I have been on Avelox for a severe bronchitis and sinus infection, i truly was pretty ill. Within 24 hrs of taking Avelox I was feeling so much better it was amazing!! I am asthmatic and have a host of allergies..but had none of the side effects many folk here have mentioned. Avelox has to be taken with food to avoid nausea.

I finished my last dose yesterday (10 days) and it was hell. Anxiety was the worst (I already suffered from panic attacks before this medication). However it did help clear my lungs and hopefully the cranberry juice and water I'm drinking today will help alleviate the diarrhea, nausea and out of mind experiences I've had. At least I had last week off so I didn't freak at work or not make it to the bathroom on time. Wish I'd taken sick leave and not vacation! Not a real relaxing time - but I keep reminding myself how bad my lungs were congested and how scary that was. So an improvement - but at a cost I'll look to avoid if I have to resume medication.
