Cute mouse story! Let's hope he gets outta there alive! Just checking in...Priscilla's coming through Charleston this weekend, and I was just thinking about all of us crammed in our room at last year's RWA conference. And of course, your SHOE photos came to mind, too. I vow this year I'll not have to put Band-aids on all my toes!! Hope to see you in D.C. Hugs, Kieran :>) Hey, Esri!

Yeah, it wasn't until I got the drug home and was carefully going through the patient info that I started to get freaked out. And you like my books, too. (squee!) Thanks again!

All of the articles on Wikipedia concerning this class are being rewritten to reflect this information. Additionally levaquin is involved in a Multi District Class Action litigation regarding these adverse reactions. It appears that the manufacturers were well aware of how toxic this drug is and hid this from the public, the FDA as well as the treating physicians. Recently Johnson and Johnson discontinued Floxin, which is the predessor to Levaquin. This is not the case of a few greedy lawyers pursuing frivolous lawsuits, but a serious threat to the public health as most of these reactions are irreversible and result in lifetime disabilties. Additionally Public Citizen had to sue the FDA in Federal Court to add Black Box Warnings to all the drugs in this class and in Europe their use has been severely restricted.

Visit the National Library of Medicine's people-friendly website (they have a different one, which requires a subscription, for medical professionals) at www.medlineplus .gov (take out the space) any time you have a question - BEFORE you shell out the money for any test or medicine. They will provide the information that's on those patient inserts so you can make an informed choice. Please feel free to email me directly if you have questions about how it works.
