Medical Description

Adquin OZ tablet is a combination medicine used in adults for selected bacterial and parasitic infections, including some digestive, urinary, gynaecological and respiratory infections. It contains ofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, and ornidazole, an antiprotozoal medicine that also acts against certain bacteria that grow without much oxygen. Ofloxacin blocks bacterial enzymes needed for copying genetic material, while ornidazole damages the genetic material of susceptible parasites and bacteria. The tablet is taken by mouth only when prescribed, and it should not be used for viral illnesses.

Driving

Driving

Adquin OZ tablet may cause dizziness, sleepiness or visual disturbance. Do not drive or operate machinery until you feel fully alert.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Avoid alcohol during treatment and for the period advised after the last tablet because ornidazole may cause flushing, nausea, vomiting or headache with alcohol.

Directions for Use

Take this medicine as a whole with sufficient water. Do not crush or chew the tablet. Take it on an empty stomach unless your prescriber says otherwise. Follow the prescribed course and do not stop early without medical advice. Keep antacids and mineral supplements separate as advised by your doctor or pharmacist.

Dosage

Overdose

Taking too much may cause nausea, vomiting, dizziness, restlessness or other nervous-system symptoms. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it is time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

In this combination, ofloxacin blocks bacterial enzymes needed to copy and separate genetic material, so susceptible bacteria cannot multiply. The second ingredient, ornidazole, is changed inside certain parasites and low-oxygen bacteria into compounds that damage their genetic material. Together, the medicines can clear selected bacterial and parasitic infections.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way Adquin OZ tablet works. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, vitamins and supplements you take. In particular, antacids and iron, calcium, magnesium or zinc products can reduce ofloxacin absorption. Also mention medicines that affect heart rhythm, seizure medicines, diabetes medicines, blood thinners, corticosteroids and medicines affecting the nervous system.

Interactions with food items

Avoid alcohol during treatment and for the period advised after the last tablet because ornidazole may cause flushing, nausea, vomiting or headache with alcohol. Do not take the tablet with mineral supplements or antacids unless a healthcare professional confirms the timing.
