"I was prescribed to take this for 10 days. After 5 days, I could not handle the side effects I experienced. I was so exhausted, but the medicine made me so dizzy and nauseous that I couldn't sleep. And when I did manage to get a few hours, I had the most vivid and bizarre dreams. I was also taking Flagyl and developed oral thrush. I would not take Levaquin again."

For Bladder Infection "If you don't drink enough water, you'll probably get a major headache. I have also experienced nausea and dizziness, again probably due to not enough water. It did clear up my infection, though."

For Prostatitis "Been taking Levaquin for about 33 days, and to be honest, I have had different side effects, from anxiety to joint pain to dizziness to feeling lethargic to muscle/tendon discomfort. My prostatitis has gotten better, from 16.6 to 7.8, from the start of the antibiotics to about 2 weeks. So I will see if, after I take the full course, it dropped my PSA level within normal range."
