Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Norfloxacin HCl is the salt form of Norfloxacin Free Base, a synthetic chemotherapeutic antibacterial agent occasionally used to treat common as well as complicated urinary tract infections. It is a first generation synthetic fluoroquinolone (quinolone) and is approved for the treatment of urinary tract infections, prostatitis, and sexually transmitted diseases, although it is no longer used for the latter due to bacterial resistance.
