Oxet 100 MG Suspension 60 ML contains ofloxacin (100 mg) acting as follows:

• Inhibiting Bacterial Enzymes: Ofloxacin works by blocking two crucial bacterial enzymes - DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. These enzymes are vital for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair and recombination.

• Killing Bacteria: By inhibiting these enzymes, ofloxacin prevents bacterial DNA activities leading to cell death. This action makes it effective against most gram-negative bacteria, some gram-positive bacteria, and certain anaerobes.

• Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic: As a broad-spectrum antibiotic, it has activity against a wide range of bacteria making it useful in managing various types of bacterial infections.
