Macrobid (nitrofurantoin) is not a fluoroquinolone:
Nitrofurantoin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fluoroquinolones have a fluoride in them.
This is a listing of them:

Only a few are available in the US.
The chemical structure of fluoroquinolones is much different from nitrofurantoin (Macrobid)
However statins are far more destructive.

There are more videos on YouTube yearly about statins, as the patents expire on them.
