Medical Description
O2 tablet is an antibiotic medicine. It is used to treat diarrhoea due to mixed infections in adults and bacterial infections of various organs. It is a combination medicine containing ofloxacin and ornidazole as active ingredients. O2 tablet works by suppressing the growth of bacteria and killing the bacteria responsible for the infection.
