What is Enrofloxacin?
Active Ingredients: Enrofloxacin
Enrofloxacin Tablets are an antibiotic drug used to treat certain bacterial infections in small animals, such as poultry, birds, cats and dogs. This drug is commonly used to treat a range of bacterial infections, including those of the skin, urinary tract, and respiratory system, as well as infections that result from wounds.
Enrofloxacin belongs to the family of medicines called fluoroquinolone antibiotics. It works by inhibiting DNA and RNA synthesis. Enrofloxacin displays bactericidal activity against a wide range of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, including Staphylococcus, Escherichia coli, Pasteurella, Proteus, Campylobacter, and Klebsiella.
