Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride
The hydrochloride salt is the most widely used formulation of ciprofloxacin, available in oral tablets, suspension, intravenous solution, and ophthalmic preparations. It provides the same broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibacterial coverage as the parent compound. Concomitant antacids and divalent cation supplements should be avoided as they reduce oral bioavailability through chelation.
