タイトルまたは説明

One common use of this drug combination is in the management of gastrointestinal infections that cause diarrhea and discomfort, including infections with amoebae and protozoans. Patients can also take it for urinary tract infections, as well as fungal infections of the oral cavity and vagina. Another application for ofloxacin and ornidazole is treatment of respiratory infections like bronchitis and pneumonia complicated by the presence of aggressive bacteria. Courses of therapy may be relatively short in all these cases, typically between three and five days.
Some sexually transmitted infections, like gonorrhea and chlamydia, are also treatable with ofloxacin and ornidazole. The short course of therapy can be useful in the management of such conditions as it increases the chances that the patient will adhere to the therapy, eliminating the infectious organisms. Patients who complete their courses of drugs are less likely to experience a recurrence or contribute to the development of drug resistance that could make future infections harder to treat.
