My finance was prescribed Levaquin for a food borne bacterial infection. On day 4 of the antibiotic, he broke out into a horrible body rash. It is all everywhere from scalp to toes. It started as a small rash under the arms and by the next day it was a small bump-like rash all over. Then it got splotchy...red and white... we went to the ER and they gave him the usual steroid and anxiety control drugs to help but he now looks as if he has a sun burn and is developing bruse-like purple patches all over his legs and groin. He is almost convulsing due to the pain. Has anyone had this reaction?
