Milk beverage and drug with the service can be formed on the surface layer in the drug film, the impact of drug absorption and efficacy. This is because the milk of inorganic metal ions with Norfloxacin (norfloxacin) and other quinolones and tetracyclines into complex, reducing antibacterial activity.Milk protein preparations with calcium to form clots, not only affects the absorption, but also add to the burden of gastrointestinal.
