Contents of the pack and other information
1. What Levofloxacino Krka is and what it is used for
The name of this medicine is Levofloxacino Krka. This medicine contains an active substance called levofloxacin, which belongs to a group of medicines known as antibiotics. Levofloxacin is an antibiotic of the quinolone type and works by killing the bacteria that cause infections in your body.
Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections and are not effective against viral infections such as influenza or the common cold. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage, administration, and duration of treatment. Do not store or reuse this medicine. If you have any antibiotic left after completing the treatment, return it to the pharmacy for proper disposal. Medicines must not be disposed of via wastewater or household waste. |
Levofloxacino Krka can be used to treat infections in:
- The paranasal sinuses,
- The lungs, in people with long-term respiratory problems or pneumonia,
- The urinary tract, including the kidneys or bladder,
- The prostate, when the infection is persistent,
- The skin and beneath the skin, including muscles. This is sometimes referred to as "soft tissues".
In certain special situations, levofloxacin may be used to reduce the chance of developing or worsening a lung infection called anthrax after exposure to the bacteria that causes anthrax.
2. What you need to know before taking Levofloxacino Krka
Do not take Levofloxacino Krka
- If you are allergic to levofloxacin, to other antibiotics of the quinolone type such as moxifloxacin, ciprofloxacin or ofloxacin, or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- If signs of an allergic reaction include: skin rash, difficulty swallowing or breathing, swelling of the lips, face, throat or tongue.
- If you have or have had epilepsy.
- If you have ever experienced tendon problems, such as tendinitis, related to taking quinolone-type medicines. Tendons are the tissues that connect your muscles to the skeleton.
- If you are a child or adolescent still undergoing growth.
- If you are pregnant, could become pregnant, or think you might be pregnant.
- If you are breastfeeding.
Do not take this medicine if any of the above conditions apply to you. If in doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Levofloxacino Krka if:
- You are 60 years of age or older.
- You are taking corticosteroids, sometimes called steroids (see section “Other medicines and Levofloxacino Krka”).
- You have received an organ transplant.
- You have ever had a seizure (epileptic fit).
- You have suffered brain damage due to stroke or other brain injury.
- You have kidney problems.
- You have what is known as “glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency”, as you may be prone to serious blood problems while taking this medicine.
- You have ever had mental health problems.
- You have ever had heart problems: caution is required when using this type of medicine if you were born with, or have a family history of, prolonged QT interval (seen on electrocardiogram (ECG), a graphical representation of the heart's electrical activity), if you have an imbalance in blood electrolyte levels (especially low potassium or magnesium levels), if you have a slow heart rate (called “bradycardia”), if you have weak heart function (heart failure), if you have a history of heart attack (myocardial infarction), if you are female or elderly, or if you are taking other medicines that may cause abnormal changes in the ECG (see section “Other medicines and Levofloxacino Krka”).
- You have peripheral nerve disorder (peripheral neuropathy).
- You have been diagnosed with enlargement or a “bulge” in a large blood vessel (aortic aneurysm or peripheral large vessel aneurysm).
- You have previously experienced aortic dissection (tearing of the aortic wall).
- You have been diagnosed with heart valve insufficiency (heart valve regurgitation).
- You have a family history of aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection, or congenital heart valve disease, or other predisposing risk factors or disorders (e.g., connective tissue disorders such as Marfan syndrome or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Turner syndrome or Sjögren's syndrome (an autoimmune inflammatory disease), or vascular disorders such as Takayasu arteritis, giant cell arteritis, Behçet's disease, known hypertension or atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis (a joint disease), or endocarditis (a heart infection)).
- You are diabetic.
- You have ever had liver problems.
- You have myasthenia gravis.
- You have previously developed a severe skin rash, skin peeling, blisters, and/or mouth sores after taking levofloxacin.
Before taking this medicine
You must not take antibacterial medicines containing fluoroquinolones or quinolones, including levofloxacin, if you have previously experienced a serious adverse reaction to a quinolone or fluoroquinolone. If this applies to you, inform your doctor as soon as possible.
During treatment with this medicine
If you experience sudden, severe pain in the abdomen, chest or back, which may be symptoms of aortic dissection or aneurysm, seek emergency medical attention immediately. The risk may be increased if you are receiving systemic corticosteroid treatment.
If you suddenly develop shortness of breath, especially when lying down, or notice swelling in your ankles, feet or abdomen, or experience palpitations (a sensation of rapid or irregular heartbeat), inform your doctor immediately.
If you begin to experience sudden, involuntary jerks, muscle spasms or muscle contractions – consult a doctor immediately, as these may be signs of myoclonus. Your doctor may need to stop treatment with levofloxacin and initiate alternative therapy.
If you have nausea, general discomfort, severe discomfort, persistent or worsening stomach pain, or vomiting, consult your doctor immediately, as this could be a sign of pancreas inflammation (acute pancreatitis).
If you experience fatigue, paleness of the skin, bruising, uncontrolled bleeding, fever, sore throat, a significant worsening of your general condition, or a feeling that your resistance to infections may be reduced – consult a doctor immediately, as these may be signs of blood disorders. Your doctor should monitor your blood with regular blood counts. If blood counts are abnormal, your doctor may need to discontinue treatment.
