This website was created to chronicle my experiences and observations, and the experiences and observations of others, with damage received after taking a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. This supposed “safe” class of drugs are given out in hundreds of perscriptions daily around the world. These drugs can have horrific side effects that can disable the most healthy of individuals creating long lasting injuries. These reactions are considered statistically insignificant by drug companies and the FDA, even though their rate of occurence is fairly high. Oftehm the victims do not know what has befallen them, not suspecting that these drugs could be the cause, especially in those individuals who experience reactions years after ingestion. Compounding the problem, the medical community is woefully ignorant to their side effects and the long term damages making the suffering endured by these drugs greatly increased.
Although there is no magic bullet, my hope it to instill hope, through ways of coping through the symptoms of the damage. This is not a research site although speculation where future research maybe helpful could be listed here. If you want to do some in depth research I recomend the Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Research Foundation. It is the definitve scientific site for fluoroquinolone toxicity. I am in no way affilliated with that site but recommend it for research. There are two active discussion forums available for FQ damage on the internet they are the Fluoroquinolone Antibiotic Victim Community Forum and the Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Yahoo Group. If you are new to this plight, please use caution when treading these waters, the information can be overwhelming.
