What Experts Say

Levofloxacin blocks enzymes that bacteria need to copy their DNA, which stops the infection from spreading and lets the immune system clear it.

It is taken once daily at the same time with plenty of water, and the full course should be completed even if symptoms improve early.

The most important safety point is that fluoroquinolones carry a real risk of tendon and nerve damage, so any sudden joint or tendon pain during treatment needs prompt medical attention.
