    Film-coated tablets.
    Composition:

    One tablet contains:

    active substance: ciprofloxacin hydrochloride monohydrate (in terms of ciprofloxacin) 500 mg;

    Excipients: lactulose, povidone low molecular weight, croscarmellose sodium, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, corn starch;

    excipients of the shell: hypromellose, macrogol-4000, talc, titanium dioxide.

    Description:

    Tablets covered with a film coat of white or almost white color, capsular-shaped, biconvex. On a cross-section of white color.

    Pharmacotherapeutic group:Antimicrobial agent, fluoroquinolone.
    ATX: & nbsp

    J.01.M.A.02   Ciprofloxacin

    Pharmacodynamics:

    A broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent, a quinolone derivative, suppresses bacterial DNA gyrase (topoisomerases II and IV, responsible for the process of supercoiling the chromosomal DNA around the nuclear RNA, which is necessary for reading the genetic information), disrupts DNA synthesis, growth and division of bacteria; causes pronounced morphological changes (incl.cell wall and membranes) and rapid death of a bacterial cell.

    It acts bactericidal on gram-negative organisms during rest and division (because it affects not only the DNA-gyrase, but also causes lysis of the cell wall), gram-positive microorganisms - only during the fission period.

    Low toxicity for macroorganism cells is explained by the absence of DNA-gyrase in them. Against the background of taking ciprofloxacin, there is no parallel development of resistance to other antibiotics that do not belong to the group of DNA-gyrase inhibitors, which makes it highly effective against bacteria that are resistant, for example, to aminoglycosides, penicillins, cephalosporins, tetracyclines.

    Gram-negative aerobic bacteria are sensitive to ciprofloxacin: enterobacteria (Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Citrobacter spp., Klebsiella spp., Enterobacter spp., Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Serratia marcescens, Hafnia alvei, Edwardsiella tarda, Providencia spp. , Morganella morganii, Vibrio spp., Yersinia spp.), Other gram-negative bacteria (Haemophilus spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Moraxella catarrhalis, Aeromonas spp., Pasteurella multocida, Plesiomonas shigelloides, Campylobacter jejuni, Neisseria spp.); some intracellular pathogens: Legionella pneumophila, Brucella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Mycobacterium kansasii.

    Gram-positive aerobic bacteria are also sensitive to ciprofloxacin: Staphylococcus spp. (Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus hominis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus), Streptococcus spp. (Streptococcus pyogenes, Streptococcus agalactiae).

    It is active against Bacillus anthracis.

    The majority of staphylococci, resistant to methicillin, are resistant to ciprofloxacin.Sensitivity of Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis, Mycobacterium avium (located intracellularly) - moderate (high concentrations are required to repress).

    For drug resistant: Bacteroides fragilis, Pseudomonas cepacia, Pseudomonas maltophilia, Ureaplasma urealyticum, Clostridium difficile, Nocardia asteroides. Not effective against Treponema pallidum.

    Resistance develops very slowly, because on the one hand, after the action of ciprofloxacin are left with persistent microorganisms, and on the other - the bacterial cells do not have the enzymes that inactivate it.
    Pharmacokinetics:

    When taken orally, it is quickly and fairly fully absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (mainly in the 12-finger and jejunum). Eating slows down absorption, but does not change the maximum concentration (Cmax) and bioavailability. Bioavailability is 50-85%, the volume of distribution is 2-3.5 l / kg, the connection with plasma proteins is 20-40%. The time to reach the maximum concentration (TCmax) - 60-90 min, the maximum concentration linearly depends on the value of the accepted dose and is 1.2, 2.4, 4.3 and 5.4 μg / ml, respectively, at doses of 250, 500, 750 and 1000 mg. After 12 hours after ingestion of 250, 500 and 750 mg, the concentration of the drug in the plasma is reduced to 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 μg / ml, respectively.

    Well distributed in body tissues (excluding tissue, rich in fats, for example, nervous tissue). Concentration in tissues is 2-12 times higher than in plasma.Therapeutic concentrations are achieved in saliva, tonsils, liver, gall bladder, bile, intestine, abdominal and pelvic organs (endometrium, fallopian tubes and ovaries, uterus), seminal fluid, prostate tissue, kidney and urinary organs, lung tissue, bronchial secretion, bone tissue, muscles, synovial fluid and articular cartilage, peritoneal fluid, skin. The cerebrospinal fluid penetrates in a small amount, where its concentration in the absence of inflammation of the meninges is 6-10% of that in the serum, and when inflamed - 14-37%. Ciprofloxacin well penetrates also into the eye fluid, pleura, peritoneum, lymph, through the placenta. The concentration of ciprofloxacin in blood neutrophils is 2-7 times higher than in blood serum.

    Metabolised in the liver (15-30%) with the formation of low-activity metabolites (diethylciprofloxacin, sulfociprofloxacin, oxocycloploxacin, formyl ciprofloxacin).

    The half-life is about 4 hours, with chronic renal insufficiency up to 12 hours. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys through tubular filtration and tubular secretion in unchanged form (40-50%) and in the form of metabolites (15%), the rest - through the gastro- intestinal tract.A small amount is excreted in breast milk.

