Application Number: | 07/478,405 |
Patent Claims: |
1. A method for combatting infectious diseases caused by the genus campylobater which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an antibiotially-effective amount of a
compound of the formula ##STR3## wherein R.sup.1 stands for hydrogen, methoxy or triflouromethyl; R.sup.2 and R.sup.3, being the same or different from each other, stand for hydrogen or methyl; and R.sup.4 stands for optionally substituted hydrocarbon
residue and n denotes 0 or 1, or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof.
2. A method according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen. 3. A method according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.3 is hydrogen. 4. A method according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.4 is fluorinated alkyl group. 5. A method according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.4 is fluorinated alkyl group. 6. A method according to claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is fluorinated alkyl group. 7. A method according to claim 1, wherein the compound is 2-{3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)pyrid-2-yl}methylsulfinylbenzimidazol e. 8. A method according to claim l, wherein the compound is 2-{3-methyl-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxy)pyrid-2-yl}methylthiobenzimidazole. 9.
