Levofloxacin hydrochloride ear drops
Function and Efficacy
Pharmacological action Levofloxacin is the levorotatory form of ofloxacin, and its antibacterial activity is about twice that of ofloxacin. Its main mechanism of action is to inhibit the activity of bacterial topoisomerase IV and DNA gyrase (both are type II topoisomerases), hindering the replication of bacterial DNA to achieve antibacterial effect. Levofloxacin has the characteristics of broad antibacterial spectrum and strong antibacterial effect. It has strong antibacterial activity against most Enterobacteriaceae, such as Escherichia coli, Klebsiella, Serratia, Proteus, Shigella, Salmonella, Citrobacter, Acinetobacter, and Gram-negative bacteria such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Haemophilus influenzae, and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. It also has good antibacterial effect on some methicillin-sensitive Staphylococci, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, hemolytic Streptococci, and Legionella, Mycoplasma, and Chlamydia, but has poor effect on anaerobic bacteria and enterococci. Toxicological studies Genetic toxicity: The results of the Ames test, CHO/HGPRT mutation test, mouse micronucleus test, rat unscheduled DNA synthesis test (UDS), and mouse sister chromosome exchange test were all negative. The results of the in vitro CHL cell line chromosome aberration test and CHL/IU cell line sister chromosome exchange test were all positive. Carcinogenicity: Rats were given levofloxacin up to 100 mg/kg/day by dietary administration for 2 consecutive years, and no carcinogenicity was observed.
