Ive been taking levaquin for an infection and this morning i had really dark urine and when i drank alot of water afterwards my lower back left and right side im guessing my kidneys started itching and a rash developed but went away but I can still feel it tingle. What does this mean and should I stop taking the levaquin?

Dark urine and rash are side effects of Levaquin that you need to call your doctor about. You could be having a reaction that is causing your kidneys to fail. Please call him immediately.
Best of luck!

idk. i would suggest u try drinking lighter liuids like apple juice and chanpaigne, not grape juice or red wine. whatever u do, dont puncture ur kidney. that would be REALLY bad… hope this helps!
