The results confirm an increased concentration-time profile of ciprofloxacin when the latter is co-administered with paracetamol. We believe that a pharmacokinetic interaction may have occurred.

Ethyl 7,8-diamino-1-cyclopropyl-6-fluoro-4-oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline-3-carboxylate (6) and its free acid 7 are prepared by chemical reduction of the respective 7-azido-8-nitroquinoline 5. Consecutive nucleophilic addition and cyclocondensation reactions of 6 with α-acetyl-N-arylhydrazonoyl chlorides 8a - c in ethanol and triethylamine are site-selective and yield the corresponding 3-(aryldiazinyl)- 2-methylpyrido[2,3- f ]quinoxalines 10a - c. Analytical and spectral (IR, MS, NMR) data of 6, 7, and 10a - c are in conformity with the assigned structures.

Concomitant administration of ciprofloxacin with paracetamol may result in a delayed onset of action of paracetamol.