    Kidney clearance - 3-5 ml / min / kg; total clearance - 8-10 ml / min / kg.

    In chronic renal failure (creatinine clearance above 20 ml / min), the percentage of ciprofloxacin excreted through the kidneys decreases, but cumulation in the body does not occur due to a compensatory increase in the metabolism of ciprofloxacin excretion through the gastrointestinal tract.

    The dosage regimen in children with impaired liver and kidney function has not been studied. The duration of treatment depends on the severity of the disease, clinical and bacteriological control. It is important to continue treatment systematically, at least 3 days after the disappearance of fever or other clinical symptoms. Average duration of treatment: 1 day with acute uncomplicated gonorrhea and cystitis; up to 7 days with infections of the kidneys, urinary tract,intra-abdominal infections; the entire neutropenia period in immunocompromised patients; no more than 2 months with osteomyelitis; from 7 to 14 days with other infections.

    Other: violation of breathing (including bronchospasm), general weakness, increased photosensitivity, superinfections (candidiasis, pseudomembranous colitis), "tides" of blood to the face.

    Overdose:

    Symptoms: nausea, vomiting,

    dizziness, tremor, headache, confusion, fatigue, convulsive seizures, hallucinations, mental arousal, prolongation of the QTc interval, abnormalities of the gastrointestinal tract, impaired liver and kidney function, crystalluria, hematuria.

    The special antidote is unknown. It is necessary to carefully monitor the patient's condition, make gastric lavage, carry out usual emergency measures, ensure sufficient fluid intake.

    With the help of hemo- or peritoneal dialysis, only a small amount (less than 10%) of the drug can be excreted.

    In order to prevent the development of crystallaria, it is recommended to monitor renal function, including pH and acidity of urine.

    Interaction:

    Due to the decrease in the activity of microsomal oxidation in hepatocytes, it increases the concentration and prolongs the half-life of theophylline (and other xanthines, for example, caffeine), oral hypoglycemic drugs, indirect anticoagulants, and helps to reduce the prothrombin index.At simultaneous admission with theophylline it is recommended to conduct a constant control of the concentration of theophylline in the blood plasma and, if necessary, reduce the dose of theophylline.

    When combined with other antimicrobial drugs (beta-lactam antibiotics, aminoglycosides, clindamycin, metronidazole) synergy is usually observed; can be successfully used in combination with azlocillin and ceftazidime in infections caused by Pseudomonas spp .; with mezlocillin, azlocillin, etc. beta-lactam antibiotics - with streptococcal infections; with isoxazolylpenicillins and vancomycin - with staphylococcal infections; with metronidazole and clindamycin - with anaerobic infections.

    Increases the nephrotoxic effect of cyclosporine, there is an increase in serum creatinine, in such patients monitoring of this indicator is required 2 times a week.

    With simultaneous admission with indirect anticoagulants, it is often necessary to monitor the international normalized relationship, as well as within a short time after the completion of the combination therapy. Oral reception together with iron-containing drugs,sucralfate and antacid medicines containing magnesium, calcium and aluminum salts, leads to a decrease in absorption of ciprofloxacin, so it should be prescribed 1-2 hours before or 4 hours after the administration of the above medicines.

    The simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and dairy products or beverages enriched with minerals (eg milk, yogurt, calcium-fortified orange juice) should be avoided, since the absorption of ciprofloxacin may decrease. However, calcium, which is part of other foods, does not significantly affect the absorption of ciprofloxacin.

    Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (excluding acetylsalicylic acid) increase the risk of seizures. Fluoroquinolones form chelate compounds with magnesium and aluminum ions of the didanosine dosage form buffer system, which drastically reduces the absorption of antibiotics, therefore ciprofloxacin take 2 hours before taking didanosine or 2 hours after taking this medication.

    Metoclopramide accelerates absorption, which leads to a decrease in the time to reach its maximum concentration.

    Ciprofloxacin, due to a decrease in the activity of microsomal oxidation in hepatocytes, increases the plasma concentration and extends T1 / 2 glibenclamide, which can lead to hypoglycemia, in rare cases, severe. Simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin with glibenclamide can enhance the effect of the latter.

    With the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and phenytoin, there was a change (increase or decrease) in the content of phenytoin in the blood plasma. In order to avoid weakening of the anticonvulsant effect of phenytoin due to a decrease in its concentration, and also to prevent undesirable phenomena associated with a phenytoin overdose when ciprofloxacin is discontinued, it is recommended to monitor phenytoin therapy in patients taking both drugs. including the determination of the content of phenytoin in the blood plasma during the entire period of simultaneous application of both drugs and for a short time after the completion of the combination therapy. Caution should be exercised while using ciprofloxacin, as well as other fluoroquinolones, in patients receiving drugs that cause prolongation of the QT interval (for example, antiarrhythmic drugs of Class 1A or Class III.tricyclic antidepressants, macrolides, antipsychotics) (see section "Special instructions").

    The combined use of uricosuric drugs leads to slower elimination (50%) and increase plasma concentration of ciprofloxacin. Increases in the maximum concentration of 7 times (4 to 21 times) and the area under the curve "concentration-time" 10 times (from 6 to 24 times) tizanidine, which exceeds the risk of significant decrease in blood pressure and sleepiness.

