Oflox 200 Tablet contains Ofloxacin 200 mg (as Ofloxacin) per tablet and is used for susceptible bacterial infections such as urinary tract infections. Prescription required.
Oflox 200 Tablet is a prescription medicine containing Ofloxacin 200 mg (as Ofloxacin) per tablet. Treatment of susceptible bacterial infections such as urinary tract infections, prostatitis, respiratory tract infections (e.g., bronchitis, pneumonia), gastrointestinal infections (including traveller’s diarrhoea), typhoid fever, skin and soft tissue infections, and certain sexually transmitted infections as prescribed. It belongs to the group of medicines called Fluoroquinolone antibiotic.
Take by mouth as prescribed by the doctor, usually once or twice daily. The dose and how long you take it depend on what you are being treated for and how you respond. Do not take more, or for longer, than your doctor has advised.
The side effects seen most often with Oflox 200 Tablet are nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal pain and vomiting. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.
Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how Oflox 200 Tablet works.
Treatment of susceptible bacterial infections such as urinary tract infections, prostatitis, respiratory tract infections (e.g., bronchitis, pneumonia), gastrointestinal infections (including traveller’s diarrhoea), typhoid fever, skin and soft tissue infections, and certain sexually transmitted infections as prescribed.
Most side effects of Oflox are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
Take by mouth as prescribed by the doctor, usually once or twice daily. Can be taken with or without food; take at the same time each day and complete the full course. Avoid taking with milk/dairy, antacids, or iron/calcium/zinc supplements close to the dose (keep a 2–4 hour gap).
Ofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. This blocks DNA replication and repair, leading to bacterial cell death.
Use only for bacterial infections; not effective for viral illnesses. Fluoroquinolones may cause tendonitis/tendon rupture (higher risk in elderly, steroid use), peripheral neuropathy, CNS effects (seizures, agitation), worsening of myasthenia gravis, QT prolongation/arrhythmias, and severe allergic reactions. Stop and seek medical help for tendon pain/swelling, numbness/tingling, severe diarrhoea, palpitations, or rash. Use with caution in kidney disease (dose adjustment may be needed), epilepsy/seizure disorders, and in patients with heart rhythm problems. Avoid excessive sun exposure (photosensitivity).
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
An overdose of this medicine can cause kidney injury, fits and heart rhythm disturbance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
antacids containing magnesium/aluminium, sucralfate, iron/calcium/zinc supplements (reduced absorption), NSAIDs (may increase seizure risk), corticosteroids (increased tendon rupture risk), warfarin (may increase bleeding risk), antiarrhythmics and other QT-prolonging drugs (e.g., amiodarone, sotalol, macrolides, antipsychotics), hypoglycaemic agents/insulin (blood sugar disturbances), theophylline (levels/CNS effects)
