Health Query

I recently had a laparoscopy done to remove my raptured ectopic pregnancy but the cut above the umbilical had an infection, liquid and some pus coming out the doctor prescribed levofloxacin and zupricin, I bought zupricin but levobact instead of levofloxacin. Is levobact the same as levofloxacin?

Levobact is levoflox. You will have to express out collected pus and then use antibiotic. You will be ok soon.

I have 16 years old and I took levofloxacin (tavanic 500 mg) from 6 months ago for my acne under a prescription by my dermatologist. I still take this antibiotic 500 mg once a day for seven consecutive days in a month. Should I be concerned about the side effects? Because I saw an warning phrase that said that this antibiotic should not be administrated to children or teenagers. By the way the treatment is really effective, like after three days of taking it my skin is like never had acne and after that period for 7 days my skin is clear for 1 week and after that it starts with new pimples until the next month when I start the treatment over and over again.

Asked for female, 45 years old from Bangalore

I am taking treatment for tuberculosis. I am taking medications from the past 3 months. In the beginning doctor gave the following medication (for 8 days) 1. Rifampicin - 450 mg 2. Ethambutol - 600 mg 3. Isoniazid - 200 mg 5. Benadon - 20 mg 6. Pyrazinamide - 1000 mg then liver got affected so he put me on this for a week (7 days) (i got drug induced hepatitis) 1. Ethambutol - 600 mg 2. Levoflox 750 mg 3. Injection amikacin 500m mg (iv) then again for one week (7 days) he gave, 1. Ethambutol - 600 mg 2. Levoflox 750 mg 3. Injection amikacin 500m mg (iv) 4. Isoniazid - 100 mg taking isoniazid again affected the liver, so he stopped isoniazid and he gave this for 5 weeks, 1. Ethambutol - 600 mg 2. Levoflox 750 mg 3. Injection amikacin 500m mg (iv) then when the liver condition became ok, doctor has given the following medication 1. Rifampicin - 450 mg 2. Ethambutol - 600 mg 3. Isoniazid - 200 mg 4. Benadon - 20 mg 5. Levoflox 750 mg this is what is going on now. I am not sure if the treatment being given is right or not. I had consulted another pulmonologist who says this is not the right treatment as drugs should not be changed so often. Also he says amikacin and levoflox are given for mdr tb and not for normal tb. Now that it is already given I cannot change that. The other pulmonologist says that if it is these drugs then one needs to give it for 9 months as pyrazinamide is not given. He also says if sputum is negative then we can stop levofloxin and give the drugs for 4 months. However I am not getting sputum for testing also. I have two questions now. 1. Other than sputum testing is there any other way of finding out if tb bacteria is still there in the body. If that is the only way is there any way of generating sputum. 2. Should att-4 with the four standard medications be started again. What is the best alternative. Kindly suggest.

Pulmonologist altered regimen and added levofloxacin because you had liver side effects with pyrazinamide which was stopped
the standard regimen of rifampicin isoniazid ethambutol pyrazinamide is a guideline with exception when necessary
it is not an inviolable dictate
still in doubt consult pulmonologist at nationaltb institute bangalore malleswaram.

Post hepatitis the treating doctor is the best judge particularly for 80 year old citizen
ethambutol and levofloxacin or moxifloxacin stretomycin safe for liver
but other side effects to be watched while giving a regimen.
