Took levaquin (levofloxacin) for 10 days, sinus infection. afterwards, i feel stuff in back of throat i cough out, but it's clear color, feel ok. still infected?

Doubt it.: without an exam, I can only give general information and with a clearing of color, no fever, chills etc. it goes against infection. On the other hand, inflammation usually lasts for weeks after the infection. Asthma drugs such as monteleukast are usually good for that.
