Abstract

Fluoroquinolones are a widely-prescribed, broad-spectrum class of antibiotics with several oral formulations notable for their high bioavailability. For certain infections, fluoroquinolones are the first line or only treatment choice. When administered orally, fluoroquinolones require proper administration to ensure adequate systemic absorption and, thereby, protect patients from treatment failure. Oral drug preparations that contain multivalent cations are well known to chelate with fluoroquinolones in the gastrointestinal tract; co-administration may lead to clinically significant decreases in oral fluoroquinolone bioavailability and an overall increase in fluoroquinolone-resistant bacteria. Based on a search and evaluation of the literature, this focused review describes oral fluoroquinolone-multivalent cation drug-drug interactions and their magnitude and offers several clinical management strategies for these potentially clinically significant interactions.
