1. What Levofloxacino Viatris is and what it is used for

Levofloxacin belongs to a group of medicines called antibiotics. Levofloxacin is a type of antibiotic known as a quinolone 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 the flu or the common cold.

It is important that you follow your doctor's instructions regarding dose, dosing interval, and duration of treatment.

Do not store or reuse this medicine. If you have any antibiotic left over after completing your treatment, return it to the pharmacy for proper disposal. Do not dispose of medicines via wastewater or household waste.

Levofloxacino Viatris 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.
  • 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 risk of developing or worsening a lung infection called anthrax after exposure to the bacterium that causes anthrax.

2. What you need to know before taking Levofloxacino Viatris

Do not take Levofloxacino Viatris 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 components of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Signs of an allergic reaction include: skin rash, difficulty swallowing or breathing, swelling of lips, face, throat or tongue.

  • You suffer from or have had epilepsy.
  • You have previously experienced tendon problems such as tendinitis related to taking quinolone-type medications. Tendons are the tissues connecting your muscles to your skeleton.
  • You are a child or adolescent who is still growing.
  • You are pregnant, could become pregnant, or think you might be pregnant.
  • 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 levofloxacin.

Warnings and precautions

Before starting this medicine

You should 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.

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting Levofloxacino Viatris:

  • If you are 60 years of age or older.
  • If you have been diagnosed with an enlarged or "bulging" large blood vessel (aortic aneurysm or peripheral large vessel aneurysm).
  • If you have previously experienced aortic dissection (a tear in the wall of the aorta).
  • If you have been diagnosed with heart valve insufficiency (regurgitation of heart valves).
  • If you have a family history of aortic dissection or aneurysm, congenital heart valve disease, or other risk factors or predisposing conditions (e.g., connective tissue disorders such as Marfan syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Turner syndrome, Sjögren's syndrome (an inflammatory autoimmune disease), or vascular disorders such as Takayasu arteritis, giant cell arteritis, Behçet's disease, hypertension, known atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis (a joint disease), or endocarditis (a heart infection)).
  • You are taking corticosteroids, sometimes called steroids (see section “Other medicines and Levofloxacino Viatris”).
  • 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 advised 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), have an imbalance in blood electrolyte levels (especially low potassium or magnesium levels), have a slow heart rate (called “bradycardia”), have heart failure, 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 Viatris”).
  • You are diabetic.
  • You have ever had liver problems.
  • You suffer from myasthenia gravis.
  • You have previously developed a severe skin rash, skin peeling, blisters and/or mouth sores after taking levofloxacin.

Inform your doctor or pharmacist before taking levofloxacin if you are unsure whether any of the above conditions apply to you.

During treatment with this medicine

Rarely, joint pain and swelling, and tendon inflammation or rupture may occur. The risk is higher if you are elderly (over 60 years), have received an organ transplant, have kidney problems, or are being treated with corticosteroids. Tendon inflammation and rupture may occur within the first 48 hours of treatment and even several months after stopping levofloxacin treatment. 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, prickling, 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 condition.

Avoid direct exposure to sunlight and ultraviolet lamps during treatment and for 2 days after stopping treatment with levofloxacin (see also section 3, “Protect your skin from sunlight”).

Serious, long-lasting, disabling and potentially irreversible adverse effects

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, burning or stinging (paresthesia), sensory disturbances such as reduced vision, taste, smell and hearing, depression, memory impairment, severe fatigue and serious sleep disorders.

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.

Severe skin reactions

Severe 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 reddish, target-like spots or circular lesions, often with blisters in the center. Ulcers may also develop in the mouth, throat, nose, genitals and eyes (red, swollen eyes). 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, elevated body temperature, increased liver enzymes in blood tests, elevated levels of a type of white blood cell (eosinophilia) and swollen 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 experience sudden, severe abdominal, chest or back pain, which may be symptoms of aortic dissection or aneurysm, go immediately to the emergency department. The risk may be increased if you are receiving systemic corticosteroid treatment.
  • If you begin to experience sudden onset of shortness of breath, especially when lying down, or notice swelling in your ankles, feet or abdomen, or develop palpitations (sensation of rapid or irregular heartbeat), inform your doctor immediately.
  • If you begin to experience sudden, involuntary jerking movements, muscle spasms or contractions – consult a doctor immediately, as these could be signs of myoclonus. Your doctor may need to discontinue levofloxacin treatment and initiate appropriate therapy.
  • If you have nausea, malaise, severe discomfort, persistent or worsening stomach pain or vomiting, seek immediate medical attention, as this could be a sign of pancreas inflammation (acute pancreatitis).
  • If you experience fatigue, pale skin, bruising, uncontrolled bleeding, fever, sore throat and a significant worsening of your general condition, or a feeling that your resistance to infections may be reduced – consult a doctor immediately, as these could be signs of blood disorders. Your doctor should monitor your blood with blood counts. If blood counts are abnormal, your doctor may need to discontinue treatment.

Other medicines and Levofloxacino Viatris

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. In addition, 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 require periodic blood tests to check your blood clotting.
  • Theophylline, used for respiratory 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 (aspirin), 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 your 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. If you have kidney problems, your doctor may wish to prescribe a lower dose.
  • Cimetidine, used for ulcers and heartburn. If you have kidney problems, your doctor may wish to prescribe a lower dose.

Do not take levofloxacin at the same time as the following medicines, as they may affect the action 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 tablets, zinc supplements, antacids, didanosine or sucralfate” below.

Urine opiate tests

Urine tests may show "false positive" results for strong painkillers called "opiates" in patients taking levofloxacin. Inform your doctor that you are taking levofloxacin if you are prescribed a urine test.

Tuberculosis testing

This medicine may cause a "false negative" result in some laboratory tests used to detect the bacteria causing tuberculosis.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Do not take this medicine if:

  • You are pregnant, could be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant.
  • You are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed.

Driving and using machines

Some adverse effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, loss of balance (vertigo) or visual disturbances may occur. Some of these adverse effects may affect your ability to concentrate or reduce your reaction speed. If this occurs, do not drive or perform any work requiring a high level of attention.

3. How to take Levofloxacin Viatris

Follow exactly the instructions for using this medicine given by your doctor or pharmacist. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.

How to take this medicine
