Pharmacology
Moxifloxacin belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of antibacterial drugs, and it is a 4th generation synthetic broad range antibacterial medication. It works against a wide spectrum of bacteria, including Mycoplasma pneumoniae, that are gram-positive, gram-negative, anaerobic, and atypical. Topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV, which are required for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, and repair, are inhibited.

Interaction of Iventi
When antacids, sucralfate, multivitamins, and multivalent cations are used together, moxifloxacin absorption is reduced (e.g. iron or zinc). With NSAIDs and warfarin, moxifloxacin may increase the risk of convulsions and bleeding. As a result, using Moxifloxacin with them at the same time should be avoided.
Contraindications
Patients having a history of hypersensitivity to Moxifloxacin or other quinolones should avoid it.
Side Effects of Iventi
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, and dizziness are all common Moxifloxacin side effects.
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy category C according to the US Food and Drug Administration. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, moxifloxacin is not advised.
