Description

Ozenoxacin is used to treat impetigo (a skin infection caused by bacteria) in adults and children 2 months of age and older. Ozenoxacin is in a class of medications called antibacterials. It works by killing and stopping the growth of bacteria on the skin. To date, ozenoxacin has been used in trials studying the treatment of impetigo. As of December 11, 2017 the FDA approved Ferrer Internacional S.A.'s Xepi (ozenoxacin 1%) as a topically applied cream indicated for the treatment of impetigo caused by Staphylococccus aureus or Streptococcus pyogenes in adult and pediatric patients 2 months of age and older.


Ozenoxacin is a novel, nonfluorinated quinolone antibiotic discovered by Toyama Chemical Co. Ltd. and developed by Maruho Co. Ltd. Ozenoxacin was approved by the PMDA of Japan in September 2015 for the treatment of acne and skin infections. Ozenoxacin shows potent antibacterial activity against anaerobic and aerobic, gram-positive and -negative bacteria, especially those implicated in superficial skin infections such as S. aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Propionibacterium acnes. The mechanism of action of ozenoxacin involves the drug’s affinity for DNA gyrase and DNA topoisomerase IV and upon binding triggers bacterial apoptosis.


ChEBI: Ozenoxacin is a member of quinolines.
