Has anyone had problems with this antibiotic? I've been reading up on it and asked my ocologist about it and he just stated that all medication has side affects.

    No...
    ...They put me on it when I had that infection from my wisdom teeth a few months back, but I had no problems with it...they did tell me however to not take it on an empty stomach, to always eat something before.

    Hugsss!

    LEVAQUIN :)
    It's good, Raquel...best antibiotic for infections that mankind has and the strongest.

    We just got a Rx of Levaquin at the ER this morning for my wife.

    Please let me know if she developes any complications with her my tendons or sore joints.

    I have a sore neck but it may that I slept wrong. I was on Lavaquin antibiotics a couple weeks ago but blame my neck and hip sitffness on the dancing I did last Saturday; at least, hope that's all it was/is.

    Take care!
