Avatar n tn Most uncomplicated UTIs can be treated with oral antibiotics such as trimethoprim, cephalosporins, nitrofurantoin, or a fluoroquinolone (e.g., ciprofloxacin or levofloxacin). Trimethoprim is probably the most widely used antibiotic for UTIs and is usually taken for 7 days. It is often recommended that trimethoprim be taken at night to ensure maximal urinary concentrations and increase its effectiveness.

Avatar f tn I started 100 mg doxycycline (big mistake) without taking any test. I then visited my go who put me on one week 250 my levofloxacin and pyridium. The pain did not go away. I visited. A urologist who conducted two rounds of blood and urine test- no infection. A week after doxy dosage I took a std test for gonorrhoea chlamydia and ureaplasma. All negative. I was worried about herpes all along and Borge the urologist and venrealogist said unlikely.
Avatar n tn Careful with Levofloxacin. Sometimes the side effects aren't worth the benefits. I took Levofloxacin to cure a bout of pneumonia. Sure enough, the infection cleared up, but my joints ached so bad I could not raise my arms to take a shower, put my clothes on, bend to tie my shoes, get in and out of a car quickly. Strength training and jogging was out of the question for a month.
Avatar n tn Is 500 mg of Levofloxacin every 48 hours suppose to make a 70 year old diabetic dialysis patient drowsy, fatigued, emotionally disturbed, and delirious? Is it okay to stop the continuing dosage after seeing the affects of the first dose?
Avatar n tn these include Azithromycin 1 g single dose, or doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for 7 days, or levofloxacin 500 mg once daily for 7 days, etc. All these regimens are administered orally.

Do keep us posted on your doubts.
Avatar m tn I live on a small tropical island in the Caribbean. I drink more alcohol than I should, approximately 3 glasses of wine each night. I stay away from food and drinks with sugar other than wine typically. Six months ago, I noticed that I was urinating more often and when I had to go, I felt an urgency to go. Previously I was told that I had a somewhat enlarged prostate at about 4 centimeters and figured that may have been it or an infection and thought that would pass.
Avatar m tn If Levofloxacin caused peripherial neuropathy will Cipro also if I take that as an alternate?
Avatar m tn Roughly a year ago I slept with a woman (which I regretted immediately) unprotected. Alcohol was involved and she mentioned that, with tubes tied, a condom was unnecessary, and I bought it, sadly. I do recall after the encounter that she had vaginitis, through sufficient amounts of white threads which I can only assume were bacteria on my genitals afterwards. I was later diagnosed with Chlamydia, and treated, and everything was fine for a short time.

Avatar m tn I now understand that levofloxacin can cure E. I thought it had to cure C or G, which would in turn cure my E. But it seems, though I'd like someone to confirm it if you have any knowledge, that levofloxacin directly cures E. New question: Epididymitis was cured by levofloxacin in 2 days but why and what caused my E in the first place? Theory: Maybe my scrotum skin was weak during sex and it got infected during the sex process, but not by any STD.

1423392 tn?1286590390 t mix well with alcohol, so just give up all alcohol for the duration of treatment. Small price to pay. And that include no wine, no beer, no champagne, nothing with alcohol. *Nothing.* I have read where some people say 'Oh I didn't think just a glass of WINE would make any difference!' I don't understand that way of thinking. What's more important, having some Chardonnay or getting well? Easy answer!

Avatar f tn I went back to the doctor and he gave me levofloxacin for tonsillitis but my throat is still sore on the 8th day on levofloxacin.

I did smoke blunts for that time in september but I've stopped smoking weed for about a month now, and everytime i would smoke weed i would get itchy.

Today is the second day of my course and the burning sensation while urinating has reduced from before but the eyes still stay red throughout the day.
Avatar f tn night sweats. My doctor diagnosed me with pneumonia and prescribed levofloxacin. Levofloxacin was taken from 02/24 to 03/02. I was supposed to be ovulating from 02/23 to 03/01, peak time being around the 28th. My period was due on 03/14 and it still has not arrived. I have taken two pregnancy tests which came out negative.
