Drug Interactions between enoxacin and Prepopik

Talk to your doctor before using citric acid together with enoxacin. Citric acid can change the acidity of your urine, which may cause enoxacin to crystallize and form stones. This may also occur if you are dehydrated, so you should drink plenty of fluids during treatment with enoxacin. Let your doctor know if you experience flank pain, painful urination, or blood in the urine. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Enoxacin and magnesium oxide should not be taken orally at the same time. Products that contain magnesium, aluminum, calcium, iron, and/or other minerals may interfere with the absorption of enoxacin into the bloodstream and reduce its effectiveness. If possible, it may be best to avoid taking magnesium oxide while you are being treated with enoxacin. Otherwise, enoxacin should be taken 2 to 4 hours before or 4 to 6 hours after a magnesium oxide dose, enoxacin should be taken at least 2 hours before and not less than 6 hours after Suprep Bowel Prep (magnesium/potassium/sodium sulfates), or enoxacin and magnesium oxide should be taken as directed by your healthcare provider. Talk to your healthcare provider if you are unsure whether your medications contain something that could potentially interact or if you have questions on how to take this or other medications you are prescribed. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

The laxative effect of sodium picosulfate may be decreased when used during or following treatment with enoxacin. Your doctor may prescribe a substitute for sodium picosulfate that is not affected by treatment with enoxacin. You should let your doctor know if you experience signs and symptoms of low magnesium or potassium blood level such as weakness, tiredness, drowsiness, dizziness, confusion, tingling, numbness, muscle pain, cramps, nausea, or vomiting. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
