Comparing Levaquin vs Levofloxacin

For Sinusitis I'm on day three of this antibiotic. I've taken 6 other antibiotics for sinus infection, bronchitis and severe ear infections due to allergic reaction in Dec. I've not experienced too bad of sleep issues since the first night (I already struggle with sleep). Huge loss of appetite and need to increase water consumption. Just began experiencing a lot if drainage that chokes me when I cough. Waiting for the medication to work on my ears because I can't hear at all! Really worried about the muscle issues since I do work out a lot and need to for sanity but am taking time off while on this medication. Hopeful after reading post that this will help clear out the infection!

For Sinusitis After 10 days on Levaquin, my sinusitis is better but the side effects are killing me. My mouth is so dry and I'm having horrendous dreams that are so vivid and disturbing. I can't wait for the cycle to be over.

For Pneumonia I was diagnosed with pneumonia on 2/8/18 and given Levofloxacin 750 with 10mg of prednisone 2x daily. The first 3 day's I thought I was going to go out of my mind, constant insomnia (probably from the prednisone) with my head feeling crazy. Last night I took (1) Benadryl tablet to see if it would help, well believe it or not I eventually fell asleep for a couple of hours and got for awhile and fell back asleep for 2-3 more hours. I did wake up somewhat groggy and it took a couple hours to feel better. At least I got some sleep. If you are experiencing insomnia try the Benadryl it might help you. Made it easier to take this mornings dose. I hope everybody going through some of the same thing I'm battling good luck and if your gut tells you you can't take it anymore I think it's well understood why.

For Pneumonia Was diagnosed with pneumonia 3 days ago had severe cough, diarrhea, and a fever of 102. Was put on levofloxacin 500mg for 7 days started with a round of IV antibiotics at the hospital the next day I was finally able to get out of bed, my cough was nearly gone and fever has subsided. I did have a few negative side effects. Insomnia, once I did fall asleep I woke up drenched in sweat, and just an overall dull feeling.
