About QURE OZ TABLET

QURE OZ TABLET belongs to the class of 'antibiotics', primarily used to treat diarrhoea and dysentery. It helps treat various bacterial and parasitic infections, such as pneumonia, bronchitis, intestinal, vaginal, urinary tract infections and genital infections. Diarrhoea is a condition that causes the frequent passing of loose or watery stools. Dysentery is an intestinal inflammation that leads to severe diarrhoea accompanied by mucus or blood in the stools. Bacterial infections are caused due to the multiplication of harmful bacteria inside or on the body.

QURE OZ TABLET contains two antibiotic medicines, namely: Levofloxacin and Ornidazole. Levofloxacin belongs to a class of drugs called quinolone antibiotics. It works by inhibiting an enzyme called gyrase, which is responsible for the growth and development of bacterial DNA. Ornidazole is an anti-amoebic/ amebicide (kills amoeba that causes amoebic dysentery) and antiprotozoal (fights against protozoal infections) medicine. It also exerts antibacterial action and kills harmful bacteria and parasites (amoeba) by damaging their DNA by interfering with the protein formation process.

Please give QURE OZ TABLET in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor based on the child’s medical condition. QURE OZ TABLET is generally safe to use. However, some children may experience side effects like nausea, loss of appetite, constipation, diarrhoea, trouble sleeping, dizziness, and headache. Most of these side effects of QURE OZ TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

If the child is allergic to QURE OZ TABLET or any of its ingredients, please inform your doctor. Do not suddenly stop this medicine to avoid unpleasant side effects and sudden withdrawal symptoms.
