Are you aware of the devastating side effects of floroquinolones, levaquin, cipro, (ciprofloxacin) etc. why aren't patients warned of this?

Quinolones: I'm not sure what you mean by "the devastating side effects of fluoroquinolones". I have prescribed many, many, many doses myself to children and adolescents and they are overall safe. It is known that they can cause a reversible arthropathy and it is also known, and warned about every time I prescribe it, that they can cause tendonitis and tendon rupture rarely. Your doctor should mention this.
