About this product

Overview

Profox 125mg Syrup contains the active ingredient Ciprofloxacin. It belongs to a class of antibiotics known as fluoroquinolones and is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Ciprofloxacin works by inhibiting the growth and multiplication of bacteria, thereby helping to eliminate the infection.

  1. Ciprofloxacin: Ciprofloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that effectively targets a wide range of bacteria. It inhibits the bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes, preventing DNA replication and ultimately leading to bacterial cell death.

Side Effects

Profox 125mg Syrup may cause certain side effects. Common side effects associated with this medication include:

  1. Gastrointestinal effects: Ciprofloxacin can cause gastrointestinal side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. It is important to stay well-hydrated and inform your healthcare professional if these side effects become severe or persistent.
  2. Central nervous system effects: Some individuals may experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, or sleep disturbances while taking Profox Syrup.
  3. Skin reactions: In rare cases, Ciprofloxacin may cause skin reactions such as rash, itching, or hives. Seek medical attention if any skin reactions occur.
  4. Tendon damage: There is a rare risk of tendon damage, including tendon rupture, associated with the use of Ciprofloxacin. This risk is increased in elderly individuals and those concurrently using corticosteroids. If you experience any tendon pain or inflammation, discontinue the medication and consult a healthcare professional.
  5. Photosensitivity: Ciprofloxacin can increase the sensitivity of the skin to sunlight, leading to sunburn or skin rash. It is advisable to use appropriate sun protection measures while taking Profox Syrup.
  6. Allergic reactions: Although rare, some individuals may develop allergic reactions to Ciprofloxacin. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience symptoms such as rash, itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing.

It’s important to note that not everyone experiences these side effects, and they are generally well-tolerated. However, if you experience any severe or persistent side effects, it is important to consult a healthcare professional.

When Not to Use

There are certain situations in which the use of Profox 125mg Syrup should be avoided. These include:

  1. Hypersensitivity: Individuals who are allergic to Ciprofloxacin or any other fluoroquinolone antibiotics should not use Profox.
  2. Children and adolescents: Profox 125mg Syrup is generally not recommended for use in children and adolescents, as it can affect bone development.
  3. Pregnancy and breastfeeding: The safety of Profox 125mg Syrup during pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been well-established. It is important to discuss the potential risks and benefits with a healthcare professional before using this medication in such situations.
  4. Tendon disorders: Individuals with a history of tendon disorders or tendon damage associated with fluoroquinolone use should avoid Profox Syrup.

Always follow the prescribed dosage and duration as advised by a healthcare professional. Profox 125mg Syrup is typically taken orally. If you have any concerns or questions regarding its use, consult a healthcare professional for guidance.
