Introduction

Mekoflox-Forte Oral Suspension is a combination of three active ingredients, including ofloxacin and metronidazole, which are antibiotics, and simethicone, a gas-absorbing agent. It is used to treat bacterial infections in children, including those of the teeth, lungs, gastrointestinal tract, urinary tract, and genital tract.

Mekoflox-Forte Oral Suspension should be given to children as directed by the doctor. It is important to complete the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve before finishing the medication.

The antibiotic ingredients in Mekoflox-Forte Oral Suspension interfere with the genetic material of bacteria, killing the infection-causing bacteria and preventing their growth. Simethicone binds with gas bubbles, aiding in their removal and providing relief from stomach pain and bloating.
