Atherosclerosis : Atherosclerosis is a specific form of arteriosclerosis in which an artery wall thickens as a result of the accumulation of calcium and fatty materials such as cholesterol and triglyceride. It reduces the elasticity of the artery walls and therefore allows less blood around the body, posing serious cardiovascular complications. Atherosclerosis is the usual cause of heart attacks, strokes, and peripheral vascular disease -- what together are called "cardiovascular disease." A range of medications which can be used to treat Atherosclerosis are Anticoagulants, Aspirin,Atenolol, celiprolol, nadolol, Oxprenolol, pindolol, acebutolol , sotalol, calcium channel blockers, Ezetimibe, Fibrates, Glycoprotein IIb/IIIa Receptor Inhibitors, Niacin (Nicotinic Acid), Nitrates, Platelet Inhibitors, Statins
Antacids, ferrous salts, bismuth subsalicylate, sucralfate and zinc salts reduce bioavailability of gatifloxacin. May increase digoxin plasma levels. Probenecid, cimetidine and loop diuretics increase gatifloxacin levels. NSAIDs may increase the risk of CNS stimulation and convulsions. Concurrent use of bepridil, cisapride, erythromycin, pentamidine, phenothiazines, or TCAs may prolong QT interval. Concurrent corticosteroid therapy may increase the risk of tendon rupture. Increased risk of hypoglycaemia when used with oral antidiabetic agents. May enhance hypoprothrombinaemic effects of oral anticoagulants.
