Abstract

A frequent bacterial skin infection in youngsters is impetigo. In contrast to other quinolones like levofloxacin, nadifloxacin, and ofloxacin, ozenoxacin exhibits lower minimum inhibitory concentrations and better antibacterial activity. Because of its limited systemic absorption and lack of known drug interactions, ozenoxacin is notable for not activating cytochrome P450 enzymes in vitro. Despite being a relatively new antibacterial agent, ozenoxacin has been used in clinical settings. To shed light on its efficacy in patients, a meta-analysis has not yet been completed. The purpose of this meta-analysis and systematic review is to assess the effectiveness of ozenoxacin in treating impetigo, specifically when applied as a 1% topical cream.
