Samenvatting

Norfloxacine (Noroxin®) is een gefluorideerde chinolonverbinding. Het bactericide-effect berust op beïnvloeding van de DNA-synthese door remming van het bacteriële DNA-gyrase. Het brede werkingsspectrum van de chinolonen omvat bijna alle Gramnegatieve en een aantal Gram-positieve bacteriën.
