Avelox Intake Guidelines
You should accompany each and every dose of Avelox that you take with a glass of water. You may take this drug either on a full or on an empty stomach. Drink plenty of water during your treatment with Avelox (Moxifloxacin). Do not stop your treatment with Avelox without your doctor’s consent.
Avelox Dosage
Ask your doctor to calculate the dose of Avelox that suits you best. The correct dosage varies from one person to another, as it depends on a couple of factors. This drug is usually taken only once a day.
Avelox Missed Dose
Avelox (Moxifloxacin) should be taken in or on a regular basis. If you are following a treatment with Avelox, try not to miss any of your doses. If you happen to miss one take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. You should not take in a double dose of this drug unless you are instructed by your physician to do so.
Before taking Avelox, tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver disease, myasthenia gravis, joint problems, diabetes, a history of seizures, low levels of potassium in your blood (hypokalemia), or a personal or family history of "Long QT syndrome."
Avoid taking antacids, vitamin or mineral supplements, sucralfate (Carafate), or didanosine (Videx) powder or chewable tablets within 8 hours before or 4 hours after you take Avelox. These other medicines can make Avelox much less effective when taken at the same time.
Taking Avelox can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Avoid exposure to sunlight, sun lamps, or tanning beds.
