Frequently Asked Questions
What is Levaquin? Levaquin is a broad-spectrum quinolone antibiotic, meaning it is effective against a wide range of disease-causing bacteria. Levaquin is used to treat lung, sinus, skin and urinary tract infections that are caused by bacteria, but it does not kill viruses that may also infect the lungs and sinuses, such as the common cold.
What are some side effects? Tendon ruptures. Some patients have reported ruptures of shoulder, hand, or Achilles tendons. For older patients usually over 60 years of age, patients taking corticosteroid drugs, and patients with kidney, heart, or lung transplants, the risk of tendonitis or tendon rupture is increased. If you develop any pain, swelling, or rupture of a tendon, stop taking Levaquin and contact your doctor right away.
How do you know if you have had a Tendon Rupture? Some symptoms of a Tendon Rupture include: • Inability to move • Bruising in the affected area • A popping or snapping sound in the tendon area • Severe pain or swelling in the tendon area
