Suggest Treatment For Recurrent Flu And Sinus Infection
I ve been experiencing flu like symptoms off and on for about 2 1/2 weeks. I ve taken a round of Levaquin because of a sinus infection. My allergies are on overdrive. I ve not been able to see my family dr due to work. I just looked up the side effects of my new blood pressure medicine. Diltiazem, 300mg in the a.m and 180mg at night. I realize that I have many of the listed side effects.
If you are experiencing side effects of the medication, then you need to speak to your doctor to inform him or her and the medication would need to be altered.
A different medication, that you would be able to tolerate, can be started instead.
If your symptoms continue despite discontinuation of the medication, then you know that there is another cause.
I hope this helps
