I am having severe insomnia after starting this drug. No sleep at all! Can it be combined with sleeping aids?
Levofloxacin - Can I take sleeping pills to combat insomnia from this drug?

Hi, your doctor should be able to prescribe you a short course of Zopiclone (for example) while you are taking the Levofloxacin

Hi Travel-
Your question is best answered by your doctor. Best to call your doctor and tell him about your insomnia. It is not wise to take OTC sleeping aid unless approved by your doctor.
Hope you can get some Zzzzzzs. :)
