They both contain the same active ingredient, Levofloxacin, which is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections.

The NIH lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.

Have you started taking it, yet?
