Just curious, did the doctor prescribe Levaquin? The one you were allergic to?
That's the one. So what have you heard?

I work in a pharmacy, so basically the same thing as your uncle. It really is the best antibiotic for bronchitis.. BUT if you are allergic to it the reactions are usually quite severe. Pretty difficult for doctors to know if patients are allergic to it too, because it is so new and there aren't many drugs in the same class. And I bet that copay wasn't cheap huh?

First off, hope you feel better soon, Steve.

For me, Levaquin is the only antibiotic that will knock out severe bronchitis for me, and I have tried them all. Erythromycin is a placebo, penicillin is a sugar pill and the Zpak are worthless for me. It's too bad Steve had an allergy to the drug, because for me it is the only one that works.

I agree with you, Dave! I take a shark liver oil supplement 2X/day and am rarely sick, now! Keep those supplements going!

Levaquin is a total BAMF, as long as you're not allergic to it
