Ofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that can chelate with metal ions (e.g., iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc) found in supplements. This can reduce the absorption of ofloxacin, decreasing its efficacy.
To avoid this interaction, take iron or Neurobion at least 2 hours before or 4-6 hours after ofloxacin.

It is recommended to take Ofloxacin and iron tablets at least 2-3 hours apart, as iron can interfere with the absorption of Ofloxacin, reducing its effectiveness.
