Comparing Levofloxacin

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.
