To study the efficacy of moxifloxacin treatment for tuberculosis, we utilized a novel cartridge system to simulate in vivo pharmacokinetics. We found this system to be a robust method for modeling in vivo pharmacokinetics and present data supporting the utility of intermittent moxifloxacin treatment as a component of antituberculosis chemotherapy.
