How To Use Maxaquin
MAXAQUIN: Take each dose with a full glass of water. MAXAQUIN may be taken with or without food. Drink plenty of fluids while taking MAXAQUIN. Antibiotics work best when the amount of medicine in your body is kept at a constant level. Do this by taking the medication at evenly spaced intervals throughout the day and night. Continue to take MAXAQUIN until the full prescribed amount is finished even if symptoms disappear after a few days. Stopping the medication too early may allow bacteria to continue to grow resulting in a relapse of the infection. If you take any of the following items, take them 4 hours before or 2 hours after taking MAXAQUIN: zinc, iron, sucralfate, didanosine, dairy products or antacids that contain magnesium, calcium or aluminum.

Use caution driving or performing tasks requiring alertness if MAXAQUIN makes you dizzy or lightheaded. Limit alcohol intake. Because MAXAQUIN may make you more sensitive to the sun, avoid prolonged sun exposure. Wear protective clothing and use a sunscreen when outdoors. Taking your dose of medication in the evening instead of morning may help to reduce this sensitivity reaction.
