About Levaquin and Infections
LEVAQUIN® is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic medicine used in adults, 18 years or older, to treat certain infections caused by certain germs called bacteria. Not all bacteria are the same—and neither are all antibiotics.
While all antibiotics kill some types of bacteria, LEVAQUIN® consistently kills the bacteria that most commonly cause bacterial sinus or bronchial infections, including Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis. It also has been shown to be effective in treating certain bacterial genitourinary infections and certain bacterial skin structure infections. LEVAQUIN® is not effective for treating all types of infections, in particular, ones due to MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus).
Sometimes infections are caused by viruses rather than by bacteria. Examples include viral infections in the sinuses and lungs, such as the common cold or flu. Antibiotics, including LEVAQUIN®, do not kill viruses.
LEVAQUIN® is available by prescription in tablet, oral solution, and intravenous forms.
Among the types of infections for which LEVAQUIN is prescribed are:
Sinusitis; Chronic Brochitis; Pneumonia; Urinary, and Skin infections.
