-
Aneurysm of the aorta and dissection
- Fluoroquinolones have been linked to ruptures of aortic aneurysms in elderly patients.
- Fluoroquinolones should be avoided in patients who have a history of aneurysm, or are at higher risk, such as patients with hypertension, peripheral atherosclerotic diseases, hypertension, and patients with genetic disorders involving blood vessels (eg, Marfan, Ehlers Danlos syndrome) unless there is no alternative treatment.
- Extended treatment (eg, >14 Days) can increase the risk (Lee 2018,
-
CNS effects
- Fluoroquinolones have been linked to an increased risk for CNS effects such as seizures, elevated intracranial pressure (including pseudotumor Cerebri), dizziness and lightheadedness, and tremors.
- Patients with CNS disorders, such as epilepsy, severe cerebral arteriosclerosis or epilepsy, or any other risk factors, should be cautious.
-
Regulation of Glucose
- Fluoroquinolones have been linked to disturbances in glucose regulation including hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.
- Patients who are also taking insulin or oral hypoglycemic drugs have been most affected by these events.
- There have been several cases of severe hypoglycemia including death and coma.
- Diabetic patients should be closely examined for signs and symptoms of impaired glucose regulation.
- Stop taking the medication if you experience hypoglycemia.
-
Hypersensitivity reactions
- Anaphylaxis and severe hypersensitivity reactions can occur with quinolone therapy.
- These reactions may have a wide spectrum.
- Itching, urticaria and rash may be the most common reactions after one dose. However, severe idiosyncratic dermatologic symptoms may also occur after multiple doses.
- You should immediately stop taking any drugs if you experience a skin rash, or other symptoms.
-
Peripheral neuropathy:
- Rarely, peripheral neuropathy has been reported.
- The effects of therapy can be immediate and irreversible.
- Stop taking medication if you experience symptoms of sensorimotor or sensory neuropathy.

- Phototoxicity reactions may range from mild to severe.
- If you experience photosensitivity, stop using the product.
-
Psychiatric reactions
- Fluoroquinolones are associated with an increased risk for psychiatric reactions. This includes toxic psychosis and hallucinations.
- It can also cause anxiety, agitation and confusion, disorientation, delirium, attention disorders & memory impairment.
- Patients with depression history or other risk factors should be cautious.
- Stop using the medication if you experience a reaction.
-
Superinfection
- Use of the product for prolonged periods can lead to fungal and bacterial superinfections, such as C. difficile-associated diarrhea(CDAD), pseudomembranous collitis.
- CDAD was observed for >2 months after antibiotic treatment.
-
Tendon rupture/ inflammation: [US Boxed Warn]
- Reports of tendon inflammation and rupture have been reported after using quinolone antibiotics.
- Concurrent corticosteroids may increase the risk for organ transplant recipients and patients over 60 years old.
- Most often, Achilles tendon ruptures require surgical repair. However, other tendon sites such as rotator cuff and biceps have been reported.
- Tendonitis can be caused by strenuous exercise.
- Stop using the medication immediately if there is any tendon inflammation.
- This may occur even after therapy is stopped.
-
Hepatic impairment
- Patients with hepatic impairment should be cautious.
-
Myasthenia gravis: [US Boxed Warning]:
- Might exacerbate muscle weakness due to myasthenia Gravis.
- There have been cases of death and severe exacerbations.

|
QT-prolonging Agents (Highest Risk) |
QT-prolonging Agents (Indeterminate Risk - Avoid) may enhance the QTc-prolonging effect of QT-prolonging Agents (Highest Risk). Management: Monitor for QTc interval prolongation and ventricular arrhythmias when these agents are combined. Patients with additional risk factors for QTc prolongation may be at even higher risk. |
|
Varenicline |
Quinolones may increase the serum concentration of Varenicline. Management: Monitor for increased varenicline adverse effects with concurrent use of levofloxacin or other quinolone antibiotics, particularly in patients with severe renal impairment. International product labeling recommendations vary. Consult appropriate labeling. |
|
Verteporfin |

