Levofloxacin is a broad‑spectrum fluoroquinolone used to treat bacterial infections affecting several organ systems.

- Respiratory tract infection: eradicates the causative bacteria and improves breathing symptoms. - Urinary tract infection: clears urinary pathogens and resolves dysuria and frequency. - Skin and soft tissue infection: eliminates skin‑resident bacteria and promotes wound healing. - Sinusitis: reduces sinus inflammation by targeting the infecting organisms. - Pharyngitis: treats bacterial throat infection and alleviates sore throat.

Levofloxacin may cause a variety of adverse reactions, ranging from mild to severe.

Common Side Effects: - Nausea: mild to moderate stomach upset. - Diarrhea: loose stools, sometimes watery. - Headache: transient cranial discomfort. - Dizziness: sensation of light‑headedness. - Insomnia: difficulty falling or staying asleep. - Photosensitivity: increased skin reaction to sunlight.

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Tendon rupture: sudden pain and loss of function, especially in the Achilles tendon. - QT interval prolongation: potential cardiac arrhythmias. - Severe allergic reactions: rash, swelling, or anaphylaxis. - Clostridioides difficile infection: severe colitis with watery diarrhea. - Peripheral neuropathy: tingling or numbness in extremities. - Hepatotoxicity: abnormal liver function tests or jaundice.

Levofloxacin should be used with caution in specific clinical situations.

- Assess renal function: dose adjustment may be required in impaired kidneys. - Avoid in known hypersensitivity: discontinue if allergic reactions occur. - Monitor for tendon pain: stop the drug if tendon inflammation develops. - Use cautiously in patients with QT‑prolonging conditions: obtain ECG if risk is high. - Separate from antacids or supplements containing aluminum, magnesium, calcium, or iron: administer at least 2 hours apart. - Store at ambient temperature: keep below 25 °C, in the original packaging, protected from moisture.

Levofloxacin can interact with several medicines, altering efficacy or safety.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - Antacids containing aluminum or magnesium: reduce levofloxacin absorption. - Warfarin: may increase INR and bleeding risk. - Theophylline: heightened risk of toxicity and seizures.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Other fluoroquinolones (e.g., ciprofloxacin): additive QT‑prolongation. - NSAIDs: increased chance of central nervous system effects. - Cyclosporine: elevated cyclosporine concentrations.
