Treatment for Fluoroquinolone Patients
Dr. Dennis Woggon BSc, DC
Fluoroquinolone antibiotics are fluoride based. Fluoride is a neurotoxin. Even fluoride toothpaste has warnings on the box.
Fluoroquinolone antibiotics are: ciprofloxacin (Cipro), levofloxacin (Levaquin/Quixin), gatifloxacin (Tequin), moxifloxacin (Avelox), ofloxacin (Ocuflox/Floxin/Floxacin) and norfloxacin (Noroxin).
The side effects of Fluoroquinolone are listed as:
Nervous system symptoms occurred in 91 percent of patients taking fluoroquinolones (pain, tingling and numbness, dizziness, malaise, weakness, headaches, anxiety and panic, loss of memory, and psychosis).
Musculoskeletal symptoms in 73 percent of patients (tendon ruptures, tendonitis, weakness, and joint swelling).
Sensory symptoms in 42 percent of patients (tinnitus, altered visual, olfactory, and auditory function).
Cardiovascular symptoms in 36 percent of patients (tachycardia, shortness of breath, chest pain, and palpitations).
Skin reactions in 29 percent of patients (rashes, hair loss, sweating, and intolerance to heat or cold).
Gastrointestinal symptoms in 18 percent of patients (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain).
The side effects also are: Retinal detachment, which can cause blindness, disruption of collagen synthesis and collagen degradation,6 causing muscle, tendon, cartilage, and/or ligament damage, nausea and diarrhea, acute kidney failure, hallucinations and/or psychotic reactions. (About one-third of patients tend to experience some sort of negative psychiatric effect, such as anxiety, personality changes, or confusion), hearing problems, brain fog, painful rashes, disruptions to blood sugar metabolism, depression, phototoxicity, peripheral neuropathy, seizures, heart damage and acute liver toxicity.
As you can see this is a complicated system failure that can only be addressed with a Team approach.
The nervous system is a major component of the problem. Chiropractic treatment is a part o the solution as it approaches this condition from its neuro-muscular-skeletal components.
New anecdotal research with digital motion x-ray has shown that ligament laxity as well as tendon apoptosis (cellular death) is evident in all patients and until now has been missed and neglected relative to treatment.
Chiropractic spinal rehabilitation is not typical chiropractic treatment.
First, when ligament laxity is present the neck or cervical spine should never be adjusted manually by hand but with a precise adjusting instrument such as the ArthroStim. Ligament laxity is not the same as a strain or sprain but a condition where the ligaments are unstable. X-rays are an objective way to determine spinal misalignment but should also be followed with post x-rays to verify that progress is being made. Digital Motion X-ray (DMX) is another way to evaluate ligament laxity and abnormal function. There should be an extensive examination. The patient should be prescribed specific spinal isometric exercises based on the x-rays to stabile the spine. The patient should be evaluated with spinal stress x-rays to verify correction as humans respond n time and need to their environment. Again, post x-rays must verify positive corrections and a returning to normal alignment. All of this should be accomplished in 6 visits.
It is also important to take a Team approach to this which should include Functional Medicine to avoid inflammatory foods. Physical therapy will help if it is Muscle Activation Therapy (MAT). Microscopic surgery would include injection procedures such as vascular stem cells, arterial PRP, Ozone injections and Prolo treatment to stabilize the unstable areas as determine by digital motion x-ray. A personal trainer who understands spinal biomechanics and stress triggers may be beneficial as well as acupuncture that focuses on the mind as well as the body. Functional medicine is useful for avoiding foods that cause inflammation and limit healing.

Fluoroquinolone syndrome is a difficult condition but with a Team approach there is Hope!
