Possible Interaction: Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid and Norfloxacin

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The contractile effect of exogenously applied GABA was concentration-dependent with EC(50)= 9.8 x 10(-6) M. This contractile effect was not … inhibited, dose-dependently, by either norfloxacin or enoxacin, but only at concentrations higher than 10(-5) M. The response of the ileum to GABA (… norfloxacin ….

GABA (10 microM)-induced current was inhibited by norfloxacin (NFLX), ciprofloxacin, ENX, and ofloxacin (OFLX) with IC50 of 17, 33, 58, and 280 microM, respectively.

Norfloxacin (50 mumol/l) was found to reverse the inhibitory effect of GABA (100 nmol/l) on the TSH release induced by TRH (10 nmol/l).
Norfloxacin was also able to reverse the potentiating effect of GABA (10 nmol/l): the TSH response was 6.56 +/- 0.94 in the presence of GABA alone vs 2.92 +/- 0.35 with norfloxacin plus GABA.
Our results suggest that norfloxacin may antagonize the effect of GABA via the two classes of GABA A receptor sites which differ in affinity and are responsible for the dual effect of GABA on the TRH-induced TSH secretion.
The ratio of induced over spontaneous release was 0.79 +/- 0.05 in the presence of GABA, and 2.32 +/- 0.18 when norfloxacin was added 15 min before GABA vs 2.59 +/- 0.09 in the control response to TRH.
