Taking a seven-day course of Levaquin in Dec. 06 resulted in two heart attacks - subsequent catheterization dissected my right cronary artery, necessitating a bypass.

Although Ortho-McNeil has a program to compensate victims for out-of-pocket expenses, they have been slow and reluctant to cooperate, despite admitting that the drug caused my problems.
