DRUG INTERACTIONS

Compounds containing di or trivalent cations such as Aluminum, Calcium, Magnesium, Iron or Zinc can decrease the absorption of Enrofloxacin. Thus, for example antacids containing cations (Mg2 +, Al3 +, Ca2 +) can bind Enrofloxacin and prevent its absorption.
Sucralfate can inhibit the absorption of Enrofloxacin. It is recommended to separate both dosages for at least two hours.
Enrofloxacin administered with Theophylline can increase your serum levels. In dogs, theophylline clearance was reduced by 43% when it was administered in conjunction with Enrofloxacin at a dose of 5 mg / Kg every 24 hours.
Concomitant administration with other drugs that have hepatic metabolism may affect the pharmacokinetics of one or both drugs.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
