Overview Levoxin 500mg Tablet

Levofloxacin 500mg tablets are a broad-spectrum antibiotic indicated for various bacterial infections. These include urinary tract infections, and infections affecting the nose, throat, skin, and lungs (pneumonia). This medication halts the proliferation of infectious bacteria, thereby resolving the infection. Always adhere to your physician's prescribed dosage and treatment duration. This medication can be ingested with or without food, ideally at a consistent time each day. Complete the entire course of treatment, even if symptoms improve; never skip doses. If a dose is missed, do not double the next dose; simply proceed with the usual schedule. Common side effects include headache, dizziness, nausea, and constipation. These are generally transient and self-limiting, however, persistent or bothersome symptoms warrant medical consultation. Diarrhea is another potential side effect, usually resolving upon treatment completion. Report persistent diarrhea or blood in the stool to your doctor immediately. Individuals with known allergies to any component of this medication should avoid its use. Patients with kidney impairment require careful monitoring while using this antibiotic.
