Unfortunately, the listing for Levaquin does not include information about the very real possibility of tendon damage from Levaquin.

There are MANY studies showing that sinus infections are rarely due to a bacterial infection and therefore in most cases, antibiotics are NOT indicated.

While the chance of Levaquin Tendonitis and Cipro Tendonitis is small with these drugs, the damaging effects can be lifelong and disabling. Every single person that I have spoken to who has been damaged by these drugs told me If I'd have only known what it could do, I would have never taken it.

Well, now you know.
