Ingredients:
Each coated tablet contains 250 mg of ciprofloxacin.
Mechanism of Action:
Ciprofloxacin, the active ingredient in Ciprolet tablets, is a synthetic fluoroquinolone antibiotic. It exerts its bactericidal effect by inhibiting the bacterial DNA gyrase enzyme, leading to the disruption of DNA synthesis, DNA repair, and DNA recombination. This interference ultimately prevents bacterial DNA supercoiling and replication, thereby inhibiting bacterial growth and proliferation.
Pharmacological Properties:
Ciprofloxacin exhibits a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It penetrates well into various tissues and body fluids, achieving high concentrations in the urinary tract, respiratory tract, skin, soft tissues, and bones. The bioavailability of ciprofloxacin is high, and it is primarily excreted unchanged in the urine.
