Brief Answer:
Drug interactions possible

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. Levaquin (levofloxacin) and Diflucan (fluconazole) when taken together can lead to certain arrythmias (dangerous abnormal heart rhythm) in certain individuals. Please discuss with your treating physician whether it would be fine for you.

Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
