Ciprofloxacin
The active substance is ciprofloxacin, a synthetic quinolone antibiotic. Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic of the fluoroquinolone group of antibiotics. It is used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections, including pneumonia, sinusitis, urinary tract infections, and skin infections.
Ciprofloxacin works by inhibiting the enzymes that make DNA. DNA can be broken down in the body and is thought to affect cell division, cell growth, and cell death. It is therefore often used in the treatment of bacterial infections.
It is also sometimes used in combination with other antibiotics to treat certain types of infections. It is also used to treat a range of fungal infections, including thrush, dermatophyte, and fungal infections of the skin.
It is important to note that ciprofloxacin does not cure a bacterial infection. However, it can still be effective in treating other infections.
There is no guarantee that ciprofloxacin will work for your specific infection. However, it is still important to use it as directed by your doctor.
