Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Levofloxacin 125 mg/Tobramycin 160 mg Capsules are a specially compounded medication designed for use in nasal irrigation or nebulization. This unique formulation is intended to treat a range of respiratory conditions including Chronic Sinusitis, Acute Bronchitis, Pneumonia, Cystic Fibrosis, and COPD. The medication combines the power of two antibiotics: Levofloxacin, which halts the growth of bacteria, and Tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic that eliminates sensitive bacteria. Together, these two components work synergistically to reduce inflammation and clear the airways of infection.

The capsules are designed to be used with the NeilMed™ Sinus Rinse system for nasal irrigation. To use, simply empty the contents of one (1) capsule into a standard volume (8oz) of NeilMed™ Sinus Rinse solution.

This method allows for targeted administration of the medication, ensuring that the active ingredients reach the affected areas effectively.
