What is nadifloksasin?

Nadifloxacin is a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic used for the treatment of bacterial skin infections such as impetigo, folliculitis, and acne vulgaris. It works by inhibiting DNA synthesis in bacteria, which prevents the growth and spread of the infection. Nadifloxacin is available in topical formulations such as creams, gels, and lotions for topical application and should not be taken orally. It is considered safe and effective when used as directed by a healthcare professional. However, like all antibiotics, it may cause side effects such as skin irritation, itching, and redness. It is important to use nadifloxacin only under the supervision of a doctor to avoid misuse and the development of antibiotic resistance.
