It is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections including respiratory tract infections, urinary tract infections, skin infections, and gastrointestinal infections.
The mechanism of action involves inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes, which are essential for bacterial DNA replication and repair, thereby stopping bacterial growth.

Dosage varies depending on the type and severity of infection but typically involves taking one or two tablets daily, as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Common side effects can include nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, and headache.
It is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to ciprofloxacin or other fluoroquinolones.
Patients are advised to avoid excessive exposure to sunlight or UV light during treatment due to the risk of photosensitivity reactions.
