I have a z-pack that was not needed recently due to dr changing scrip to levoquin. can the pills be crushed to give to my 5 year old for bact pinkeye?

No: Not the right treatment for your youngster. Eye infection deserves an urgent visit to the doctor (either primary care office or urgent care center). If there is pain when moving the eye or any vision effect, then to the ER.
