Mode of Action

Ofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone which inhibits bacterial topoisomerase IV and DNA gyrase enzymes required for DNA replication, transcription, repair and recombination. It has activity against a wide range of gram-negative and gram-positive microorganisms.

Interaction

Concomitant use of class IA (e.g. quinidine, procainamide) or class III (e.g. amiodarone, sotalol) antiarrhythmic agents may increase risk of QT interval prolongation. Decreased serum and urine concentrations w/ antacids containing Mg, Al or Ca. Additive antibacterial activity w/ aminoglycosides (e.g. amikacin, tobramycin). Corticosteroids may increase risk of severe tendon disorders. Increased risk of CNS stimulation (e.g. seizures) w/ NSAIDs. Higher and prolonged serum theophylline concentrations and increased risk of theophylline-related adverse effects.
