Thirty hospitalized patients (22 men and eight women), aged between 15 and 41 years (mean = 25.4 years), with severe proven typhoid sepsis were treated with pefloxacin at daily dose of 1200 mg, divided in three doses, intravenously for the first five days and orally for the following ten days of treatment. All patients completely recovered from infection and pathogens were eradicated after 30 days of follow-up. In none of the patients was a relapse registered during the follow-up or enteric carrier state after disease. Pefloxacin therapy was well tolerated by all patients: in five patients a mild and transient epigastric pain and in one patient a mild and transient nausea were registered. Pefloxacin is a safe and effective agent for therapy of typhoid fever.

Pefloxacin (Abaktal) was used in treatment of 83 patients: 14 patients with acute pyelonephritis, 5 patients with carbuncle of the kidney, 17 patients with postoperative acute pyelonephritis, 3 patients with urosepsis, 7 patients with acute prostatitis, 18 patients with chronic pyelonephritis in the phase of active inflammation, 9 patients with exacerbation of chronic prostatitis, 3 patients with acute cystitis, 2 patients with acute urethritis and 5 patients with epididymo-orchitis. Two dosage forms of pefloxacin were used i.e. tablets of 400 mg and ampoules of 5 ml containing 400 mg of the active substance. The treatment course amounted to 7-14 days. In the patients with inflammatory infectious diseases of the lower urinary tracts (cystitis and urethritis) the treatment course amounted up to 5 days. The results of the treatment with the ampoule solutions were good and satisfactory. With the use of the tablets the results were unsatisfactory in 3 patients (8.1 per cent). Satisfactory bacteriological efficacy of the treatment was stated in 89.5 per cent of the cases. The adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and skin eruption were recorded in 5 patients (6 per cent).
