Levaquin settlements are monetary awards granted to those who have sustained severe injuries after taking the fluoroquinolone antibiotic known as Levaquin (generically, levofloxacin). Levaquin is prescribed to treat a variety of serious bacterial infections. It is available in the form of a pill, oral solution or injectable medication.

Levaquin has been reported to cause a number of severe (or even potentially fatal) complications, including:

• Damage to the liver, kidneys and/or pancreas
• Double vision
• Fatal hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)
• Heart problems, including arrhythmia and/or cardiotoxicity
• Muscle deterioration and neuromuscular diseases
• Nerve damage in the hands and/or feet
• Permanent loss of vision and/or loss of color vision
• Severe allergic reaction
• Severe anemia
• Severe central nervous system (CSN) disorders
• Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrosis (TEN), life-threatening skin conditions
• Tendon injuries, including spontaneous tendon rupture and tendinitis.

Patients who develop one or more of the listed conditions may be eligible to seek a settlement by filing a Levaquin lawsuit.

Levaquin Settlement Amounts

The amount of a given Levaquin settlement will depend on:

• The nature and severity of a Levaquin patient's injuries
• The cost of medical bills and ongoing treatments
• Whether the patient has sustained permanent disability

Typically, larger settlement awards are granted to those who have sustained the most severe Levaquin injuries and to families of deceased Levaquin patients.
