A member asked:
Has levaquin, or any fluoroquinolone med, ever been used as a chemotherapy drug?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, but added yes!: Chemotherapy many times gives Neutropenia, ( low White blood cells) So in many institutions Flouroquinolones are added if fever develops in patients with neutropenia, Many added to Anti-Pseudomonas Penicillin and/or Cephalosporin Antibiotics.
