Levoflox Tablet is an antibiotic medication prescribed for treating bacterial infections in adults and children (above 6 months of age). It effectively treats infections of the urinary tract, respiratory system (nose, throat, lungs), skin, and pneumonia. The medication works by inhibiting the growth and multiplication of disease-causing bacteria.

Take Levoflox Tablet exactly as prescribed by your physician, maintaining consistent timing for doses. It can be taken with or without food. Complete the entire prescribed course even if symptoms improve, and never double doses to compensate for missed ones. Simply continue with your regular dosing schedule.

Common side effects may include headache, dizziness, nausea, and constipation, which typically subside as your body adjusts. Consult your doctor if these persist or become bothersome. Diarrhea may occur but should resolve after completing treatment. Seek immediate medical attention if diarrhea persists or if you notice blood in your stool.

This medication is contraindicated if you have known hypersensitivity to its components. Patients with kidney impairment require special monitoring while using this drug.

THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS OF LEVOFLOX TABLET

Management of bacterial infections

THERAPEUTIC ADVANTAGES

For Bacterial Infections

Levoflox Tablet is a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against various bacterial infections affecting multiple body systems. It treats respiratory (ear, nose, throat, lungs), urinary tract, skin, and soft tissue infections in both pediatric (over 6 months) and adult populations. The medication exerts its therapeutic effect by bactericidal action – eliminating pathogenic bacteria and preventing their proliferation.
While symptomatic relief may occur rapidly, complete the prescribed course to ensure full eradication of infection and prevent development of antibiotic resistance.

ADVERSE EFFECTS

Most adverse reactions are transient and resolve as your system adapts to the medication. Medical consultation is recommended if symptoms persist or cause concern.

Frequently observed reactions

Cephalalgia (headache)
Vertigo (dizziness)
Emesis (nausea)
Bowel irregularity (constipation)
Loose stools (diarrhea)

ADMINISTRATION GUIDELINES

Administer this medication exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. Swallow the tablet whole with water, without chewing or crushing. While timing relative to meals is flexible, maintaining consistent dosing intervals is recommended.
Avoid concurrent consumption with dairy products (milk, cheese, yogurt, butter, paneer, ice cream) as they may interfere with drug absorption.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Levoflox Tablet belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics. Its bactericidal action results from inhibition of bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes, which are essential for DNA replication, transcription, and repair in bacterial cells. This dual mechanism leads to rapid bacterial cell death.
