ofloxacin and Sexually Transmitted Diseases, Bacterial

ofloxacin has been researched along with Sexually Transmitted Diseases, Bacterial in 9 studies

Ofloxacin: A synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent that inhibits the supercoiling activity of bacterial DNA GYRASE, halting DNA REPLICATION.
9-fluoro-3-methyl-10-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-7-oxo-2,3-dihydro-7H-[1,4]oxazino[2,3,4-ij]quinoline-6-carboxylic acid : An oxazinoquinoline that is 2,3-dihydro-7H-[1,4]oxazino[2,3,4-ij]quinolin-7-one substituted by methyl, carboxy, fluoro, and 4-methylpiperazin-1-yl groups at positions 3, 6, 9, and 10, respectively.
ofloxacin : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of levofloxacin and dextrofloxacin. It is a synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent which inhibits the supercoiling activity of bacterial DNA gyrase, halting DNA replication.

Sexually Transmitted Diseases, Bacterial: Bacterial diseases transmitted or propagated by sexual conduct.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"This study compared doxycycline with ofloxacin in the treatment of nongonococcal urethritis in men and mucopurulent cervicitis in women and compared both drugs in the treatment of infections due to Chlamydia trachomatis in both men and women."5.06Efficacy and safety of ofloxacin in the treatment of nongonococcal sexually transmitted disease. ( Batteiger, BE; Jones, RB; White, A, 1989)
"Bacterial prostatitis is documented at a very low prevalence (7-13% of prostatitis overall considered) due to either reduced utilization of viral and bacteriological tests (Meares test, urethral swab, bacterial and viral PCR) or to the possibility that individual patients show a scarce expression of bacterial disease in biological fluids, because of intraglandular biofilm presence, with subsequent spreading of the sole plankton microrganisms."1.35[Chronic prostatitis and biofilm]. ( Bartoletti, R; Cai, T, 2009)
