I was recently diagnosed with peripheral neuropathy.  They have not been able to figured out why I would have this.  I am not a diabetic.  Sugar levels have always been good. I was reading about the drug Levaquin that can cause this problem.  I went back in my records and found I have had this drug at least 4 times in the last several years.  Do you think that could be the cause?
Hi, Levofloxacin (Joaquin) a fluoroquinolone, has a strong antibacterial property. It is used to treat various bacterial infections (susceptible to it). However, it is unlikely to be the cause for precipitating the peripheral neuropathy. Other than diabetes, nerve trauma, alcohol and toxins and autoimmune conditions can cause this condition. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
