What is Cipcoz 500 mg

Cipcoz 500 mg includes Ciprofloxacin, a broad-spectrum Fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to manage several bacterial infections, including respiratory, urinary tract, gastrointestinal, skin, and soft tissue infections. This antibacterial medicine inhibits bacterial replication and growth and is effective against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial infections.

These Ciprofloxacin tablets may interact with antacids, dairy products, multivitamins, and mineral supplements containing calcium, magnesium, aluminum, or iron, affecting absorption and efficacy. It should not be used with blood thinners (e.g., Warfarin) since this may raise the risk of bleeding or with Theophylline, which can cause significant adverse effects, such as seizures. 

Furthermore, Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), like Ibuprofen, may raise the risk of central nervous system damage. Avoid Cipcoz if you have a history of Fluoroquinolone-related tendon issues. It can induce Tendonitis or rupture, especially in older persons or those using steroids. 

People with Epilepsy or central nervous system diseases should also use this antibiotic with caution. To ensure safe and effective usage, always finish the course, avoid sudden discontinuation, and strictly adhere to your healthcare provider's recommendations.

Leeford Healthcare Ltd. primarily manufactures the medicine in a GMP-compliant facility.

What are the benefits of Cipcoz 500 mg

Cipcoz, which contains Ciprofloxacin, operates by blocking bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, which are required for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, and repair. The medication blocks these enzymes, preventing bacteria from growing and repairing themselves, eventually killing bacteria and addressing the medical condition. 

It is effective against a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, making it a useful therapy for several infections, including those of the respiratory tract, urinary system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and soft tissues. 

However, it is ineffective against viral illnesses, such as the common cold or flu, and should only be administered with medical supervision to avoid antibiotic resistance.
