Overview Oflogen 400mg Tablet

Ofloxin 400mg tablets are a bacterial infection treatment. Effective against infections in the urinary tract, respiratory system (including pneumonia), and skin/soft tissues, this antibiotic halts bacterial proliferation, thus resolving the infection. Dosage and duration should strictly follow your physician's instructions. Administer with or without food, consistently at the same time each day. Complete the entire course, even with symptom improvement; skipping doses is discouraged. Side effects such as nausea and stomach upset are common, usually transient, but warrant consultation if persistent or severe. Diarrhea is also possible; cessation is expected upon completion of treatment. Report prolonged diarrhea or bloody stools immediately. Prior allergies to any component contraindicate use. Seek immediate medical help for severe allergic reactions (rash, facial/tongue/lip swelling, breathing difficulties). Disclose any history of kidney disease to your doctor before commencing treatment.
