Description
Floxin is used to treat bacterial infections of the skin, lungs, prostate, or urinary tract (bladder and kidneys). Floxin is also used to treat pelvic inflammatory disease and chlamydia and/or gonorrhea. Fluoroquinolone antibiotics can cause serious or disabling side effects that may not be reversible. Floxin should be used only for infections that cannot be treated with a safer antibiotic.
How To Take
Floxin is usually taken every 12 hours. Follow all directions on your prescription label. Do not take this medicine in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Take this medicine with water, and drink extra fluids to keep your kidneys working properly. You may take this medicine with or without food, at the same time each day. Use this medicine for the full prescribed length of time, even if your symptoms quickly improve. Skipping doses can increase your risk of infection that is resistant to medication. Floxin will not treat a viral infection such as the flu or a common cold. Do not share Floxin with another person. This medicine may affect a drug-screening urine test and you may have false results. Tell the laboratory staff that you use ofloxacin. Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.
Precaution
You should not use Floxin if you are allergic to ofloxacin or other fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, gemifloxacin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, norfloxacin, and others). Ofloxacin may cause swelling or tearing of a tendon (the fiber that connects bones to muscles in the body), especially in the Achilles' tendon of the heel. This can happen during treatment or up to several months after you stop taking Floxin. Tendon problems may be more likely in certain people (children and older adults, or people who use steroid medicine or have had an organ transplant). Tell your doctor if you have ever had: • tendon problems, bone problems, arthritis, or other joint problems; • blood circulation problems, aneurysm, narrowing or hardening of the arteries; • heart problems, high blood pressure; • a genetic disease such as Marfan syndrome or Ehler's-Danlos syndrome; • diabetes; • a muscle or nerve disorder, such as myasthenia gravis; • liver or kidney disease; • a seizure; • long QT syndrome (in you or a family member); or • low levels of potassium in your blood (hypokalemia). Floxin is not approved for use by anyone younger than 18 years old. It is not known whether this medicine will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant. You should not breast-feed while using this medicine.
