Levoquin TS Eye Drop 1.50% contains Levofloxacin, a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic used for the treatment of bacterial infections of the eye and ear. It is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and helps relieve symptoms such as redness, discharge, irritation, pain, and swelling caused by infection.

Levofloxacin works by inhibiting bacterial DNA replication enzymes (DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV), which are essential for bacterial growth and survival. This leads to the elimination of infection-causing bacteria and promotes faster recovery.

Levoquin TS Eye Drop is commonly prescribed for bacterial conjunctivitis, keratitis, and external ear infections (otitis externa), providing targeted local action with minimal systemic absorption.
