General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Ofloxacin comes as a tablet to take by mouth. It is usually taken twice a day for 3 days to 6 weeks. The length of treatment depends on the type of infection being treated. If the infection is not completely cured, I suggest to continue the antibiotic for other three days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,

Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi
