Comparative Analysis of Adverse Drug Reactions Associated with Fluoroquinolones and Other Antibiotics: A Retrospective Pharmacovigilance Study
The FQs drug class exhibited a higher incidence of ADRs than other ABs. Regularly assessing the safety of ABs is crucial to improve public and healthcare providers' awareness of the correct utilization of ABs and to limit the use of FQs to infections that cannot be effectively managed with alternative ABs.
