Drug Interactions
1. Urine alkalinizing agents can reduce the solubility of this product in urine, leading to crystalluria and nephrotoxicity. 2. When quinolone antibiotics are used in combination with theophylline, competitive inhibition with the cytochrome P450 binding site may lead to a significant reduction in the hepatic elimination of theophylline, prolonged blood elimination half-life (t1/2β), increased blood drug concentration, and symptoms of theophylline poisoning, such as nausea, vomiting, tremor, restlessness, agitation, convulsions, palpitations, etc. Although this product has little effect on the metabolism of theophylline, theophylline blood concentration should still be measured and the dosage adjusted when used in combination. 3. When this product is used in combination with cyclosporine, the blood concentration of cyclosporine can be increased. The blood concentration of cyclosporine must be monitored and the dosage adjusted. 4. When this product is used in combination with the anticoagulant warfarin, the anticoagulant effect of the latter is slightly enhanced, but the patient should also be closely monitored when used in combination.
