How ZOXAN 500MG TABLET 10'S Works
- ZOXAN 500MG TABLET 10'S inhibits bacterial DNA replication by targeting essential enzymes, preventing bacterial growth and eliminating infections.
- ZOXAN 500MG TABLET 10'S exerts its antibacterial effect by inhibiting DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, two essential enzymes involved in bacterial DNA replication, recombination, and repair.
