What should one do if they should get levaquin (levofloxacin) tendinitis? what are the steps one should take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop medication: If there is a concern about the Levaquin (levofloxacin) causing the tendinitis, stopping the medication needs to be done first. If the tendinitis is due to the medication, a possible but infrequent side effect, your symptoms should improve over 3-10 days. If symptoms do not improve, see your physician for evaluation of other potential causes of the tendinitis.
