Lomitas 400 mg Tablet

Lomitas 400 mg Tablet contains 400 mg of lomefloxacin in each tablet. It is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat certain bacterial infections, not viral illnesses like colds or flu. Lomitas 400 mg Tablet is prescribed only when a clinician decides that this specific antibiotic is appropriate for the infection being treated. The exact pack size sold here is a strip/box containing 10 tablets.

How it works: Lomefloxacin works by blocking bacterial enzymes that bacteria need to copy and repair their DNA. As a tablet, Lomitas 400 mg Tablet is swallowed and absorbed into the body so the medicine can reach the infection site through the bloodstream.

Lomitas 400 mg Tablet is a higher-strength tablet form of lomefloxacin, so it is meant for patients whose infection and medical history have been reviewed by a doctor. Because each tablet contains the full 400 mg dose, it may be chosen when a clinician wants once-daily treatment with this exact strength rather than a lower-dose option. Since there are no other strengths or forms of Lomitas listed here, this 400 mg tablet is the product’s standard presented dose form in our catalog.

• Bacterial urinary tract infections
• Complicated urinary infections
• Certain kidney or bladder infections
• Other doctor-diagnosed susceptible bacterial infections

• Swallow Lomitas 400 mg Tablet whole with a full glass of water.
• Take it exactly as prescribed, at the same time each day if your doctor has told you to take it once daily.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet unless your pharmacist or doctor specifically tells you to do so.
• Stay well hydrated while taking this tablet unless your doctor has given you fluid restrictions.
• Separate it from antacids, iron, zinc, calcium supplements, or sucralfate as directed, because they can reduce absorption.
• Finish the full prescribed course even if you start feeling better.

Each Lomitas 400 mg Tablet provides 400 mg of lomefloxacin per tablet. This strength is commonly used on a once-daily schedule, but the exact dosing interval and total duration depend on the infection, kidney function, and your doctor’s instructions; the maximum daily dose is the amount your prescriber orders, and you should not take extra tablets on your own. Because this is a prescription antibiotic, the doctor decides whether this 400 mg strength is the right choice for you.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
