CIPRO 500MG TABS x14 M&B

M & B Cipro is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that contains Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride as its active pharmaceutical ingredient. It also contains other inactive ingredients called excipients in sufficient quantities. Ciprofloxacin is an extremely
broad spectrum antimicrobial agent and acts by inhibiting a subunit
of DNA gyrase which is essential in the reproduction of bacterial DNA. It comes in different dosage forms and strength. Available dosage forms of ciprofloxacin include tablets, infusions, eye/ear drops, ointments, oral suspension, etc.

• M & B Cipro is indicated for the treatment of single or mixed infections caused by two or more susceptible organisms.

• Becauses antibacterial concentrations of Ciprofloxacin are obtained in serum and body tissues as well as in the urine following administration by mouth, Ciprofloxacin has been suggested for use in the treatment of a wide range of infections caused by susceptible organisms including infections of the urinary, respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts, gonorrhoea and septicaemia.

• The extensive  tissue penetration of Ciprofloxacin combined with its enhanced antibacterial activity (including antipseudomonal activity), enables Ciprofloxacin to be used alone (pending sensitivity results) or in
  combination with an Aminoglycoside or with beta-lactam antibiotics for instance when severe neutropenia is present or with an antibiotic
  active against anaerobes where the presence of Bacteroides fragilis
  is suspected.
