Some three days after the encounter I started taking antibiotics for strep throat. First amoxicillin for a week or so, but since it wasn't being very effective, the doctor switched to Levofloxacin, which I took for 2 more weeks.
Levofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone with better gram-positive activity but less activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa than ciprofloxacin. This agent is an active L-isomer of ofloxacin. Ciprofloxacin is indicated for complicated and uncomplicated urinary tract infections. It is also used for the treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis.
