The present invention relates to a method for the treatment of a bacterial infection comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid or base addition salt thereof, a stereochemically isomeric form thereof or a N-oxide form thereof, wherein R1 is hydrogen, halo, polyhaloC1-6alkyl, C1-6alkyl, Ar or Het; p is an integer equal to 1 or 2; R2 is C1-6alkyloxy, C1-6alkyloxyC1-6alkyloxy or C1-6alkylthio; R3 is Ar, Het or Het1; R4 and R5 each independently are hydrogen, C1-6alkyl or benzyl; or R4 and R5 together and including the N to which they are attached may form a radical selected from the group of pyrrolidinyl, 2-pyrrolinyl, 3-pyrrolinyl, pyrrolyl, imidazolidinyl, pyrazolidinyl, 2-imidazolinyl, 2-pyrazolinyl, imidazolyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl, piperidinyl, pyridinyl, piperazinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrimidinyl, pyrazinyl, triazinyl, morpholinyl and thiomorpholinyl, each of said rings may optionally be substituted with C1-6alkyl, halo, polyhaloC1-6alkyl, hydroxy, hydroxyC1-6alkyl, C1-6alkyloxy, amino, mono- or di(C1-6alkyl)amino, C1-6alkylthio, C1-6alkyloxyC1-6alkyl, C1-6alkylthioC1-6alkyl or pyrimidinyl; R6 is hydrogen, halo, polyhaloC1-6alkyl, C1-6alkyl, C1-6alkyloxy, C1-6alkylthio; or two vicinal R6 radicals may be taken together to form a bivalent radical of formula —CH═CH—CH═CH—; r is an integer equal to 1 or 2; R7 is hydrogen, C1-6alkyl, Ar, Het or Het1; provided that to bacterial infection is other than a Mycobacterial infection.
