Acipro 500mg Tablet contain Ciprofloxacin 500mg

Ciprofloxacin targets a bacterial enzyme called DNA gyrase, which is essential for the replication, transcription, and repair of bacterial DNA

DNA gyrase helps unwind the bacterial DNA strands, allowing for essential processes. Ciprofloxacin interferes with this unwinding process

By inhibiting DNA gyrase, ciprofloxacin prevents the proper separation of DNA strands and the synthesis of new DNA. This blocks bacterial DNA replication

Ciprofloxacin induces breaks in the bacterial DNA strands, further disrupting the normal functioning of the DNA

The inhibition of DNA synthesis and the induction of DNA breaks lead to the death of the bacterial cell
