Abstract

The use of quinolones in the treatment of non-serious community-acquired methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is discussed. The new C8-modified quinolones may be suitable for such treatment but controlled trials should be carried out to ensure that the pharmacokinetics are such that there is little risk of resistance developing.
