Norflox LB 400mg Tablet

Norflox LB 400mg Tablet works by inhibiting the enzymes required for bacterial DNA replication, leading to the death of the bacteria. Norfloxacin belongs to a class of antibiotics called fluoroquinolones, which are particularly effective against a wide range of bacterial infections.
