AVELOX report #SELF-3451
Female patient reported the following AVELOX side effect(s):NO SIDE EFFECTS! Too many websites indicate ALL the side effects of Avelox. I was scared to death to take it! Really scared! I took for 2 days - NO SIDE EFFECTS! NONE! It cured me in 24 hours - I had been DEATHLY ill for over 2 weeks.
If ANYTHING - I was \"a little\" hyper. Just stay away from taking at night (so you can sleep), and don\'t drink extra caffeine...maybe don\'t drink any caffeine while on this?
