Abstract

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety rate between gatifloxacin and levofloxacin in the treatment of urinary system infection . Methods 60 patients with urinary system infection were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=30),the gatifloxacin group and the levofloxacin group .The gatifloxacin group were given gatifloxacin 0.2g iv drip,bid ,and the lecofloxacin group levofloxacin 0.2g iv drip,bid.The treatment period was 5-10d. Results The effective rate in gatifloxacin group, was 97%,and 93% in lecofloxac group 93%.The cure rates in gatifloxac group was 97% and 94% in levofloxacin group.there was no significant difference between the two groups (P0.05). Conclusion Gatifloxacin has the same efficacy as levofloxacin in the treatment of urinary system infection.
