Oflobert-Uti Tablet Substitute

Oflobert-Uti Tablet is a combination of two drugs, namely: Ofloxacin (quinolone antibiotic) and Flavoxate (anti-spasmodic). Ofloxacin prevents the bacteria from repairing and reproducing themselves, thereby kills the bacteria. Flavoxate relaxes the muscles of the urinary bladder, thereby helps in preventing frequent urination, excessive or uncontrolled urination.

Oflobert-Uti Tablet contains ofloxacin which may cause photosensitivity (sensitivity to sunlight) in some people. Always wear sunscreen before going out and avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Oflobert-Uti Tablet may cause stomach upset as a side-effect. To avoid this, take Oflobert-Uti Tablet with food.

Avoid drinking tea, coffee (caffeinated drinks), and carbonated beverages as they might increase the urine flow and cause worsening of symptoms.

Oflobert-Uti Tablet contains an antibiotic that kills or prevents bacterial growth, so in case some good intestinal bacteria which aid in digestion might also get killed, due to this diarrhoea might occur as a side-effect of Oflobert-Uti Tablet. Drink lots of fluids and eat non-spicy food if you experience diarrhoea. If you find blood in stools (tarry stools) or if you experience prolonged diarrhoea with abdominal pain, stop taking Oflobert-Uti Tablet and consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.
