Can children use levaquin (levofloxacin)?

Yes, but limited: Levofloxacin (Levaquin) eye drops are very effective for "pink eye." Systemic use of levaquin (levofloxacin) is limited though, in children under age 17 , i.e., chronic draining ear infection, severe kidney infection caused by multiply resistant bacteria, or cystic fibrosis.

Levaquin (levofloxacin): Normally Levaquin (levofloxacin) is not used in patients under the age of 18 unless there is a very specific reason to do so.
