Auroflox Ophthalmic Solution 5ml contain ofloxacin (0.3%), which acts on your body as follows:

• Inhibits bacterial enzymes: Ofloxacin works by inhibiting certain enzymes in bacteria, namely DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. These enzymes play a crucial role in unwinding and duplicating bacterial DNA, which is necessary for the bacteria to reproduce and spread.

• Stops bacterial growth: By blocking these key enzymes, ofloxacin effectively halts the multiplication and spread of the infection within your body.

• Broad-spectrum activity: Ofloxacin can act against a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. This means it can manage infections caused by different types of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, among others.
