Serious Adverse Reactions
Advise patients to stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection if they experience an adverse reaction and to call their healthcare provider for advice on completing the full course of treatment with another antibacterial drug.
Inform patients of the following serious adverse reactions that have been associated with Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection or other fluoroquinolone use:

  • Disabling and Potentially Irreversible Serious Adverse Reactions That May Occur Together: Inform patients that disabling and potentially irreversible serious adverse reactions, including tendinitis and tendon rupture, peripheral neuropathies, and central nervous system effects, have been associated with use of Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection and may occur together in the same patient. Inform patients to stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection immediately if they experience an adverse reaction and to call their healthcare provider.
  • Tendinitis and Tendon Rupture: Instruct patients to contact their healthcare provider if they experience pain, swelling, or inflammation of a tendon, or weakness or inability to use one of their joints; rest and refrain from exercise; and discontinue Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection treatment. Symptoms may be irreversible. The risk of severe tendon disorder with fluoroquinolones is higher in older patients usually over 60 years of age, in patients taking corticosteroid drugs, and in patients with kidney, heart or lung transplants.
  • Peripheral Neuropathies: Inform patients that peripheral neuropathies have been associated with levofloxacin use, symptoms may occur soon after initiation of therapy and may be irreversible. If symptoms of peripheral neuropathy including pain, burning, tingling, numbness and/or weakness develop, immediately discontinue Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection and tell them to contact their physician.
  • Central Nervous System Effects (for example, convulsions, dizziness, lightheadedness, increased intracranial pressure): Inform patients that convulsions have been reported in patients receiving fluoroquinolones, including levofloxacin. Instruct patients to notify their physician before taking this drug if they have a history of convulsions. Inform patients that they should know how they react to Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection before they operate an automobile or machinery or engage in other activities requiring mental alertness and coordination. Instruct patients to notify their physician if persistent headache with or without blurred vision occurs.
  • Exacerbation of Myasthenia Gravis: Instruct patients to inform their physician of any history of myasthenia gravis. Instruct patients to notify their physician if they experience any symptoms of muscle weakness, including respiratory difficulties.
  • Hypersensitivity Reactions: Inform patients that levofloxacin can cause hypersensitivity reactions, even following a single dose, and to discontinue the drug at the first sign of a skin rash, hives or other skin reactions, a rapid heartbeat, difficulty in swallowing or breathing, any swelling suggesting angioedema (for example, swelling of the lips, tongue, face, tightness of the throat, hoarseness), or other symptoms of an allergic reaction.
  • Hepatotoxicity: Inform patients that severe hepatotoxicity (including acute hepatitis and fatal events) has been reported in patients taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. Instruct patients to inform their physician if they experience any signs or symptoms of liver injury including: loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, fever, weakness, tiredness, right upper quadrant tenderness, itching, yellowing of the skin and eyes, light colored bowel movements or dark colored urine.
  • Aortic aneurysm and dissection: Inform patients to seek emergency medical care if they experience sudden chest, stomach, or back pain.
  • Diarrhea: Diarrhea is a common problem caused by antibiotics which usually ends when the antibiotic is discontinued. Sometimes after starting treatment with antibiotics, patients can develop watery and bloody stools (with or without stomach cramps and fever) even as late as two or more months after having taken the last dose of the antibiotic. If this occurs, instruct patients to contact their physician as soon as possible.
  • Prolongation of the QT Interval: Instruct patients to inform their physician of any personal or family history of QT prolongation or proarrhythmic conditions such as hypokalemia, bradycardia, or recent myocardial ischemia; if they are taking any Class IA (quinidine, procainamide), or Class III (amiodarone, sotalol) anti-arrhythmic agents. Instruct patients to notify their physician if they have any symptoms of prolongation of the QT interval, including prolonged heart palpitations or a loss of consciousness.
  • Musculoskeletal Disorders in Pediatric Patients: Instruct parents to inform their child’s physician if the child has a history of joint-related problems before taking this drug. Inform parents of pediatric patients to notify their child’s physician of any joint-related problems that occur during or following levofloxacin therapy [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.12) and Use in Specific Populations ( 8.4)].
  • Photosensitivity/Phototoxicity: Inform patients that photosensitivity/phototoxicity has been reported in patients receiving fluoroquinolones. Inform patients to minimize or avoid exposure to natural or artificial sunlight (tanning beds or UVA/B treatment) while taking fluoroquinolones. If patients need to be outdoors while using fluoroquinolones, instruct them to wear loose-fitting clothes that protect skin from sun exposure and discuss other sun protection measures with their physician. If a sunburn-like reaction or skin eruption occurs, instruct patients to contact their physician.

