What is Norflox 400 used for? I was prescribed it for an infection, but I’m not sure if it’s only for urinary problems or also for stomach infections. Can someone explain what it’s mainly used for?

Dear Reader,
It is completely understandable to seek clarity about a medication you’ve been prescribed, and Norflox 400 is an antibiotic primarily used to treat certain bacterial infections. While it is commonly used to treat bacterial urinary tract infections (UTIs), it can also be prescribed by your doctor for other specific bacterial infections, including those affecting the intestines or prostate, as well as conditions like traveler’s diarrhea. Therefore, its use is not strictly limited to only urinary problems, but rather depends on the specific type of bacteria causing your infection and its location in the body.
The important thing is that antibiotics like Norflox 400 must be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor, including the dose and duration, to ensure the infection is completely cleared and to prevent the development of antibiotic resistance. If you have any ongoing concerns about your specific diagnosis, the choice of medication, or how to take it, please discuss them in detail with your prescribing doctor for personalized guidance.
Wishing you good health.
