Description :

Ciprofloxacin Lactate is an antibiotic that has been used to medicate polymer wound dressing. Ciprofloxacin Lactate has been shown to produce high and sustained serum bactericidal titers against highly susceptible bacteria.
Chemical Formula: Ciprofloxacin is C17H18FN3O3, and its lactate form incorporates lactic acid to improve solubility and stability.
Molecular Weight: Ciprofloxacin alone is 331.35 g/mol. The molecular weight of ciprofloxacin lactate will be slightly higher due to the lactate component.
Oral: Ciprofloxacin is commonly administered orally in tablet or suspension form.
Intravenous: Ciprofloxacin lactate is specifically used for intravenous administration in hospital settings.
Common: Nausea, diarrhea, headache, and dizziness.
Serious: Tendon rupture, particularly of the Achilles tendon, and other severe side effects like allergic reactions and potential for Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea.
