Can Levoquin And Flomax Lead To Pain In My Achilles Tendons And Neuropathy In Both Legs?
Hi, I recently was hospitalized for a severe prostate infection. I was given large quantities of Levoquin and Flomax IV in the hospital. I immediately developed pain in my achiles tendons and neuropathy in both legs, as well as back pain After the hospital I had continued the Levoquin and flomax in oral form. All problems worsened. The doctor felt after the fact that is was the Levoquin and change the antibiotic to Bactrim, but kept the Flomax. The back pain has lessened but neither pain in the feet or legs has lessened. Could the Flomax be creating these pains? Thanks Mark
no Flomax does not causes this symptom, these all are due to levofloxacin which may even persist for 3-4 months even after the withdrawal of the drug. get it managed by a orthopaedics thanks.
