A "bad trip" on Avelox [View All]

[CTyankee]

I hope this hasn't happened to you. This stuff was prescribed to me for treatment of a simple UTI and was a minor disaster. I never have felt so spaced out. Not exactly dizzy but definitely spacey. I had to take extra care to go up and down the stairs. Went to bed at 8 pm, which is early for me.

The next day I read the wrapper of the medicine and shoulda known...it warned about seeing things that aren't there and hearing voices.

The upshot was that I called my doc and got put on amoxicillin. No problem. I have NEVER been allergic to ANY antibiotic.

If you have this med prescribed for you, read the warning BEFORE you take it and have a conversation with your doc...
