Interaction

In concomitant use of norfloxacin and theophylline, plasma concentrations of theophylline should be monitored and the dose adjusted, since norfloxacin reduces the clearance of theophylline by 25%, and the development of related undesirable side effects may be observed. Reduces the effect of nitrofurans.

Norfloxacin may increase therapeutic effects of cyclosporine and warfarin; in some cases when using norfloxacin with cyclosporine an increase in serum creatinine concentration was observed; therefore, in these patients it is necessary to monitor this parameter.

The simultaneous use of norfloxacin and antacids containing aluminum or magnesium hydroxide, as well as agents containing iron, zinc, sucralfate, reduces absorption of norfloxacin (interval between their intake should be at least 2 hours).

The concomitant use with drugs that lower the seizure threshold may lead to epileptiform seizures.

Simultaneous use with glucocorticosteroids may contribute to an increased risk of tendinitis or tendon rupture. Norfloxacin may increase the therapeutic effect of hypoglycemic drugs (sulfonylurea derivatives). Concomitant use of norfloxacin with drugs that have the potential ability to lower blood pressure may cause a sharp decrease in blood pressure. Therefore, in such cases, as well as when concomitantly administered with barbiturates and other medicinal agents for general anesthesia heart rate, blood pressure and ECG parameters should be controlled.
