Levofloxacin 250 mg is an antibiotic medication that belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of drugs. It's a broad-spectrum antibiotic, meaning it's effective against a wide range of bacteria.

How it works: Levofloxacin works by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, enzymes that are essential for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. By blocking these enzymes, levofloxacin prevents bacteria from multiplying and repairing themselves, ultimately leading to their death.
