One culprit that is often overlooked in chronic Fluoroquinolone toxicity is small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, or SIBO.

A simple three step action that logically links FQ’s to the ability to initiate delayed adverse “late effect” reactions. There are no grand leaps of faith or conjecture required to link the steps.
Unfortunately, and more often than not, I have seen a cash strapped floxies pay out $1000 or more in consulting fees and walk away no healthier than they were when they started out and many times more frustrated, confused, and definitely lighter in the pocketbook.
