Zolivox is an antibiotic used to treat serious bacterial infections, particularly infections of the lungs (pneumonia), skin, and soft tissues. It should be taken regularly at a fixed time, with or without food, exactly as prescribed by the doctor. Completing the full course is essential, even if symptoms improve earlier, to prevent relapse or antibiotic resistance.
