January 2024: The UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) further limited the use of fluoroquinolone antibiotics. The class of antibiotics should now only be used in situations when other antibiotics that are commonly recommended for the infection are inappropriate, e.g. when other options are contraindicated or the infection is proving resistant. Previous guidance stated that fluoroquinolones should not be prescribed for non-severe or self-limiting infections.
