Brief Answer:
no known interactions

Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

There are no known interactions between these substances.

They can be safely used together.

There are other interactions with levofloxacin so if you are using other medications, these can be checked as well

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
