Is levaquin (levofloxacin) better than zpak?

Depends on bug: Try not to think of antibiotics in terms of "better" or "worse", rather by what bugs they treat and side effect profile. For example, Levaquin (levofloxacin) works well for kidney and prostate infections, whereas we wouldn't use it for something like chlamydia first line (that would be Azithromycin or what's in the zpack). Levaquin (levofloxacin) has a black box warning for tendon rupture, zpack no black box warning.

CAN NOT COMPARE: These are two different Antibiotics with different indications and uses and rarey used together Levaquin is a quinolone with wider coverage han Zithromax.But Zithromax is very effective and has to be taken either once or for 5 days most of the time CAN NOT COMPARE

2 different classes: of antibiotics that have different indications so cannot compare Each is better for certain indications.

Depends: It depends on what you are treating.
