%X Las quinolonas son antibacterianos eficaces contra g¨¦rmenes gramnegativos y especialmente ¨²tiles para eliminar infecciones de las v¨ªas urinarias u otras localizaciones, as¨ª como tambi¨¦n para tratar a pacientes con enfermedades de transmisi¨®n sexual. Al respecto se realiz¨® un estudio sobre el uso y abuso del ciprofloxacino, por constituir un antimicrobiano com¨²nmente utilizado de forma inadecuada e indiscriminada.
