View company portfolio →What Ciof (Ofloxacin) is used for
Ofloxacin is an antibiotic from the quinolone (fluoroquinolone) group, the same family as ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin. It kills the bacteria that cause an infection. It comes as tablets for infections inside the body and as eye drops for eye infections. Because the tablets can cause rare but serious and sometimes long-lasting side effects, UK guidance says they should only be used when the usual antibiotics are not suitable.
- Urine infections, including bladder and kidney infections
- Chest infections, such as pneumonia and flare-ups of bronchitis or COPD
- Some genital and sexually transmitted infections in men and women, such as infections of the urethra or cervix, and gonorrhoea when tests show the germ is sensitive
- Specialist use in UK hospitals for some infections of the testicles or prostate (epididymitis or prostatitis) and pelvic inflammatory disease, on the advice of an infection or sexual health specialist
- Eye infections such as bacterial conjunctivitis and corneal ulcers (as eye drops)
Get medical help straight away if
- Call an ambulance or go to the emergency department for sudden, severe pain in the stomach, chest or back. This can be a sign of a tear or bulge in the main blood vessel (aorta).
- Get emergency help for signs of a severe allergic reaction: swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat, trouble breathing or swallowing, or hives.
- Get emergency help for fits (seizures), or for any thoughts of harming yourself or ending your life. Mental health changes can happen even after the first tablet.
- Stop taking it and contact a doctor straight away for pain or swelling in a tendon, often near the ankle. Rest the area. This can happen even months after stopping.
