Product Details

Description

Levaquin (levofloxacin) is a prescription antibiotic available in 500 mg tablets, used to treat various bacterial infections, including those of the respiratory, urinary tract, sinus, skin, and prostate systems, as well as anthrax and plague exposure. It works by inhibiting bacterial DNA replication, effectively killing harmful bacteria. Common side effects of Levaquin 500 mg tablets include nausea, headache, and dizziness, but serious risks like tendon rupture, nerve damage, and heart rhythm changes require caution. Additionally, you can store Levaquin tablets in a cool, dry place to avoid potential interactions with medications such as warfarin or prednisone. If you wish to order Levaquin from Canada, please obtain a valid prescription from your doctor.

Usage Guide

When you buy Levaquin online, follow these administration guidelines:

  • Take these tablets at the same time each day to maintain consistent dosing levels in your body.

  • Do not chew the Levaquin tablet—swallow it whole with a full glass of water.
How It Works

Levaquin (levofloxacin) works by targeting and disabling two crucial bacterial enzymes—DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV—which are essential for bacteria to replicate, repair, and transcribe their DNA. By interfering with these enzymes, Levaquin effectively halts the bacteria’s ability to multiply and survive, leading to their death. This mechanism makes it a bactericidal antibiotic, meaning it kills bacteria rather than just stopping their growth. It’s especially effective against a wide range of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, which is why it’s used to treat various infections, like pneumonia, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and skin infections.

Warnings

If you plan to order Levaquin from Canada, consider the following warnings:

  • Tendon Rupture: Levaquin may cause inflammation or rupture of tendons, particularly the Achilles tendon. This risk, in particular, is higher in older adults and those taking corticosteroids. Discontinue use at the first sign of tendon pain or swelling.
  • Nerve Damage (Peripheral Neuropathy): Levaquin can cause long-lasting or permanent nerve damage, leading to pain, tingling, or weakness. Stop treatment immediately if symptoms occur.
  • Central Nervous System Effects: Levaquin may trigger seizures, tremors, anxiety, confusion, hallucinations, or suicidal thoughts. Use caution in patients with a history of neurological disorders.
  • Myasthenia Gravis: Levaquin may exacerbate muscle weakness in individuals with myasthenia gravis, increasing the risk of severe respiratory failure, which can be life-threatening. It is contraindicated in patients with this condition.
  • Blood Sugar Disturbances: Levaquin may cause both hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), especially in diabetic patients. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.
  • Severe Allergic Reactions: Levaquin can cause serious allergic reactions, including itching, rash, swelling, and, in rare cases, anaphylaxis. Seek immediate medical attention if symptoms occur.
Safety Guide

People often order Levaquin online and follow these recommended precautionary measures:

  • Heart Conditions: It may cause QT prolongation, a condition that affects the heart's rhythm. Let your doctor know if you have a history of heart issues or are taking medications that affect heart rhythm.
  • Special Populations: Levaquin is not typically recommended for children, pregnant women, or breastfeeding mothers unless absolutely necessary. Kidney function should also be monitored in older adults.
  • Photosensitivity: Levaquin increases sensitivity to sunlight, raising the risk of severe sunburn. Avoid excessive sun exposure & use protective measures.
Missed Dose

If you miss a dose of the Levaquin tablet, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it’s almost time for your next scheduled Levaquin dose, in which case, skip the missed one and continue your daily dosing schedule. Never double the Levaquin dose to make up for it.

Overdose

For an overdose of Levaquin, symptoms may include dizziness, confusion, tremors, seizures, or difficulty breathing. An overdose of Levaquin requires immediate medical attention. You can contact emergency services or a Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222, as Levaquin isn’t effectively cleared from the body by dialysis.
