Allthe agents were applied on the right flank organs twice per day, while the left were untreated. The results showed that 1% ofloxacin cream had no effecton the flank organs. The effect of 1% ofloxacin compound cream on the flank organs was equalto that of 0.3% spironolactone cream, this indicated that the ofloxacin in 1% of loxacin compound cream had no influence on the action of spironolactone.
