Is It Safe To Take Cifloc 500 Along With Prednisone And Spiractin?

I am a emphysema patient for quite a long time now and use a variety of medication . Once a year I end up in hospital with an excerbation. Then I m given aminophyllin and sollycortef (I probably misspelt these) on a drip and I always respond quite good. I use symbicord 320, theophyllin 300 twice daily, onbrez((started about 10 days ago with these) before that I was on Forvent , I also use an Venteze inhaler, and take 10mg of prednisone in the morning. 10 mg Monte-air , 25mg Spiractin, 2.5mg of bilk or, h5mg of Zytomil, As I have glaucoma I also have Alphagan as well as Ocuprost eye drops which tend to lessen the work of the lung medications, is that correct. After going for a flu shot, I have this clear sputum/mucus in my airways which makes it difficult to breath, I don t cough, just force it out and spit it out every now and then. I have a watery, runny nose, and SAfrica does not have Vibrocil Nasal available until the end of June and if this does not stop I know from experience that this will go down to my lungs and than I ll get this thick, colored mucus. Lastly, I have cancer in remission after a mastectomy in March 2010 and am on Tamoplex 30mg, as Kessar and Neophedan are not available in South Africa at the moment. My QUESTION IS: when taking all these medications, is it safe to take Cifloc 500 twice daily? It seems asof the American FDA is not happy with these pills for the side-effects. Further I firstly have to know much I have to pay for you reply, please. Thank you. Mona J. v. Rensburg
