Grepafloxacin nasal was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 1999.
| Take all of the grepafloxacin that has been prescribed for you even if you begin to feel better. Your symptoms may start to improve before the infection is completely treated. |
| Drink plenty of extra fluids every day while taking grepafloxacin. |
| Do not take antacids that contain magnesium or aluminum (e.g., Tums or Rolaids), the ulcer medicine sucralfate (Carafate), or vitamin or mineral supplements that contain iron or zinc for a minimum of 4 hours before or 4 hours after a dose of grepafloxacin. Taking antacids, sucralfate, or vitamin or mineral supplements too close to a dose of grepafloxacin can greatly decrease the effects of the antibiotic. |
