Broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent from the group of fluoroquinolones. It acts on the bacterial enzyme DNA gyrase, which provides supercoiling and, thus, the stability of bacterial DNA (destabilization of DNA chains leads to their death). It has a bactericidal effect.
The drug is active against microorganisms that produce -lactamases and fast-growing atypical mycobacteria.

With caution, a drug should be prescribed for atherosclerosis of cerebral vessels, cerebrovascular accident (history), chronic renal failure, organic central nervous system lesions.
Special instructions
Not a drug of choice for treating pneumococcal pneumonia, not indicated for the treatment of acute tonsillitis.
During the treatment period, it is necessary to refrain from driving vehicles and engaging in potentially hazardous activities that require an increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions. Do not drink alcohol.
Against the background of treatment with the drug, hygienic tampons such as Tampax should not be used, due to the increased risk of thrush.
During treatment, the course of myasthenia gravis, frequent porphyria attacks in susceptible patients are possible.
False negative results are possible with bacteriological diagnosis of tuberculosis (prevents the release of Mycobacterium tuberculosis).
Dosage and administration
Inside, before or during a meal, whole, washed down with water. Doses are selected individually depending on the location and severity of the infection, as well as the sensitivity of microorganisms, the general condition of the patient, and liver and kidney function.
Adults – 200-800 mg per day, course of treatment – 7-10 days, frequency of use – 2 times a day. Dose up to 400 mg – in 1 dose, preferably in the morning. With gonorrhea – 400 mg once.
In patients with impaired renal function (with Cl creatinine 5020 ml / min), a single dose should be taken 1 time per day or 50% of the average dose 2 times a day. With Cl creatinine less than 20 ml / min, a single dose is 200 mg, then 100 mg per day every other day.
With hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, 100 mg every 24 hours. The maximum daily dose for liver failure is 400 mg.
The duration of the course of treatment is determined by the sensitivity of the pathogen and the clinical picture of the treatment should be continued for at least 3 days after the disappearance of the symptoms of the disease and complete normalization of temperature. In the treatment of salmonellosis, the course of treatment is 7-8 days, with uncomplicated infections of the lower urinary tract – 3-5 days.
For children – only for health reasons, if it is impossible to replace with other drugs. The average daily dose is 7.5 mg / kg, the maximum is 15 mg / kg.

Drug Interactions
Compatible with the following infusion solutions: isotonic sodium chloride solution, Ringer’s solution, 5% fructose solution, 5% dextrose (glucose) solution.
Do not mix with heparin (risk of precipitation).
Food products, antacids containing Al3 +, Ca2 +, Mg2 + or iron salts reduce the absorption of ofloxacin, forming insoluble complexes (the interval between doses of these drugs should be at least 2 hours).
Reduces clearance of theophylline by 25% (with simultaneous use, the dose of theophylline should be reduced).
Cimetidine, furosemide, methotrexate and tubular secretion blocking drugs increase the concentration of ofloxacin in the plasma.
Increases the concentration of glibenclamide in plasma.
When taken with vitamin K antagonists, it is necessary to monitor the blood coagulation system.
When prescribed with NSAIDs, nitroimidazole derivatives and methylxanthine, the risk of developing neurotoxic effects increases.
When given concomitantly with glucocorticoids, the risk of tendon rupture increases, especially in the elderly.
When prescribed with drugs that alkalinize urine (carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, sodium bicarbonate), the risk of crystalluria and nephrotic effects increases.
Overdose
