*Hypersensitivity Reactions: Inform patients that delafloxacin can cause hypersensitivity reactions, even following a single dose, and to discontinue delafloxacin at the first sign of a skin rash, hives or other skin reactions, a rapid heartbeat, difficulty in swallowing or breathing, any swelling suggesting angioedema (for example, swelling of the lips, tongue, face, tightness of the throat, hoarseness), or other symptoms of an allergic reaction.
*Diarrhea: Diarrhea is a common problem caused by antibiotics which usually ends when the antibiotic is discontinued. Sometimes after starting treatment with antibiotics, patients can develop watery and bloody stools (with or without stomach cramps and fever) even as late as two or more months after having taken the last dose of the antibiotic. If this occurs, instruct patients to contact their physician as soon as possible.
*Antibacterial Resistance: Inform patients that antibacterial drugs including delafloxacin Tablets and Injection should only be used to treat bacterial infections. They do not treat viral infections (for example, the common cold). When delafloxacin Tablets and delafloxacin Injection are prescribed to treat a bacterial infection, patients should be told that although it is common to feel better early in the course of therapy, the medication should be taken exactly as directed. Skipping doses or not completing the full course of therapy may (1) decrease the effectiveness of the immediate treatment and (2) increase the likelihood that bacteria will develop resistance and will not be treatable by delafloxacin Tablets and delafloxacin Injection or other antibacterial drugs in the future.
''Administration with Food and Concomitant Medications''
*Inform patients that delafloxacin Tablets may be taken with or without food and without any dietary restrictions
*Inform patients that delafloxacin Tablets should be taken at least 2 hours before or 6 hours after antacids containing magnesium, or aluminum, with sucralfate, with metal cations such as iron, or with multivitamin preparations containing zinc or iron, or with didanosine buffered tablets for oral suspension or the pediatric powder for oral solution.
