Does "Avelox" And "Alinia" Cause Severe Reaction To Sun?
My daughter was just prescribed avelox and alinia for lyme disease. The pharmacist said one causes sensitivity to the sun. Is it avelox and if so does it tend to cause as severe of a reaction to sun as doxycycline does? She had a horrific reaction in the sun to doxy.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand this, such hypersensitivity reaction for the given medicine is very less likely, if still have doubt then it is rule and better to stop the drug because whatever would happens that would draw the attention toward the side effects of this drugs so better to switch over to another drug, hope this information helps you have nice day.
