Injectable ofloxacin antibiotic administered as a single 400 mg dose by injection

This code represents the administration of 400 mg of ofloxacin, an antibiotic medication. Ofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat various bacterial infections, including those affecting the urinary tract, respiratory system, skin, and soft tissues. This code specifically refers to the injectable form of the drug.

Use this code when documenting the parenteral administration of 400 mg of ofloxacin for the treatment of susceptible bacterial infections. Documentation should clearly indicate the drug name, dosage (400 mg), route of administration (injection), and the medical necessity for its use. This code is typically used in inpatient or outpatient settings where intravenous or intramuscular administration is required.

• Ensure the documentation specifies the exact dosage of 400 mg; if a different dosage is administered, a different code or unit calculation may be necessary.
• This code represents the drug itself, not the administration service; a separate CPT code for injection administration should be reported concurrently.
• Verify the payer's specific policies regarding the billing of HCPCS Level II drugs, as some may require NDC numbers or specific units.
