  • Heart Conditions: Levofloxacin can cause heart rhythm problems (QT prolongation). Caution is needed in patients with heart disease, especially those taking other drugs that affect the heart's rhythm.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: It should generally be avoided during pregnancy, particularly during the first trimester, and may not be suitable for breastfeeding mothers.
  • Kidney Function: Levofloxacin is primarily excreted by the kidneys, so patients with kidney problems may need a lower dose and closer monitoring.
  • Nervous System: Levofloxacin can cause side effects like dizziness or mental health issues, so patients should be cautious when operating machinery or driving.
