Any success stories with Levofloxacin? Just started on it.

I’ve read that it’s got a pretty good success rate, can anyone vouch for this? Just finished Amoxillin for a week (mild improvement) but now going on to Levo for 2 weeks (500mg x2) per day.

We noticed you posted about a floroquinolone class antibiotic. Please be aware that this class of dugs has several back box FDA warnings, and is only meant to be used when a pathogen has been clearly identified in the prostate; They are not to be used indiscriminately for cases of non-bacterial prostatitis (consensus agreement ~95% of cases).
