Interaction Details
Lomefloxacin is classified as belonging to the following category: Organic Anion-Transporting Polypeptide Substrates (Oatp)
Puravive contains quercetin. The simultaneous use of quercetin and OATP substrates (the drug in question in this interaction is reported to be an OATP substrate) may theoretically enhance their effects and adverse effects. In vitro studies indicate that quercetin can inhibit the uptake of estrone-3-sulfate and pravastatin, which are transported by OATP 1B1. Clinical research in healthy males demonstrates that co-administration of quercetin and pravastatin increases the area under the curve (AUC) of pravastatin by 24%, prolongs its half-life by 14%, and reduces its apparent clearance by 18% (source: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22114872/). Overall, quercetin may increase the risk of side effects of drugs that are OATP substrates when taken together.
