A member asked:
Started taking norfloxacin and just read possible side effects ( psychosis, neurotoxicity, permanent peripheral neuropathy) i'm concerned, should i be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Quinalone: Quialones are a class of antibiotics that do have SIDE effects. I have been practicing ER 20 years I have seen seizures and Achilles tendon ruptures. I am unaware of anyone with a permanent neuropathy from the medication. Most SIDE effects seen in elderly. For someone your age I would not expect problem.
