ZANOCIN DS 400MG (Ofloxacin (400mg))

Zanocin DS Tablet is an antibiotic indicated for the treatment of various bacterial infections. It is effective against infections located in the urinary tract, respiratory system (including pneumonia), skin, soft tissues, and areas such as the nose and throat. The mechanism of action involves inhibiting the proliferation of bacteria responsible for the infection, thereby facilitating recovery. It is essential to follow the prescribing physician’s guidance regarding dosage and duration of use. This medication can be taken with or without meals, but it is advisable to maintain a consistent schedule for consumption. Skipping doses can compromise the effectiveness of treatment, so it is crucial to complete the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished. Potential side effects may include nausea and abdominal discomfort, which are generally temporary but should be communicated to a healthcare professional if they persist or worsen. Diarrhea is another possible reaction, which typically resolves upon completion of the treatment course. Should diarrhea continue or if there is blood present in the stools, medical advice should be sought promptly. It is important not to take this medication if there is an allergy to any of its components. In rare cases, severe allergic reactions may occur, necessitating immediate medical intervention. Symptoms of such reactions can include rash, swelling of facial features, and respiratory difficulties. Disclosure of any history of renal issues to the healthcare provider is advised.
