Levaquin Lawsuit
Attorney for Tendon Rupture

Contact our law firm regarding cases involving Levaquin (levofloxacin), a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. According to the FDA, use of Levaquin may lead to spontaneous tendon rupture. Achilles tendons and shoulder and hand tendons have ruptured after use of fluoroquinolone antibiotics, according to the FDA. Our lawyers are representing Levaquin victims who suffered a ruptured tendon.

Levaquin (levofloxacin) is an antibiotic in the class known as “fluoroquinolones” that is used to treat bacterial infections, including pneumonia, chronic bronchitis, sinus, urinary tract, kidney, and skin infections. Levaquin® is a registered trademark of Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical, Inc.

Patients who have had tendon ruptures after using Levaquin have experienced severe pain and suffering and lessened mobility. These people are victims. If you are a Levaquin victim, you deserve compensation.

Remembering SmellAfter only one use of a Zicam Cold Remedy product, Bonnie Blodgett lost her sense of smell. A gradening writer and foodie, her life was drastically changed. She recently published Remembering Smell: A Memoir of Losing--and Discovering--the Primal Sense in which she chronicals her experience with losing her sense of smell and then slowly getting it back again.

Bonnie's experience with Zicam is similar to many of our other clients. They experienced a burning sensation during the first use of a Zicam product and then lost their sense of smell (anosmia). Most of them were not as fortunate as Bonnie and have not regained their sense of smell.
