Guest guest Posted July 1, 2006 Report Posted July 1, 2006 Just wondering if anyone knows the half life of levaquin. My wife is on it for the second time. The first she lasted for about 3 weeks until the achilles pain and other symptoms forced her off the drug. She has since been increasing her magnesium intake to better absorb the drug and when we tried again things didn't go very well. She took one pill and within 6 hours she was hysterical, shooting pains in her feet, fingers, achilles and legs. She stopped taking the drug again and now, 3 days later she is still having the pains. The doc wants her to take half a pill every second day (25% dosage), but I told her to wait until the symptoms abate before taking the levaquin again. Anyone have advice or gone through something similar? How long does the levaquin stay in your system? Thanks for you input. Quote
