Does levofloxacin 250mg still treat anything nowadays? Our institution uses this dose for neutropenia prophylaxis. Or is this basically placebo at this dose.

Infections are as deadly and debilitating as cancer. Society minimize infections under this false assumption and gets shocked at their prognosis when they get infected.

Relying solely on studies from other countries risks producing findings that may not be generalizable to American patients. Even studies conducted in other high-income countries might not fully apply to the U.S. context. U.S. centers should continue joining international multi center studies.
