Explanation:
Iron is a mineral that the body needs for growth and development. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body, and myoglobin, a protein that provides oxygen to muscles. Your body also needs iron to make some hormones.
The amount of iron you need each day depends on your age, your sex, and whether you consume a mostly plant-based diet. Average daily recommended amounts are listed below in milligrams (mg). Vegetarians who do not eat meat, poultry, or seafood need almost twice as much iron as listed in the table because the body doesn’t absorb nonheme iron in plant foods as well as heme iron in animal foods.

The antibiotic used to fight the body's bacteria and classified as a quinolone is Floxin.
Explanation:
Floxin is the commercial name of Ofloxacin, a 2nd generation quinolone used in the treatment of infections by gram positive and gram negative germs. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit enzymes important for bacterial development, such as DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase IV.
Ofloxacin can be used for infections of the eyes, ears, skin and genitourinary system, including some sexually transmitted infections. Other 2nd generation quinolones are ciprofloxacin and norfloxacin.
Ofloxacin comes in tablets form, so it is only administered orally.
