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. The resulting mixture should be used to irrigate each nostril twice daily, using half a bottle per nostril each time. This method allows for targeted administration of the medication, ensuring that the active ingredients reach the affected areas effectively.

At Bayview Pharmacy, our team of compounding pharmacists are dedicated to providing the highest standard of care for our patients. We have extensive experience in preparing a wide range of compounded medications, and we are always available to answer any questions you may have about this formulation or any other compounded medications. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us for any further information or clarification.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
