How
OFTHICS 200 Works
OFTHICS 200 contains Ofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibacterial medicine:
DNA gyrase inhibition: Ofloxacin inhibits
bacterial DNA gyrase, interfering with DNA supercoiling and replication.
Topoisomerase IV inhibition: It also inhibits
topoisomerase IV, affecting separation of replicated bacterial DNA.
Clinical response depends on infection site, organism susceptibility,
dose, treatment duration and individual patient factors.
Dose
selection and treatment duration must follow the approved product label and
prescribing clinician's advice.
Dosage
and Direction for Use
Use OFTHICS 200 exactly as prescribed. Dose and duration
depend on the diagnosed infection, kidney function, age, clinical response and
other patient factors.
Swallow
the tablet with water at the time and frequency directed by the prescriber.
Maintain appropriate hydration unless otherwise advised.
Complete the prescribed course unless the treating healthcare
professional advises otherwise. Renal impairment may require dose adjustment.
Possible
Side Effects
Possible
unwanted effects may include:
·
Nausea, diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort or vomiting
·
Headache, dizziness, insomnia or other central nervous system symptoms
·
Skin rash, itching or photosensitivity reactions can occur
·
Fluoroquinolones have important warnings including tendon inflammation
or rupture, peripheral neuropathy, central nervous system effects,
blood-glucose disturbances and QT-related cardiac rhythm effects
Persistent or troublesome adverse effects should be discussed with the
treating healthcare professional.
Precautions
and Contraindications
Before
using OFTHICS
200, the
prescriber should review quinolone allergy, kidney function, tendon history,
neurologic history, cardiac rhythm risk and all concomitant medicines.
Important precautions include:
·
Do not use in patients with known hypersensitivity to Ofloxacin or other
quinolone antibacterials according to approved prescribing information.
·
Fluoroquinolones can cause serious and potentially persistent adverse
reactions involving tendons, muscles, joints, peripheral nerves and the central
nervous system.
·
Use caution in patients with significant renal impairment because dose
adjustment may be necessary.
·
Use caution in patients with QT prolongation, electrolyte abnormalities,
seizure risk or myasthenia gravis according to approved prescribing
information.
·
Antibiotic-associated diarrhoea, including C. difficile-associated
disease, can occur during or after antibacterial treatment.
·
Pregnancy, breastfeeding, children, older adults and patients with
significant chronic conditions require individualized professional guidance;
fluoroquinolone use has specific age and risk considerations.
·
Drug Interaction Considerations
·
Ofloxacin absorption can be reduced by antacids and products containing
aluminium, magnesium, iron, zinc or other multivalent cations when taken too
closely together. Clinically relevant interactions may also involve
anticoagulants, glucose-lowering medicines, QT-prolonging drugs and other
therapies.
