Levofloxacin 500mg For A Tooth Infection

Can I take Levofloxacin 500mg for tooth infections? My tooth is broken in half with a lot of pain added to it.

Yes, it is an antibiotic that can be used to treat various types of bacterial infections. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.

However, it is also important to still seek proper treatment, or this issue will likely continue to keep getting worse.

Is there anything else I can help with?
