Tablets
Norfloxacin belongs to a group of broad spectrum antibiotics called the quinolones. It works by entering the bacterial cell
and inhibiting a chemical called DNA-gyrase which is involved in the production of genetic material (DNA). This therefore
prevents the bacteria from reproducing and their growth is stopped.
Norfloxacin reaches high levels in the urine and so is indicated in the treatment of urinary tract infections.
Norfloxacin is indicated for the treatment of infections of the urinary system.
Even if your condition improves Norfloxacin is important to complete the indicated course of norfloxacin.
The most common side effects are feeling sick, diarrhoea, dizziness and headache.
Norfloxacin is indicated to treat bacterial infections of the urinary system. It works by killing the bacteria that cause
the infection.
Antibiotic
Norfloxacin is an antibacterial medication indicated to treat infections of the urinary tract, including:
- Prostatitis (inflammation of the prostate gland);
- Cystitis (inflammation of the inner lining of the bladder caindicated by a bacterial infection);
- Certain sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea;
Norfloxacin is not given for the treatment of syphilis. When indicated in high doses for a short period of time to treat
gonorrhea, Norfloxacin may actually mask or delay the symptoms of syphilis. Your doctor may perform certain tests
for syphilis at the time of diagnosing gonorrhea, and after treatment with Norfloxacin.
Antibiotic
Norfloxacin is indicated to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Norfloxacin belongs to a class of drugs called quinolone
antibiotics. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. This antibiotic only treats bacterial infections. It will not work
for viral infections (e.g., common cold, flu). Unnecessary use or overuse of any antibiotic can lead to its decreased
effectiveness.
Indications
Infection of the bladder or tubes that pass urine (urinary tract infection)
Take Norfloxacin by mouth, usually twice a day, at least 1 hour before or at least 2 hours after a meal or dairy
products (e.g., milk, yogurt). Take with a full glass of water (8 ounces or 240 milliliters). Drink plenty of fluids while
taking Norfloxacin unless your doctor tells you otherwise. The dosage is based on your medical condition. Take Norfloxacin 2
hours before or 2 hours after taking any products containing magnesium, aluminum, or calcium. Some examples include:
- Antacids;
- Certain forms of didanosine (chewable/dispersible buffered tablets or pediatric oral solution);
- Quinapril;
- Vitamins/minerals;
Calcium-enriched juices, sucralfate, bismuth subsalicylate, iron, and zinc are also included. These products bind with
norfloxacin preventing its full absorption. Antibiotics work best when the amount of drug in your body is kept at a constant
level. Therefore, take this drug at evenly spaced intervals. Continue to take Norfloxacin until the full-indicated amount
is finished even if symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the medication too early may allow bacteria to continue to
grow, which may result in a relapse of the infection. Inform your doctor if your condition persists or worsens.
Do not share Norfloxacin with others. Norfloxacin has been indicated for your current condition only. Do not use it later
for another infection unless told to do so by your doctor. A different medication may be necessary in those cases. Laboratory
and/or medical tests (e.g., kidney function test, blood counts, cultures) may be performed periodically to monitor your
progress or check for side effects. Consult your doctor for more details.
