You're not being very specific. What is the expected waveform? What does the actual waveform look like?

Harmonic content per se is not a bad thing. If you drive LEDs with a rectangular pulsed current, you will have lots of harmonics but high efficiency.

Apart from that, harmonics can be suppressed by a simple low pass filter.
