Description: As beneficial as antibiotics are, there is a widely prescribed family of antibiotics that is highly destructive. Called fluoroquinolones, better known under the names Cipro and Levaquin, these drugs can cause serious, sometimes long term and permanent injuries. Cohen shows that the side effects of these drugs are being dismissed and essentially hidden from public view.He explains how antibiotics work, how they injure, and suggest alternatives that can help people potentially reduce their pain reduction, clear up persistent antibiotic-based health issues, and just as important, give them hope. -- adapted from back cover.
