How OFLOX 100 REDUSE SYRUP 60 ML Works

  • OFLOX 100 REDUSE SYRUP 60 ML works by inhibiting the activity of enzymes responsible for bacterial DNA synthesis.
  • OFLOX 100 REDUSE SYRUP 60 ML prevents the bacteria from replicating and multiplying, ultimately leading to their death.
  • OFLOX 100 REDUSE SYRUP 60 ML belongs to a class of antibiotics called fluoroquinolones. It targets and inhibits two key bacterial enzymes, DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, that are necessary for the bacteria to replicate and divide.
