Comparative StudyTreatment of acute diarrhea with norfloxacin during Desert Storm deployment.
A retrospective study on the treatment of diarrhea in a U. S. Air Force Wing deployed to Egypt during Operation Desert Storm was conducted. ⋯ The group treated with norfloxacin was noted to become asymptomatic in one-fourth the time of the group treated conservatively. This was highly significant, statistically, and in practice. It is recommended that diarrhea be treated aggressively during deployments to third world countries.
