Avelox Side Effects
Nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, mild dizziness or headache may occur. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly. Tell your doctor immediately if you have any of these very unlikely but serious side effects: unusual vaginal itching or discharge, unusually fast/slow/irregular pulse, yellowing eyes or skin, dark urine, white patches in the mouth, chest pain, seizure, mental/mood changes, muscle/tendon pain or swelling, fainting. Allergic reactions to AVELOX are unlikely, but seek immediate medical attention if it occurs. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include: rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, trouble breathing. If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
How To Use Avelox
AVELOX: Take AVELOX by mouth, generally once daily, as directed by your doctor. Drink plenty of fluids while using AVELOX, unless instructed otherwise. The length of treatment depends on your condition and response to therapy. Take AVELOX exactly as prescribed. Do not exceed the recommended dose of AVELOX. Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level. This is done by taking the medication at evenly spaced intervals (e.g., every 24 hours). Continue to take AVELOX until the full-prescribed amount is finished, even if symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the medicine too early may allow bacteria to continue to grow, resulting in a relapse of the infection. Take AVELOX either 4 hours before or 8 hours after taking didanosine, sucralfate, aluminum, magnesium or calcium- containing antacids, iron or zinc preparations or vitamin/mineral products. These products may bind with this medicine and interfere with its absorption. Consult your pharmacist for more information.
Avelox Uses
AVELOX is a quinolone antibiotic used to treat certain types of infections (e.g., respiratory tract infections, sinus infections).
Avelox Precautions
Tell your doctor your medical history, including: allergies (especially to quinolone antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin), liver disease, seizures, tendon problems (e.g., tendonitis, bursitis), heart problems (e.g., QTc interval prolongation, bradycardia, arrhythmia, myocardial infarction), brain disorders (e.g., cerebral atherosclerosis, tumors or increased intracranial pressure), low blood potassium levels. AVELOX may make you dizzy. Use caution engaging in activities requiring alertness such as driving or using machinery. Limit alcohol intake because it can intensify the dizziness effect of AVELOX. Use of AVELOX for prolonged or repeated periods may result in a secondary infection (e.g., oral, bladder or vaginal yeast infection). AVELOX should be used with caution in children less than 18 years of age. AVELOX may cause joint or bone problems in young children. AVELOX should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is not known whether AVELOX passes into breast milk. Because of the potential risk to the infant, breast-feeding while using this product is not recommended. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
