Description

Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic. This high-purity active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is critical for ensuring the efficacy and safety of finished pharmaceutical formulations. It is primarily required by pharmaceutical manufacturers for the production of antibacterial medications targeting a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial infections.

Application

• Pharmaceutical API: Core ingredient in the manufacture of oral solid dosage forms (tablets, capsules) and sterile injectable solutions.
• Veterinary Medicine: Used in formulations for treating bacterial infections in livestock and companion animals.
• Ophthalmic Solutions: Key component in eye drop formulations for treating bacterial conjunctivitis and corneal ulcers.
• Research & Development: Serves as a reference standard and building block in pharmacological and microbiological research.
• Intermediate Synthesis: Used in the synthesis of more complex fluoroquinolone derivatives and prodrugs.
