Levaquin Side Effect Lawsuit

Levaquin, a popular antibiotic, recently received a black box warning by the FDA due to the serious side effects it causes. A black box warning is the strongest warning the FDA can issue without completely taking a drug off the market.

Levaquin was “black boxed” due to the serious side effects it has been known to cause. These side effects include tendinitis, tendon rupture, and a number of other tendon related injuries. Levaquin has also been linked to other serious life altering side effects.

Those who have suffered Levaquin injuries often must undergo additional surgery, rehabilitation, and may not ever regain complete use of their joints/tendons again. Due to the severity of these injuries, there is currently several law suits pending against the makers of Levaquin.
