About Azoflox OZ Syrup
Azoflox OZ Syrup belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections of the urinary tract, bacterial infections by inflammation of the peritoneum, eye and ear infections, skin and soft tissue infections, sexually transmitted infections, respiratory infections, vaginal infections, protozoan infections, intra-abdominal infections, and infections during surgical procedures. It is also indicated in the treatment of diarrhoea of mixed infections in adults.
Azoflox OZ Syrup is a combination of two antibiotic drugs, namely: Ofloxacin and Ornidazole. Ofloxacin inhibits DNA gyrase which is required for the replication, transcription, and repair of the DNA. Ornidazole inhibits protein synthesis and leads to cell death, thereby kills the bacteria. Together, Azoflox OZ Syrup helps in treating bacterial infections.
Take Azoflox OZ Syrup as prescribed. In some cases, Azoflox OZ Syrup may cause side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headache, and dizziness. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side-effects persist or worsen.
Talk to your doctor if you experience pain in tendons, swelling, and inflammation as Azoflox OZ Syrup is associated with an increased risk of tendon rupture and tendonitis. Consult your doctor before taking Azoflox OZ Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Azoflox OZ Syrup may cause dizziness and drowsiness, so drive only if you are alert. Avoid alcohol consumption while taking Azoflox OZ Syrup as it may cause increased dizziness. Azoflox OZ Syrup is not recommended for use in children.

Azoflox OZ Syrup may cause photosensitivity (sensitivity to sunlight) and can make you sunburn easily. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight or tanning beds. Always wear protective clothing and sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher before going out.
It is recommended to complete the course of Azoflox OZ Syrup even if you feel better as it is an antibiotic, and leaving it in between may lead to even severe infection. To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Azoflox OZ Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed it.
Co-administration of magnesium and aluminium-containing antacids, sucralfate, and iron-containing preparations with Azoflox OZ Syrup may reduce the absorption. Therefore, you are advised to take Azoflox OZ Syrup two hours before such preparations.
Do not take Azoflox OZ Syrup on your own as self-medication may lead to antibiotic-resistance in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections.
Consult your doctor before taking Azoflox OZ Syrup if you have diabetes, as Azoflox OZ Syrup may cause hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar levels). Regularly monitor blood sugar levels while taking Azoflox OZ Syrup to avoid unpleasant events.
