• Inhibition of Bacterial Enzymes: Norfloxacin works by inhibiting two essential bacterial enzymes - DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV.
• Prevention of Bacterial Replication: By halting the action of these enzymes, Norfloxacin prevents bacteria from replicating, repairing, and transcribing their DNA.
