Zenflox Suspension contains ofloxacin (50 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:
DNA Gyrase and Topoisomerase IV Inhibition: Ofloxacin acts by blocking two enzymes in your body—DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. These enzymes are essential for bacteria to replicate their DNA.

Antacids and Mineral Supplements: Medicines like aluminium hydroxide or magnesium trisilicate, and zinc supplements may affect the absorption of Zenflox Suspension, reducing its effectiveness.