Rarely, joint pain and swelling, or tendon inflammation or rupture, may occur. The risk is higher if you are elderly (over 60 years), have had an organ transplant, have kidney problems, or are taking corticosteroids. Tendon inflammation and rupture may occur within the first 48 hours of treatment, or even several months after stopping levofloxacin. At the first sign of tendon pain or swelling (e.g., in the ankle, wrist, elbow, shoulder or knee), stop taking levofloxacin, contact your doctor, and rest the affected area. Avoid unnecessary physical activity, as this may increase the risk of tendon rupture.
Rarely, you may experience symptoms of nerve damage (neuropathy), such as pain, burning, tingling, numbness, and/or weakness, especially in the feet and legs or hands and arms. If this occurs, stop taking levofloxacin and inform your doctor immediately to prevent the development of a potentially irreversible disorder.
Severe, disabling, long-lasting, and potentially irreversible adverse reactions
Antibacterial medicines containing fluoroquinolones or quinolones, including levofloxacin, have been associated with very rare but serious adverse effects, some of which were long-lasting (persisting for months or years), disabling, or potentially irreversible. These include tendon, muscle and joint pain in the upper and lower limbs, difficulty walking, abnormal sensations such as pricking, tingling, pins and needles, numbness or burning (paresthesia), sensory disturbances such as reduced vision, taste, smell or hearing, depression, memory loss, severe fatigue, and serious sleep disturbances.
If you experience any of these adverse effects after taking levofloxacin, contact your doctor immediately before continuing treatment. You and your doctor will decide whether to continue treatment, possibly considering the use of an antibiotic from another class.
Serious skin reactions
Serious skin reactions including Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN), and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) have been reported with the use of levofloxacin.
-
SJS/TEN may initially appear on the trunk as red, target-like spots or circular patches, often with blisters in the center. Mouth, throat, nose, genital, and eye ulcers (red, swollen eyes) may also occur. These severe skin rashes are often preceded by fever and/or flu-like symptoms. The rashes may progress to widespread skin peeling and life-threatening or fatal complications.
-
DRESS initially presents with flu-like symptoms and a facial rash, followed by a more widespread rash, fever, elevated liver enzymes in blood tests, increased levels of a type of white blood cell (eosinophilia), and enlarged lymph nodes.
If you develop a severe rash or any of these skin symptoms, stop taking levofloxacin and contact your doctor or seek immediate medical attention.
If you are unsure whether any of these situations apply to you, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.
Children and adolescents
This medicine must not be given to children or adolescents.
Other medicines and Levofloxacino Krka
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might need to take any other medicines. This is because levofloxacin may affect how other medicines work. Additionally, some medicines may affect how levofloxacin works.
In particular, inform your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines, as they may increase the risk of adverse effects when taken with levofloxacin:
- Corticosteroids, sometimes called steroids, used for inflammation. You may be more likely to experience tendon inflammation and/or rupture.
- Warfarin – used to thin the blood. You may have an increased risk of bleeding. Your doctor may need periodic blood tests to check your blood's clotting ability.
- Theophylline – used for breathing problems. You may have an increased risk of seizures when taken with levofloxacin.
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) – used for pain and inflammation, such as acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprofen, fenbufen, ketoprofen, indomethacin. You may have an increased risk of seizures when taken with levofloxacin.
- Cyclosporine – used after organ transplants. You may be more likely to experience adverse effects of cyclosporine.
- Medicines known to affect heart rhythm. These include medicines used for abnormal heart rhythm (antiarrhythmics such as quinidine, hydroquinidine, disopyramide, sotalol, dofetilide, ibutilide, and amiodarone), for depression (tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptiline and imipramine), for psychiatric disorders (antipsychotics), and for bacterial infections (macrolide antibiotics such as erythromycin, azithromycin, and clarithromycin).
- Probenecid (used for gout) and cimetidine (used for ulcers and heartburn). Special care is needed when taking these medicines with levofloxacin. If you have kidney problems, your doctor may consider a lower dose.
Do not take levofloxacin at the same time as the following medicines, as they may affect the effectiveness of levofloxacin:
- Iron tablets (for anemia), zinc supplements, antacids containing aluminium or magnesium (for acidity or heartburn), didanosine, or sucralfate (for stomach ulcers). See section 3 “If you are already taking iron, zinc supplements, antacids, didanosine or sucralfate” below.
Opioid urine testing
Urine tests may show “false positive” results for strong painkillers called “opioids” in patients taking levofloxacin. Inform your doctor that you are taking levofloxacin if you are prescribed a urine test.
Tuberculosis test
This medicine may cause a “false negative” result in certain laboratory tests used to detect the bacteria causing tuberculosis.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Do not take this medicine if:
- you are pregnant, could become pregnant, or think you might be pregnant,
- you are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you might be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.
Driving and using machines
Some adverse effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, dizziness (vertigo), or visual disturbances may occur. Some of these effects may affect your ability to concentrate or reduce your reaction speed. If this occurs, do not drive or operate machinery requiring high attention.
Levofloxacino Krka contains sunset yellow FCF (E110)
This medicine may cause allergic reactions because it contains sunset yellow. It may trigger asthma, especially in patients allergic to acetylsalicylic acid.
