restricting the use of Trovan (trovafloxacin)

July 1999

The FDA is restricting the use of Trovan (trovafloxacin)...too many cases of severe liver toxicity.

Since Trovan came out last year, there have been over 100 reports of liver toxicity...including 6 deaths.

Now the FDA recommends Trovan ONLY for patients with potentially life-threatening infections...who begin therapy in hospitals or long-term care facilities.
