Would not recommend its use in isolation against infections. Moxifloxacinhas some anaerobic coverage while levofloxacin and ciprofloxacin
Patients with infections resistant or likely to be resistant to other therapies. Ciprofloxacin. CIPRO, g Essentially no anaerobic coverage. Useful in:
Cipro = Ciprofloxacin; Pip-Tazo = Piperacillin Routine addition of anaerobic coverage for suspected aspiration pneumonia is not recommended unless.
MSSA is covered by ciprofloxacin (levofloxacin and moxifloxacin have variable activity). Enterococcus: Ciprofloxacin has reasonable coverage for Enterococcus faecalis, but often misses Enterococcus faecium. Anaerobic coverage: Only moxifloxacin has anaerobic coverage. However, resistance may be increasing among Bacteroides fragilis.
