Recommendations for Use

According to the results of the medical studies, Avelox begins acting quickly within several hours after the use of the first therapeutic dose. Therefore, the pathogenic agents cannot release a great number of toxins immediately after the effect of the drug on the cells of bacteria, and so the disease symptoms are not increased, and a patient feels better in a couple of days.

Another advantage of Avelox is a poor resistance of the pathogenic microflora. The medical studies have not found out a cross-resistance to other antibiotics. If a resistance to Avelox is developed, it will be slow and during a long-term use of the drug in high doses. Therefore, Avelox does not lose its efficiency even during the regular application.

Avelox shows an activity as to rather many acid-resistance gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, anaerobes, atypical agents (chlamydia, mycoplasma, and others).

This antibiotic shows a high activity during the treatment of the infections of the upper and lower respiratory tracts, infections of the skin and soft tissues, infections of the abdominal cavity organs, and organs of the urinary system.
