About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Nokicef-O Tablet is a combination antibiotic medication, containing Cefixime (200mg) and Ofloxacin (200mg). Indicated for the treatment of various bacterial infections, it exhibits broad-spectrum activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Cefixime, a cephalosporin antibiotic, primarily targets cell wall synthesis, while Ofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone, inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. This dual mechanism of action increases the therapeutic efficacy against resistant strains. However, it should be prescribed with caution in patients with a history of hypersensitivity to these antibiotics or quinolone derivatives. Potential side effects may include gastrointestinal disturbances, headaches, and in rare cases, liver and central nervous system disorders. It's essential to complete the full course of treatment to ensure bacterial eradication and prevent recurrence. Consult a healthcare professional for proper dosage and monitoring.