Antibacterial Resistance
Antibacterial drugs including levofloxacin should only be used to treat bacterial infections. They do not treat viral infections (e.g., the common cold). When Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection is prescribed to treat a bacterial infection, patients should be told that although it is common to feel better early in the course of therapy, the medication should be taken exactly as directed. Skipping doses or not completing the full course of therapy may ( 1) decrease the effectiveness of the immediate treatment and (2) increase the likelihood that bacteria will develop resistance and will not be treatable by Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection or other antibacterial drugs in the future.


Administration with Fluids
Patients should drink fluids liberally while taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection to avoid formation of a highly concentrated urine and crystal formation in the urine.

Drug Interactions with Insulin, Oral Hypoglycemic Agents, and Warfarin
Patients should be informed that if they are diabetic and are being treated with insulin or an oral hypoglycemic agent and a hypoglycemic reaction occurs, they should discontinue levofloxacin and consult a physician.

Patients should be informed that concurrent administration of warfarin and levofloxacin has been associated with increases of the International Normalized Ratio (INR) or prothrombin time and clinical episodes of bleeding. Patients should notify their physician if they are taking warfarin, be monitored for evidence of bleeding, and also have their anticoagulation tests closely monitored while taking warfarin concomitantly.

Plague and Anthrax Studies
Patients given Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection for these conditions should be informed that efficacy studies could not be conducted in humans for ethical and feasibility reasons. Therefore, approval for these conditions was based on efficacy studies conducted in animals.

Levofloxacin

(LEE-voe-FLOX-a-sin)

in 5% Dextrose Injection, for Intravenous Use

Read this Medication Guide before you start taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection and each time you get a refill. There may be new information. This Medication Guide does not take the place of talking to your healthcare provider about your medical condition or your treatment.

What is the most important information I should know about Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection? Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, can cause serious side effects. Some of these serious side effects can happen at the same time and could result in death.

If you have any of the following serious side effects while you take Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection, you should stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection and get medical help right away.

1. Tendon rupture or swelling of the tendon (tendinitis).

Tendon problems can happen in people of all ages who take Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. Tendons are tough cords of tissue that connect muscles to bones.

Some tendon problems include pain, swelling, tears, and swelling of tendons including the back of the ankle (Achilles), shoulder, hand, or other tendon sites.

• The risk of getting tendon problems while you take Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection is higher if you:

• are over 60 years of age

• are taking steroids (corticosteroids)

• have had a kidney, heart or lung transplant

• Tendon problems can happen in people who do not have the above risk factors when they take Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection.

• Other reasons that can increase your risk of tendon problems can include:

• physical activity or exercise

• kidney failure

• tendon problems in the past, such as in people with rheumatoid arthritis (RA)

• Stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection immediately and get medical help right away at the first sign of tendon pain, swelling, or inflammation. Avoid exercise and using the affected area.

The most common area of pain and swelling is the Achilles tendon at the back of your ankle. This can also happen with other tendons. You may need a different antibiotic that is not a fluoroquinolone to treat your infection.

• Tendon rupture can happen while you are taking or after you have finished taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. Tendon ruptures can happen within hours or days of taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection and have happened up to several months after people have finished taking their fluoroquinolone.

• Stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection immediately and get medical help right away if you get any of the following signs or symptoms of a tendon rupture:

• hear or feel a snap or pop in a tendon area

• bruising right after an injury in a tendon area

• unable to move the affected area or bear weight

2. Changes in sensation and possible nerve damage (Peripheral Neuropathy).

Damage to the nerves in arms, hands, legs, or feet can happen in people who take fluoroquinolones, including Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. Stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection immediately and talk to your healthcare provider right away if you get any of the following symptoms of peripheral neuropathy in your arms, hands, legs, or feet:

• pain

• numbness

• burning

• weakness

• tingling

The nerve damage may be permanent.

3. Central Nervous System (CNS) effects. Seizures have been reported in people who take fluoroquinolone antibacterial medicines, including Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of seizures before you start taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. CNS side effects may happen as soon as after taking the first dose of Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection. Stop taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection immediately and talk to your healthcare provider right away if you get any of these side effects, or other changes in mood or behavior:

• seizures

• hear voices, see things, or sense things that are not there (hallucinations)

• nightmares

• feel restless

• feel lightheaded or dizzy

• tremors

• feel more suspicious (paranoia)

• feel anxious or nervous

• suicidal thoughts or acts

• confusion

• headaches that will not go away, with or without blurred vision

• depression

4. Worsening of myasthenia gravis (a problem that causes muscle weakness). Fluoroquinolones like Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection may cause worsening of myasthenia gravis symptoms, including muscle weakness and breathing problems. Tell your healthcare provider if you have a history of myasthenia gravis before you start taking Levofloxacin in 5% Dextrose Injection.
