Cyprofloxacine was a cure for llhrei'sian caused by subspace turbulence. It was not replicable and, as the RIS Bouteina ran out of this medicine, it was forced to stop at Simpson's Planet to search for more cyprofloxacine. It required 1.5 million doses, which was about 10 times the supply the Bouteina left Romulus with. (RIS Bouteina: "Fundraiser")
