Should Levofloxacin Be Taken One Day After Taking Amoxicillin?

I was taking amoxicillin for a sinus infection. Took my last one this morning and doctor put me on levofloxacin as my infection wasn t gone. The levofloxacin says to take one a day and I took my amoxicillin this morning, should I wait until tomorrow before starting the levofloxacin?

Hello,

You can take Levofloxacin today evening, as Amoxicillin effect lasts for about 8 hours. For a sinus infection, I would also advise you to drink warm water at regular intervals.

Do steam inhalation 3 times a day with easy breathe capsules or Karvol plus. Washing your face with warm water helps.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