|
Vitamin K Antagonists (eg, warfarin) |
Quinolones may enhance the anticoagulant effect of Vitamin K Antagonists. |
|
Risk Factor D (Consider therapy modification) |
|
|
Antacids |
May decrease the absorption of Quinolones. Of concern only with oral administration of quinolones. Management: Avoid concurrent administration of quinolones and antacids to minimize the impact of this interaction. Recommendations for optimal dose separation vary by specific quinolone. Exceptions: Sodium Bicarbonate. |
|
Calcium Salts |
May decrease the absorption of Quinolones. Of concern only with oral administration of both agents. Exceptions: Calcium Chloride. |
|
Delamanid |
Quinolones may enhance the QTc-prolonging effect of Delamanid. Management: Avoid concomitant use if possible. If coadministration is unavoidable, frequent monitoring of electrocardiograms (ECGs) throughout the full delamanid treatment period should occur. Exceptions are discussed in separate monographs. |
|
Didanosine |
Quinolones may decrease the serum concentration of Didanosine. Didanosine may decrease the serum concentration of Quinolones. Management: Administer oral quinolones at least 2 hours before or 6 hours after didanosine. Monitor for decreased therapeutic effects of quinolones, particularly if doses cannot be separated as recommended. This does not apply to unbuffered enteric coated didanosine. |
|
Iron Salts |
May decrease the serum concentration of Quinolones. Management: Give oral quinolones at least several hours before (4 h for moxi- and sparfloxacin, 2 h for others) or after (8 h for moxi-, 6 h for cipro/dela-, 4 h for lome-, 3 h for gemi-, and 2 h for levo-, nor-, oflox-, pefloxacin, or nalidixic acid) oral iron salts Exceptions: Ferric Carboxymaltose; Ferric Gluconate; Ferric Hydroxide Polymaltose Complex; Ferric Pyrophosphate Citrate; Ferumoxytol; Iron Dextran Complex; Iron Isomaltoside; Iron Sucrose. |

|
Multivitamins/Minerals (with ADEK, Folate, Iron) |
May decrease the serum concentration of Quinolones. Specifically, polyvalent cations in multivitamin products may decrease the absorption of orally administered quinolone antibiotics. Management: Interactions can be minimized by administering the oral quinolone at least 2 hours before, or 6 hours after, the dose of a multivitamin that contains polyvalent cations (i.e., calcium, iron, magnesium, selenium, zinc). |
|
Multivitamins/Minerals (with AE, No Iron) |
May decrease the serum concentration of Quinolones. Specifically, minerals in the multivitamin/mineral product may impair absorption of quinolone antibiotics. Management: Interactions can be minimized by administering the oral quinolone at least 2 hours before, or 6 hours after, the dose of a multivitamin that contains polyvalent cations (i.e., calcium, iron, magnesium, selenium, zinc). |
|
Quinapril |
May decrease the serum concentration of Quinolones. Management: Separate doses of quinapril and oral quinolones by at least 2 hours in order to reduce the risk of interaction. Monitor for reduced efficacy of the quinolone if these products are used concomitantly. |
|
Sevelamer |
May decrease the absorption of Quinolones. Management: Administer oral quinolones at least 2 hours before or 6 hours after sevelamer. |
|

|
Typhoid Vaccine |
Antibiotics may diminish the therapeutic effect of Typhoid Vaccine. Only the live attenuated Ty21a strain is affected. Management: Vaccination with live attenuated typhoid vaccine (Ty21a) should be avoided in patients being treated with systemic antibacterial agents. Use of this vaccine should be postponed until at least 3 days after cessation of antibacterial agents. |
|
Zinc Salts |
May decrease the serum concentration of Quinolones. Management: Give oral quinolones at least several hours before (4 h for moxi- and sparfloxacin, 2 h for others) or after (8 h for moxi-, 6 h for cipro/dela-, 4 h for lome-, 3 h for gemi-, and 2 h for levo-, nor-, pe- or ofloxacin or nalidixic acid) oral zinc salts. Exceptions: Zinc Chloride. |
|
Risk Factor X (Avoid combination) |
|
|
Aminolevulinic Acid (Systemic) |
Photosensitizing Agents may enhance the photosensitizing effect of Aminolevulinic Acid (Systemic). |
