Numbness, Tingling In Fingers. Taking Phentermine, Hydrochlorot, Levofloxacin. Side Effects Of Medication?

Hello, I am on several different meds right now ( Phentermine 37.5mg,hydrochlorot 50mg,endocet 7.5mg, and I took a levofloxacin last night before bed.....well this morning I woke up and my fingers are numb and tingly, could this be a side affect from one of those or an interaction of some kind or did i just lay on them wrong? This has happened in the past when I have nt been on these meds but never in both hands at the same time.

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum. As you describe the numbness and tingling of the fingers it appears to be due to peripheralneuritis, due either to defeciency of b complex, or hypertension , or diabetis, it may be due to cervical spondylosis also.
As it is occuring even when you are not using the medicines also we can say it is not due to drugs or interactions.
I advise you to consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment, you may need to get the tests C.T.scan of the neck, besides other routine tests for confermation.
Besides i advise you to follow some diet recommendations as take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts , fruits, juices and non vegetarian foods to provide body with iron, proteins, and essential elements necessory for building up nervous tissue , blood, and other tissues.
Wishing for a quick recovery and thanks for calling .
