Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare levofloxacin vs ceftriaxone impact on the cytokine production in patients with pneumococcal pneumonia
Detailed Description: Bacterial alveolar invasion is followed by a compartmentalized inflammatory response Data suggest that some antimicrobials may induce a differential release of cytokines with the potential of either accelerating or down regulating cytokine production

The aim of our study was to compare the effects of ceftriaxone compared with levofloxacin on cytokine systemic concentrations in patients with pneumococcal pneumonia
