Mechanism of action
Moxifloxacin is active against a wide range of Gram-positive, Gram-negative, aerobic, anaerobic and atypical microorganisms.
The bactericidal action of moxifloxacin results from inhibition of the topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV required for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and recombination.
