Pharmacological action
Haileflox has a broad spectrum antibacterial effect.
Indications
Infectious and inflammatory diseases of mild to moderate severity, caused by drug-sensitive microorganisms: lower respiratory tract infections (pneumonia, exacerbation of chronic bronchitis)
acute bacterial sinusitis
infections of the urinary tract and kidneys (including acute pyelonephritis)
infections of the skin and soft tissues (suppurative atheroma, abscess, spermatic furuncle)
intra-abdominal infection (in combination with antibacterial drugs acting on anaerobic microflora)
tuberculosis (as part of complex treatment of drug-oral stable forms).
Contraindications
hypersensitivity to levofoxacin, other fluoroquinolones or other components of the drug with a history of
epilepsy
tendon damage associated with taking quinolones in the history of
children and adolescents under 18 years of age
pregnancy
lactation.
Precautions – advanced age (high likelihood of a concomitant decrease in renal function), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Special instructions
After normalization of body temperature, it is recommended to continue treatment for at least 48 72 hours. Levofloxacin is taken at least 2 hours before or 2 hours after taking magnesium / aluminum or sucralfate antacids, or other preparations containing calcium, iron or zinc. Due to possible photosensitization during the treatment period and within 5 days after the end of treatment with levofloxacin, it is necessary to avoid solar and artificial UV radiation. With the development of phototoxicity, drug treatment should be discontinued. When signs of tendonitis and pseudomembranous colitis appear, levofloxacin is immediately canceled. It should be borne in mind that in patients with a history of brain damage (stroke, severe trauma), seizures may develop. With glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, a risk of hemolytic reactions is possible. In patients with diabetes mellitus during treatment with levofloxacin should carefully monitor the level of glucose in the blood. With the simultaneous use of levofloxacin and warfarin, monitoring of PV, INR or other anticoagulation tests is indicated, as well as monitoring of signs of bleeding. While taking levofloxacin, the patient s ability to concentrate and the speed of psychomotor reactions may be impaired. In this regard, care must be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially dangerous activities. After normalizing body temperature, it is recommended to continue treatment for at least 48 72 hours.

Drug Interactions
Levofloxacin increases the half-life of cyclosporine. The effect of levofloxacin is reduced by drugs that inhibit intestinal motility, sucralfate, aluminum or magnesium-containing antacid drugs and iron preparations. NSAIDs and theophylline when used simultaneously with levofloxacin increase the risk of seizures in predisposed patients, and corticosteroids increase the risk of tendon rupture. With the simultaneous administration of levofloxacin with hypoglycemic drugs, changes in blood glucose levels are possible, including hyperglycemia and hypoglycemia. Levofloxacin enhances the effect of warfarin. Cimetidine and drugs blocking tubular secretion slow down the excretion of levofloxacin.
Storage Conditions
In a dry, dark place at 8 25 ° C.
