Nebulized levofloxacin for chronic Burkholderia cenocepacia pulmonary infection in cystic fibrosis: A case report

Nebulized levofloxacin for chronic Burkholderia cenocepacia pulmonary infection in cystic fibrosis: A case report

We present a patient with cystic fibrosis who used nebulized levofloxacin off-label to suppress chronic Burkholderia cenocepacia pulmonary infection. The patient was initially using tobramycin inhalation powder (TIP) off-label continuously for suppression of chronic B. cenocepacia; this was changed...
