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 of the cytochrome P450 binding site may lead to a significant reduction in the hepatic 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, agitation, 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 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
