Individuals with a non-severe** penicillin allergy SHOULD NOT receive a penicillin but cephalosporins, carbepenems and other beta-lactams can be used for these patients with caution as the risk of cross sensitivity is low
Levofloxacin (Levaquin) Levofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone (flor-o-KWIN-o-lone) antibiotic that fights bacteria in the body
Severe allergic reactions to levofloxacin are possible, including life-threatening reactions like facial swelling, shock, and anaphylaxis (e
