Pharmacokinetic interaction of theophylline with pefloxacin following i.v. administrations was investigated in rabbits. Pefloxacin was coadministrated at doses of 10 and 20 mg/kg or previously administered for 6 days 10 and 20 mg/kg. Plasma concentration and AUC of theophylline were increased significantly (p<0.05) and the renal clearance $(CL_r)$, total body clearance $(CL_r)$ and the volume of distribution $(Vd_{ss})$ were decreased significantly (p<0.005) by the pretreatment. It demonstrates that adjustment of dosage regimen of theophylline should be considered when concomitant administration of pefloxacin is prescribed.

The present study was performed to evaluate whether the application of Fenbufen is reasonable for predicting the convulsive liability of the quinolone derivatives and to examine whether pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) can be used as a screening tool for their Central Nervous System (CNS) toxic pontential. The convulsive activity of the quinolones was markedly potentiated by the pretreatment of Fenbufen. In combination with Fenbufen, enoxacin (ENX), norfloxacin (XFLX), and ciprofloxacin (CPFX) provoked convlusions and subsequent death at the intravenous doses of 0.5mg/kg, 10mg/kg, and 40mg/kg, respectively, whereas ofloxacin (OFLX) and pefloxacin (PFLX) did not induce convulsions and death even at a relatively high dose of 100mg/kg iv.
