Special Population Medication
Precautions for children: The safety of this product in infants and adolescents under 18 years of age has not been determined. However, this product can cause joint lesions when used in several young animals. Therefore, it should not be used in children and adolescents under 18 years of age. Precautions for pregnancy and lactation: Animal experiments have not confirmed that quinolones are teratogenic, but studies on the use of drugs in pregnant women have not yet reached a clear conclusion. Since this drug can cause joint lesions in underage animals, it is contraindicated for pregnant women, and lactating women should suspend breastfeeding when using this product. Precautions for the elderly: Elderly patients often have impaired renal function, and since this product is partially excreted through the kidneys, it needs to be used in reduced doses.
Drug Interactions
Urine alkalinization doses can reduce the solubility of this product in urine, leading to crystalluria and nephrotoxicity. When quinolone antibiotics are used in combination with theophylline, competitive inhibition of the cytochrome P450 binding site may lead to a significant reduction in the liver elimination of theophylline, a prolonged blood elimination half-life (t1/2β), an increase in blood drug concentration, and the appearance of symptoms of theophylline poisoning, such as nausea, vomiting, tremor, restlessness, excitement, convulsions, palpitations, etc. Although this product has a small effect on the metabolism of theophylline, theophylline blood drug concentration should still be measured and the dose adjusted when used in combination. This product can increase the blood drug concentration of cyclosporine when used in combination with cyclosporine, and the blood concentration of cyclosporine must be monitored and the dose adjusted. Although this product has a small enhancement on the anticoagulant warfarin when used in combination, the patient's prothrombin time should also be closely monitored when used in combination.
