Levaquin (levofloxacin): My son had a severe skin infection so my doctor gave him this medicine. He took it immediately on a empty stomach. He had just got home from Doctor's office. It made him sick so he threw up. I called the Doctor's office and told them what happeened and they told me to not give it to him anymore. It wasn't worth the side effect for my son.

Levaquin (levofloxacin): I had a severe skin infection, and I used this medication and I had no issues. I was told not to overdose by taking the medicine to close together but altogether a positive experience. VERY Pricey though, that's the only downfall.

Levaquin (levofloxacin): Prescribed this medicine for a skin infection. Side effects that I experienced were: confusion, sensitivity to sun, could feel some old muscle/tendon injuries stiffening, depression and even had some thoughts of suicide. These side effects were very real and tied directly to taking the medicine. I could feel the confusion and depression lift, literally within 2 minutes, when the side effect wore off. The depression would dissipate about 8 hours after taking the 500mg pill.

levofloxacin: I took this medicine for Klebsiella Pneumoniae colonized on my skin. It cleared the bumps within 2 days, and maintained effective 2 weeks after I stopped it. However, after 2 weeks, the bumps came back again. But one thing to mention is that I had tried more than 10 kinds of antibiotic, the bumps always comes back immediately after stopping the medicine. However, this one lasted longer, but still did not cured.
