Does Levofloxacin Cause Internal Bleeding?

I ate a lot of rasberries last night for desert and today had specks of red in my stool with lots of red on the toilet paper and almost no brown stool, should I be concerned? I am an ED scribe so know what GI bleeding looks like and it does not smell that intense like GI bleeds usually do. Also, I am taking Levofloxacin 500 mg daily for sinus infection, would this cause internal bleeding?

drink lots of water for the redness to be flushed out
