About Ciprofloxacin
Ciprofloxacin is one of the most commonly used antibiotics in Nigeria, belonging to the fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics. Fluoroquinolones work by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV — enzymes that bacteria need to copy and repair their DNA. Without these enzymes, bacteria cannot multiply and eventually die. Ciprofloxacin has a broad spectrum of activity, particularly against gram-negative bacteria, making it effective for many of the common infections seen across Nigeria, including typhoid fever, urinary tract infections, and bacterial diarrhoea.
