Hi,
Yes this could be because of levaquin, especially if your hands have been exposed to sun. You must avoid sun while taking levaquin, because Levquin makes your skin more sensitive that is why you must avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight. In the future if sun exposure is unavoidable, you must wear protective clothing and sunscreen.
But now, you must call your doctor! Those rashes on your hands are a side effect of Levquin followed by sun exposure.
Call your doctor!
