Other fluoroquinolones include Avelox and Tequin.

I had a hideous reaction to Levaquin.

It was not an allergic reaction, but an untreatable toxic reaction. It was in fact fluoride poisoning.

I think we need to avoid recommending specific drugs. This is out of the scope of this group.

> I find a Z-pak (Zithromycin, a macrolide abx) works better anyway. NEWS: They've changed from paks to tablets, so docs can order as many tablets as they want now, instead of paks of 3 or 5! Works good on me, anyway. It's a third? generation of erythromycin. I found out b/c I've been sick and got it this week.

I am already up the creek - I'm allergic to Bactrim...
