Levendex

Dexamethasone/Levofloxacin, the active ingredients in Levendex, are a corticosteroid and fluoroquinolone antibiotic combination presented as an ophthalmic solution for topical ocular use. It treats bacterial conjunctivitis and postoperative eye inflammation in patients as prescribed.

GNH USA supplies Levendex as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.

Levendex, a combined corticosteroid and fluoroquinolone ophthalmic solution, is used to manage bacterial and inflammatory eye conditions.

- Bacterial conjunctivitis: reduces bacterial load and resolves infection. - Post‑operative ocular inflammation: controls inflammation and prevents infection after eye surgery. - Non‑infectious ocular inflammation: decreases redness, swelling and discomfort associated with inflammatory eye disease.

Levendex may cause ocular and systemic reactions, most of which are mild and transient.

Common Side Effects: - Stinging or burning sensation at the application site. - Blurred vision shortly after instillation. - Eye discomfort or foreign‑body sensation. - Increased tearing. - Mild headache. - Temporary redness.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Allergic reaction with swelling, rash or hives. - Severe eye pain or worsening vision. - Secondary ocular infection. - Elevated intra‑ocular pressure, especially in glaucoma patients. - Corneal ulceration or perforation. - Vision loss.

Before using Levendex, consider the following safety measures.

- Assess for viral or fungal eye infection: avoid use if present. - Monitor intra‑ocular pressure: especially in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. - Use with caution in diabetic patients: infection signs may be masked. - Avoid concurrent use of other ophthalmic steroids without medical supervision. - Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from light and moisture.

Levendex can interact with other medications; awareness of major and moderate interactions helps ensure safe use.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Systemic fluoroquinolones: increased risk of tendon rupture. - Other ocular corticosteroids: additive risk of elevated intra‑ocular pressure.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Anticholinergic eye drops: may reduce absorption of Levendex. - Non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory eye drops: may affect ocular healing. - Beta‑blocker eye drops: monitor for additive effects on intra‑ocular pressure.
