A member asked:

Why is levaquin (levofloxacin) so bad for people with diabetes, warfarin and nerve pain? i'm all 3.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not absolute: I do not believe that there is absolute contraindication of Levaquin (levofloxacin) in your condition. However discuss with your prescriber if there is any relative contraindication in your case.
