Rofecoxib: (Moderate) Use quinolones and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) concomitantly with caution due to potential increased risk of CNS stimulation and convulsive seizures. It was previously thought that antibiotics may decrease the effectiveness of OCs containing estrogens due to stimulation of metabolism or a reduction in enterohepatic circulation via changes in GI flora. These reactions can occur within hours to weeks after starting these agents in patients of any age, with or without pre-existing risk factors. Levofloxacin absorption may be reduced as quinolone antibiotics can chelate with divalent or trivalent cations. Although extremely rare, TdP has been reported during postmarketing surveillance of levofloxacin. Disturbances of blood glucose, including hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia, have been reported in patients treated concomitantly with quinolones and an antidiabetic agent. The diluted solution may be stored for up to 72 hours when kept at or below 25 degrees C (77 degrees F) or for 14 days when stored under refrigeration at 5 degrees C (41 degrees F) in plastic containers.

Levofloxacin has been associated with prolongation of the QT interval and infrequent cases of arrhythmia. Norethindrone: (Moderate) It would be prudent to recommend alternative or additional contraception when oral contraceptives (OCs) are used in conjunction with antibiotics. Chelation of divalent cations with levofloxacin is less than with other quinolones. Additionally, rare cases of TdP have been spontaneously reported during postmarketing surveillance in patients receiving levofloxacin.

During long-term antibiotic administration, the risk for drug interaction with OCs is less clear, but alternative or additional contraception may be advisable in selected circumstances. These authors concluded that because females most at risk for OC failure or noncompliance may not be easily identified and the true incidence of such events may be under-reported, and given the serious consequence of unwanted pregnancy, that recommending an additional method of contraception during short-term antibiotic use may be justified. During long-term antibiotic administration, the risk for drug interaction with OCs is less clear, but alternative or additional contraception may be advisable in selected circumstances. During long-term antibiotic administration, the risk for drug interaction with OCs is less clear, but alternative or additional contraception may be advisable in selected circumstances. Levofloxacin absorption may be reduced as quinolone antibiotics can chelate with divalent or trivalent cations.

Dose-related QTc prolongation is associated with therapeutic apomorphine exposure. (Moderate) Monitor blood glucose carefully when systemic quinolones and antidiabetic agents, including SGLT2 inhibitors, are coadministered. Androgen deprivation therapy (i.e., triptorelin) may prolong the QT/QTc interval. If use together is necessary, obtain a baseline ECG to assess initial QT interval and determine frequency of subsequent ECG monitoring, avoid any non-essential QT prolonging drugs, and correct electrolyte imbalances. In addition, there are post-marketing reports of torsade de pointes (TdP). NSAIDs in combination with very high doses of quinolones have been shown to provoke convulsions in preclinical studies and postmarketing. Discontinue the quinolone if a hypoglycemic reaction occurs and initiate appropriate therapy immediately. Siponimod: (Major) In general, do not initiate treatment with siponimod in patients receiving levofloxacin due to the potential for QT prolongation.

Insulin Glargine; Lixisenatide: (Moderate) Monitor blood glucose carefully when systemic quinolones and antidiabetic agents, including incretin mimetics, are coadministered. Due to the risk for serious and potentially permanent adverse reactions associated with quinolone antibiotics, levofloxacin should only be used in cases where alternative treatment options cannot be used. Additionally, rare cases of TdP have been spontaneously reported during postmarketing surveillance in patients receiving levofloxacin.

It was previously thought that antibiotics may decrease the effectiveness of OCs containing estrogens due to stimulation of metabolism or a reduction in enterohepatic circulation via changes in GI flora. Levofloxacin has been associated with a risk of QT prolongation and TdP. [33141] However, avoid the unmonitored use of quinolones in patients with known QT prolongation, patients with ongoing proarrhythmic conditions that may increase the risk of developing TdP (e.g., uncorrected hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia, significant bradycardia, congestive heart failure, acute myocardial ischemia, and atrial fibrillation), or patients receiving medications known to prolong the QT interval. Data regarding progestin-only contraceptives or for newer combined contraceptive deliveries (e.g., patches, rings) are not available. For systemic infection in which meningitis cannot be excluded, continue treatment for at least 2 to 3 weeks or until clinical criteria for improvement are met.

Levofloxacin has been associated with a risk of QT prolongation and TdP. These authors concluded that because females most at risk for OC failure or noncompliance may not be easily identified and the true incidence of such events may be under-reported, and given the serious consequence of unwanted pregnancy, that recommending an additional method of contraception during short-term antibiotic use may be justified. Halobetasol; Tazarotene: (Moderate) Use tazarotene with caution in patients who are also taking drugs known to be photosensitizers, such as levofloxacin, due to the increased possibility of augmented phototoxicity. In a study of 15 healthy adults, the mean maximum plasma concentrations ranged from 0.94 ng/mL on day 1 to 2.15 ng/mL on day 15. Levofloxacin absorption may be reduced as quinolone antibiotics can chelate with divalent or trivalent cations. It was previously thought that antibiotics may decrease the effectiveness of OCs containing estrogens due to stimulation of metabolism or a reduction in enterohepatic circulation via changes in GI flora.
