Sulfociprofloxacin (sulfo-Cipro) appears as major metabolite of ciprofloxacin (Cipro) in faeces. The responsible enzymes are probably hepatic sulfotransferases (SULT) which act on the intermediate N4-hydroxyciprofloxacin, which itself is a probable biotransformation product of Cipro, catalyzed by a hepatic cytochrome P450 (reviewed by Bolledulla et al, 2014 and Sörgel, 1989; human sulfotransferases are reviewed in Gamage et al, 2006).
