摘要
Severe community-acquired pneumonia remains a leading cause of death in the UK despite the widespred use of recommended antibiotics. This article reviews the evidence for the use of fluoroquinolones in the treatment of severe community-acquired peumonia and argues for the inclusion of these agents in future guidelines.
