Prulifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic with broad spectrum antibacterial activity against Escherichia, Proteus, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Haemophilus. Like other fluoroquinolones, prulifloxacin inhibits DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, preventing DNA synthesis, repair, and transcription. Clinically, prulifloxacin is used to treat infections of the respiratory system and urinary tract.
