Ofloxacin 50mg. + Metronidazole Benzoate Eq. to Met. 120mg.
The combination of Ofloxacin 50mg and Metronidazole Benzoate (Eq. to Metronidazole 120mg) is commonly used to treat a variety of bacterial and parasitic infections.
- Ofloxacin (50mg) is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial DNA replication, preventing bacterial growth and spread. It is effective against a broad range of bacterial infections, including those affecting the respiratory tract, urinary tract, skin, and soft tissues.
- Metronidazole (120mg) is an antibiotic and antiprotozoal medication used to treat infections caused by anaerobic bacteria and protozoa. It works by disrupting the DNA of the microorganisms, leading to their death. Metronidazole is commonly used for treating infections like bacterial vaginosis, gastrointestinal infections (such as those caused by Clostridium difficile), and infections of the skin, mouth, and intestines.
This combination is particularly effective for treating mixed infections where both bacterial and anaerobic pathogens are involved, such as in certain intra-abdominal infections, pelvic infections, and some gastrointestinal infections.
