Oflotas-200 Tablet contains ofloxacin (200 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Inhibits Bacterial Enzymes: Ofloxacin works by blocking certain enzymes in bacteria called topoisomerase IV and DNA gyrase. These enzymes are essential for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and recombination.

• Disrupts Bacterial DNA Synthesis: By interfering with these critical enzymes, ofloxacin disrupts the process of bacterial DNA synthesis. This interruption leads to a stop in the bacterial cell cycle.

• Causes Bacterial Cell Death: Once the bacterial cell cycle is halted due to disrupted DNA synthesis, it eventually leads to the death of the bacterial cells.
