Dear Doctor, just before few days my grandfather foley catheter was removed and he was feeling burning effect while urinating so doctor advised him to take levofloxacin 750 mg tablet namely l-cin 750 for 5 days along with alkasol. During course of medication he was not having any problem but just 1 day after stopping L-Cin 750 he is facing difficulty in urination. What should he do now. Should he use medicine for next few more days.

Health Query

I had left pleural effusion and I am on ATT (rcinex, pz 1500, ethambutol 1200) for 1.5 month. On the start of treatment due to liver problem rifampicin was stopped for a week and levofloxacin 500 was added and after 1 week rifampicin 450 (earlier 600) started again and after that I am normal but doctor tried to introduce rifampicin 600 (as my weight is 67 kg) but whenever I took rifampicin 600 I feel very weak and my head, palm ,ears get heated and I feel hot so I reverted to rifampicin 450 (attempted 3 times). Sir is this dose of rifampicin sufficient and is there any chance of getting MDR tb due to low dose (I never skipped a single dose. Rcinex 450/300, pz 1500, combutol 1200, levofloxacin 500)

Hello, the other day I had to go to the emergency room because I was having severe twitching/spasms all over my body, was unable to concentrate and was losing balance (even when I was only sitting), my heart felt as if it was going really quickly and my chest felt right and I was unable to really think and felt like I was about to pass out. As I was shaking I could only describe how I was feeling as 'spacey' as if I was about to faint or be physically sick and not really with it' I also had a some very crazy and verging on hallucinagenic dreams in the time I was trying to sleep before this happened. I was in a foreign country at the time so it was difficult to communicate and the standard of healthcare is not perceived as being too great. This happened hours after my second dosage of prescribed meptin, levofloxacin and broncolidator (i had been prescribed this a few days earlier for a chest infection bronchitis). Other medicine I had been taking included finasteride (for hair loss) and fluoxetine (for anxiety - although had stopped using this about a week or so before hand). The doctors gave me a ct scan, and a number of other tests when I arrived at the emergency room and after a number of hours the symptoms lessened and I was starting to feel better although I still don't feel great. They told me it was probably an allergic reaction to levofloxacin and meptin so I should stop taking that and use amoxicillin for the chest infection. I am grateful for the care I received and for their diagnosis but as it felt very serious and was very scary (particularly for my girlfriend who was with me) i'd like to kindly seek some input on whether the diagnosis sounds correct or whether it could have been something else. Thank you all for any help - I really appreciate it.

The diagnosis is almost correct. It can be a reaction of one of the medicine. Which one is difficult to decide.
My suggestion is to take homoeopathic treatment which has minimum medicine and no side effects.
