I would def. ask your doctor about this. Not a normal type of thing for this anti-biotic and I have never heard of a post-reaction like that after stopping it. I have Panic Disorder and know what panic attacks are like and they are no fun. Were u taking your medicine at the same time everyday? I ask this because the only thing that might cause something like this is if u were not taking your med at the same time everyday and were taking it at close intervals by accident (less than 24 hour time period). If this is the case there could be a build up of the Avelox in your system and u may have had too much and this can cause anxiety and shakiness for sure. It is more associated with an overdose, but I would assume that this could happen if your doses were not spaced out evenly. I am not a doctor, so def. check with your doctor if u were spacing doses out correctly, and if not, give it another few days b/c that might be the problem and let the drug work itself out of your body completely. Best of luck and God Bless!

Thank you, I did space them out evenly and even skipped a day to see if the feelings would subside, thinking I was just being paranoid, the third day 15 minutes after taking it I ended up in the er because I felt like I couldn't breathe. They treated it as an allergic reaction but Im still having anxiety. I went to my primary care dr and he prescribed me paxil since I have a history of panic disorder. I'm hoping that once the drug works out of my system this will stop. Thank you for your response!
