์์ฉ ๊ธฐ์ : Enrofloxacin exerts its rapid bactericidal effect by targeting key bacterial enzymes involved in DNA replication and transcription: * Inhibits **DNA gyrase (Topoisomerase II)** โ prevents the negative supercoiling of bacterial DNA required for replication. * Inhibits **Topoisomerase IV** โ interferes with the separation of interlinked replicated DNA molecules. **Result**: Disruption of DNA synthesis โ double-strand DNA breaks โ rapid bacterial cell death within 20-30 minutes of exposure. > **Pharmacodynamic Pearl**: Enrofloxacin exhibits a significant **post-antibiotic effect (PAE)** for both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, meaning bacterial growth continues to be suppressed even after drug concentrations fall below the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC).

- Antacids / Dairy Products (Mg++, Al+++, Ca++) ยท Cations bind to enrofloxacin and prevent its absorption; separate doses by at least 2 hours.
- Other Antibiotics (aminoglycosides, 3rd-gen cephalosporins, extended-spectrum penicillins) ยท Synergism may occur, though unpredictable against some bacteria like Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
- Cyclosporine ยท May exacerbate nephrotoxicity and reduce the metabolism of systemic cyclosporine.
- Flunixin ยท Increases the AUC and elimination half-life of both enrofloxacin and flunixin in dogs.
- Glyburide ยท Severe hypoglycemia is possible.
- Iron, Zinc (oral) ยท Decreased enrofloxacin absorption; separate doses by at least 2 hours.
- Methotrexate ยท Increased methotrexate levels possible, resulting in toxicity.
- Nitrofurantoin ยท May antagonize the antimicrobial activity of fluoroquinolones; concomitant use is not recommended.
- Phenytoin ยท May alter phenytoin blood levels.
- Probenecid ยท Blocks tubular secretion of ciprofloxacin (active metabolite), increasing its blood level and half-life.
- Quinidine ยท Increased risk for cardiotoxicity.
- Sucralfate ยท May inhibit absorption of enrofloxacin; separate doses by at least 2 hours. ยท major

Acute overdoses in **dogs** typically result in gastrointestinal signs (anorexia, vomiting). Dogs receiving 10X the labeled dose for 14 days developed only vomiting and anorexia. However, extreme overdoses (25X the labeled rate for 11 days) resulted in death. In **cats**, overdoses can be severe and irreversible. Doses of 20 mg/kg or more can cause **retinopathy, blindness, and seizures**. Common signs of toxicity reported to poison control include vomiting, lethargy, seizures, anorexia, depression, and diarrhea in dogs; and seizures and recumbency in cats.
