About Oflotas Oz 100
Oflotas Oz 100 belongs to the group of medicines called antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections. It is indicated in the treatment of shigellosis, dental infections, post-surgical infections, diarrhoea, and mixed infections of the cervix and vagina. A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter, multiply, and infect the body. Harmful bacteria produce toxins, which can damage tissue and cause sickness.
Oflotas Oz 100 is a combination of two antibiotic drugs: Ofloxacin and Ornidazole. Ofloxacin prevents the bacteria from repairing and dividing. Ornidazole damages the DNA of the infection-causing bacteria. Together, Oflotas Oz 100 kills the bacteria and helps in treating bacterial infections.
Oflotas Oz 100 will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. In some cases, Oflotas Oz 100 may cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, headache, and dizziness. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and 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 Oflotas Oz 100 may increase the risk of tendon rupture and tendonitis. Consult your doctor before taking Oflotas Oz 100 if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Oflotas Oz 100 may cause dizziness and drowsiness, so drive only if you are alert. Avoid alcohol consumption while on treatment with Oflotas Oz 100 as it may cause increased dizziness. Oflotas Oz 100 is not recommended for use in children.
