Product Information
General Information:
AdvaCare is a GMP manufacturer of Ofloxacin oral suspensions.
Ofloxacin belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics. Ofloxacin is indicated for bacterial infections. It has a unique mechanism of action and it is a potent antibiotic. Ofloxacin works by halting the multiplication of bacteria by inhibiting the repair and reproduction of their DNA. This action inhibits the bacteria growth and subsequently leads to its death. Ofloxacin is excreted unchanged via the kidneys (urine) with only 4 to 8% being excreted in the feces.
