More Info: Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride is used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections in various parts of the body. Ciprofloxacin works by inhibiting the bacterial enzyme DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, which are essential for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. This action prevents the bacteria from reproducing and repairing themselves, leading to their death.
