摘要
The activity of moxifloxacin was enhanced by the addition of ethionamide but not by that of cycloserine, thiacetazone, capreomycin, para-aminosalicylic acid, or linezolid in BALB/c mice infected with a strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to isoniazid, rifampin, and six other drugs. These observations are important for the therapy of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis.
