MONITOR: Beta-2 adrenergic agonists can cause dose-related prolongation of the QT interval and potassium loss. Theoretically, coadministration with other agents that can prolong the QT interval may result in additive effects and increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias including torsade de pointes and sudden death. In general, the risk of an individual agent or a combination of agents causing ventricular arrhythmia in association with QT prolongation is largely unpredictable but may be increased by certain underlying risk factors such as congenital long QT syndrome, cardiac disease, and electrolyte disturbances (e.g., hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia). In addition, the extent of drug-induced QT prolongation is dependent on the particular drug(s) involved and dosage(s) of the drug(s). Clinically significant prolongation of QT interval and hypokalemia occur infrequently when beta-2 agonists are inhaled at normally recommended dosages. However, these effects may be more common when the drugs are administered systemically or when recommended dosages are exceeded.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if beta-2 agonists are used in combination with other drugs that can prolong the QT interval. Patients should be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, palpitation, irregular heart rhythm, shortness of breath, or syncope.

Applies to: Cipro I.V. (ciprofloxacin)

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Concurrent ingestion of dairy products (milk, yogurt) or calcium-fortified foods (i.e., cereal, orange juice) may decrease the activity of certain oral fluoroquinolone antibiotics. The mechanism is chelation of calcium and the quinolone, resulting in decreased bioavailability. In the case of orange juice, inhibition of intestinal transport mechanisms (P-glycoprotein or organic anion-transporting polypeptides) by flavones may also be involved. One study reported an average 41% decrease in maximum plasma concentrations and a 38% decrease in AUC when ciprofloxacin was given with calcium-fortified orange juice instead of water. Administration of ciprofloxacin tablets with enteral nutrition may reduce its bioavailability and maximum serum concentrations. Data have been conflicting and variable by the type of enteral nutrition product, location of the feeding tube, and patient characteristics. Decreased absorption is expected if ciprofloxacin is given by jejunostomy tube.

MANAGEMENT: Oral ciprofloxacin should not be taken with dairy products or calcium-fortified foods alone, but may be taken with meals that contain these products. When taken alone, dairy products or calcium-fortified foods should be ingested at least 2 hours before or after ciprofloxacin administration. When ciprofloxacin tablets are administered to patients receiving continuous enteral nutrition, some experts recommend that the tube feeding should be interrupted for at least 1 hour before and 2 hours after the dose of ciprofloxacin is given. Patients should be monitored for altered antimicrobial efficacy and switched to intravenous ciprofloxacin if necessary. If no enteral route besides a jejunostomy tube is available, it is also recommended to switch to intravenous ciprofloxacin. According to the manufacturer, ciprofloxacin oral suspension should not be administered via nasogastric or feeding tubes due to its physical characteristics.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Oral preparations that contain magnesium, aluminum, or calcium may significantly decrease the gastrointestinal absorption of quinolone antibiotics. Absorption may also be reduced by sucralfate, which contains aluminum, as well as other polyvalent cations such as iron and zinc. The mechanism is chelation of quinolones by polyvalent cations, forming a complex that is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The bioavailability of ciprofloxacin has been reported to decrease by as much as 90% when administered with antacids containing aluminum or magnesium hydroxide.

MANAGEMENT: When coadministration cannot be avoided, quinolone antibiotics should be dosed either 2 to 4 hours before or 4 to 6 hours after polyvalent cation-containing products to minimize the potential for interaction. When coadministered with Suprep Bowel Prep (magnesium/potassium/sodium sulfates), the manufacturer recommends administering fluoroquinolone antibiotics at least 2 hours before and not less than 6 hours after Suprep Bowel Prep to avoid chelation with magnesium. Please consult individual product labeling for specific recommendations.

MONITOR: Coadministration with certain quinolones may increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of caffeine due to inhibition of the CYP450 1A2 metabolism of caffeine. Quinolones that may inhibit CYP450 1A2 include ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, grepafloxacin, nalidixic acid, norfloxacin, pipemidic acid, and pefloxacin (not all commercially available). In healthy volunteers, enoxacin (100 to 400 mg twice daily) increased systemic exposure (AUC) of caffeine by 2- to 5-fold and reduced its clearance by approximately 80%. Pipemidic acid (400 to 800 mg twice daily) increased AUC of caffeine by 2- to 3-fold and reduced its clearance by approximately 60%. Ciprofloxacin (250 to 750 mg twice daily) increased AUC and elimination half-life of caffeine by 50% to over 100%, and reduced its clearance by 30% to 50%. Norfloxacin 400 mg twice daily increased caffeine AUC by 16%, while 800 mg twice daily increased caffeine AUC by 52% and reduced its clearance by 35%. Pefloxacin (400 mg twice daily) has been shown to reduce caffeine clearance by 47%.

MANAGEMENT: Patients using caffeine-containing products should be advised that increased adverse effects such as headache, tremor, restlessness, nervousness, insomnia, tachycardia, and blood pressure increases may occur during coadministration with quinolones that inhibit CYP450 1A2. Caffeine intake should be limited when taking high dosages of these quinolones. If an interaction is suspected, other quinolones such as gatifloxacin, gemifloxacin, levofloxacin, lomefloxacin, moxifloxacin, and ofloxacin may be considered, since they are generally believed to have little or no effect on CYP450 1A2 or have been shown not to interact with caffeine.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
