Additional information

Introduction to Ofloxan-OZ

Dual Power Antibiotic for Bacterial and Parasitic Infections

Ofloxan-OZ is a powerful combination antibiotic medicine designed to treat a wide range of bacterial and protozoal infections. It combines Ofloxacin 200 mg and Ornidazole 500 mg, delivering a broad-spectrum action that effectively targets both anaerobic bacteria and protozoa.

With its synergistic formula, Ofloxan-OZ provides rapid symptom relief and complete eradication of infections such as gastrointestinal infections, dental infections, pelvic infections, and more.


Composition of Ofloxan-OZ

Potent Active Ingredients

Each tablet of Ofloxan-OZ contains:

  • Ofloxacin 200 mg – a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA replication.

  • Ornidazole 500 mg – a nitroimidazole derivative that acts against anaerobic bacteria and protozoa.

Together, these components make Ofloxan-OZ an effective dual-action therapy.


Mechanism of Action

How Ofloxan-OZ Works

The dual mechanisms include:

  • Ofloxacin inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase, halting bacterial replication.
