I took Levaquin for 5 days (500mg). By the end of that time I was having
extreme joint and muscle pain. Diagnosed for Pneumonia while I was
out of state over holidays. Upon going to my home doctor she immediately
knew this was the Levaquin and after 10 days of prescribed steroids I seem to be past this. THERE WAS NOTHING IN MY DRUG BOOK OR
IN THE INFO AT THE DRUGSTORE THAT ALERTED ME TO THIS SIDE
EFFECT. Please be aware of this. Also stomach bloat and pains.
please send in a medwatch report to www.fda.gov

The warnings were included in both my Cipro and Levaquin fact sheets I was given at the pharmacy, yet one doctor I saw completely disavowed it. In other words, she stands by the position that even though the tendon rupture warnings {among others} are present on the drug's fact sheet supplied by its manufacturer, she insists the side effects do not stem from the drug.