    With simultaneous use with omeprazole, there may be a slight decrease in the maximum plasma concentration in the plasma and a decrease in AUC.

    Probenecid inhibits the excretion of ciprofloxacin by the kidneys, leading to an increase in the concentration of ciprofloxacin.

    In a study on healthy volunteers, it was found that the simultaneous use of drugs containing lidocaineAnd ciprofloxacin, a moderate inhibitor of isozyme CYP1A2 reduces the lidocaine clearance by 22% when administered intravenously. In spite of the good tolerability of lidocaine, simultaneous application with ciprofloxacin may increase the side affects due to the interaction.

    With the simultaneous use of clozapine and ciprofloxacin at a dose of 250 mg for 7 days, there was an increase in serum concentrations of clozapine and N-desmethylclozapine by 29% and 31%, respectively. It is necessary to monitor the patient's condition and, if necessary, adjust the dosage regimen of clozapine during its simultaneous use with ciprofloxacin and for a short time after the completion of the combination therapy.

    With the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and methotrexate, the renal tubular methotrexate transport slows, potentially leading to increased plasma concentrations of methotrexate, which may increase the risk of toxic reactions associated with methotrexate. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the condition of patients in the treatment of methotrexate and simultaneous administration of ciprofloxacin.

    Clinical studies have shown that the simultaneous use of duloxetine and potent inhibitors of the CYP1A2 isoenzyme (such as fluvoxamine) can lead to an increase in AUC and Cmax duloxetine. Despite the lack of clinical data on the possible interaction with ciprofloxacin,it is possible to predict the likelihood of such interaction with the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and duloxetine.

    With the simultaneous use of ropinirole with ciprofloxacin, there is a possibility of an increase in the concentration of ropinirole, which may be accompanied by an increased risk of unwanted reactions. In case of simultaneous application it is necessary to control the adverse effects of ropinirole during its simultaneous application with ciprofloxacin and for a short time after completion of the combination therapy.

    With the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin in a dose of 500 mg and sildenafil at a dose of 50 mg, there was an increase in Cmax and AUC sildenafil in 2 times. The use of this combination is only possible after an evaluation of the benefit / risk ratio.

    Special instructions:

    Ciprofloxacin is not a drug of choice in suspected or established pneumonia caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae.

    To avoid the development of crystalluria, exceeding the recommended daily dose is inadmissible, adequate fluid intake and maintenance of acid urine reaction are also necessary. Patients with epilepsy, seizures in the anamnesis,cardiovascular diseases and organic lesions of the brain in connection with the threat of development of adverse reactions from the central nervous system ciprofloxacin should be prescribed only for "vital" indications.

    If a severe and prolonged diarrhea occurs during or after treatment with ciprofloxacin, the diagnosis of pseudomembranous colitis should be excluded, which requires immediate discontinuation of the drug and the appointment of appropriate treatment. Contraindicated in the use of drugs that suppress the intestinal peristalsis.

    If pain occurs in tendons or when the first signs of tendovaginitis appear, treatment should be discontinued due to the fact that individual cases of inflammation and even rupture of tendons during treatment with fluoroquinolones are described.

    During treatment with ciprofloxacin, UV irradiation should be avoided (including contact with direct sunlight).

    Given that women have a larger average duration of the QT interval than men, they are more sensitive to drugs that cause prolongation of the QT interval. Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in combination with drugs,(eg, antiarrhythmic drugs of classes IA and III, tricyclic antidepressants, macrolides, antipsychotics), in patients with an increased risk of prolonging the QT interval or developing pirouette-type arrhythmias (eg, QT syndrome, heart disease (heart failure) , myocardial infarction, bradycardia), electrolyte imbalance (eg, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia)).

    When ciprofloxacin was used, cases of liver necrosis and life-threatening liver failure were noted. In the presence of symptoms of liver disease, such as anorexia, jaundice, darkening of the urine, itching, abdominal tenderness, the use of ciprofloxacin should be discontinued. Patients with severe myasthenia gravis ciprofloxacin should be used with caution, as possible exacerbation of symptoms.

    With the use of ciprofloxacin, tendonitis and tendon rupture (predominantly Achilles tendon) can occur, sometimes bilateral, within the first 48 hours after the initiation of therapy, inflammation and rupture of the tendon may occur even several months after discontinuation of ciprofloxacin treatment.In elderly patients and patients with diseases of the tendons, simultaneously receiving treatment with glucocorticosteroids, there is an increased risk of tendonopathy.

    When ciprofloxacin was used, cases of epileptic status were reported, ciprofloxacin, like other fluoroquinolones, can provoke cramps and reduce the threshold of convulsive readiness. If seizures occur, the drug should be discontinued, mental reactions may occur even after the first use of fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin.

    In patients who use fluoroquinolones, including ciprofloxacin, cases of sensory and sensorimotor axonal polyneuropathy affecting small and (or) large axons are recorded, leading to paresthesia, hyposthenia, dysesthesia and weakness. Symptoms may appear soon after the onset of use and be irreversible.
