Levaquin is a potent medication with a high profile of side effects, including liver problems, hepatitis, muscular/tendon, neuropathy and aortic ruptures/tears. Because of this they carry the FDA's most serious warning, a black box warning. If you are on this medication, your Dr determined that the risk profile was balanced by your infection. DO NOT take chances by adding other compounds, esp Weed
