Hi Kimmie,

I'm not sure which are safe, I think most everyone has a differing opinion about this, but this is a link to the one's which aren't good for those on or withdrawing from benzo's.  http://www.benzobuddies.org/forum/index.php?topic=36633.0

From what I’ve read, it’s the class of antibiotics known as fluoroquinolones.  This includes Cipro, Levaquin, Avelox and others.  I’ve seen on here people being “floxed’ meaning damage from fluoroquinolones while on and withdrawing from benzos.  People not on benzos have been damaged by them.  They can wreak havoc on tendons and such.  I believe it causes an uptick in symptoms during benzo tapering/withdrawal.

Hope you feel better soon.

Thank you Pamster.  I'm not sick, just heard about some we who are tapering must avoid and wanted to know in advance. 

SeptGirl,

    Yes, thank you, that is what I heard.  I'll check that out now.  Better be prepared in advance, still have a way to go to get off these benzos.  Better safe than sorry. 

    Thanks so much guys.
