How O Cebran M 50/100 MG Suspension 30 ML Works?

O Cebran M 50/100 MG Suspension 30 ML contains two active components:

Ofloxacin (50 mg): Ofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. It acts by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes. These enzymes are essential for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. By inhibiting these enzymes, ofloxacin causes inhibition of bacterial cell division and cell death.
Metronidazole (100 mg): Metronidazole is a nitroimidazole antibiotic. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial DNA and causing DNA damage, which ultimately leads to bacterial cell death. It's particularly effective against anaerobic bacteria and protozoa.

The combination of these two antibiotics in O Cebran M 50/100 MG Suspension 30 ML provides a synergistic effect in effectively managing a wide range of bacteria responsible for causing diarrhoea in adults.
