Levaquin Associated with Panic Attacks
from:
Although medicines do treat illnesses, however, they can also cause another illness as part of the medications complications or side effects. It sounds ironic but it’s true. You may not know the logic behind this, but medically inclined people do.
Levaquin, for instance, is supposed to treat different bacterial infections. It belongs to a group of antibiotics that are often prescribed by doctors as treatment for infectious diseases cause by bacteria. This medicine is available in both tablet and by injection. Its effectiveness is also approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
However, like any other type of medication, it also has corresponding side effects, particularly if it isn’t taken properly. Aside from causing abdominal pain, it can also result in nausea, headache and slight changes in the taste buds and, in the worst cases, it can result in intense anxiety disorder, such as panic attack and insomnia.
Usually, if it combined with other therapies and medications, it can also lead to greater complications and side effects. Patients should always be aware of this medicine because it can cause many side effect that will affect your digestive and nervous systems.
Sometimes, the side effects of Levaquin are caused by a failure to follow the prescription of doctors. Typically, a patient will be required to take each dose of Levaquin with 8 ounces of water. If you fail to do so, it can cause the formation of Levaquin crystals that can affect your body systems.
A patient should always tell their doctor about his or her health background because there are limitations set for people with unstable health condition. It’s not advisable for anyone with a slow heart rate and anxiety attacks. If you need this kind of medicine, your doctor will either prescribe you a dosage adjustment or with other medicines.
If you overdose with Levaquin, it can increase the possibility of being affected by panic attacks. There’s a certain ingredient in this medicine that develops anxiety in your system. You become more nervous and your heart palpitation also increases. Over time you’ll notice that while your bacterial infection is cured, your panic disorder worsens.
It’s also not desirable if you miss a dose of Levaquin. This is because it can reduce the effectiveness of the medicine. It won’t cure the bacterial infections that attack your body but it will increase the immunity of the bacteria to the medicine. Therefore, it’s better if you only follow the doctor’s prescription.
If in case you experience one of these side effects when taking Levaquin, seek your doctor’s advice immediately. Panic attack disorder can also be paired with several related symptoms of anxiety.
Testimonies coming from the patients who’ve become a victim of panic attack due to the side effects of Levaquin have also increased. This has caused alarm at the Food and Drug Administration.
Levaquin can also result in numbness and tingling in your ears, especially if you’ve been taking it for more than a month. After this, people may experience panic attack for no particular reason.
If this happens to you, you should immediately consult your nearest doctor. Always remember that there’s no need for you to worry about bacterial infection because the doctor can prescribe an alternative dosage of medicine for your problem.
