cipro

Avatar f tn Hi, I can tell you that I had baterial vaginosis last year and only took cipro not the gel and everything was fine.. I've also took cipro for a uti..
Avatar m tn Regarding the urinary tract infection It sounds like the organism causing the problem is getting resistant to the drug Cipro and you may need a new prescription. Also, Cipro may be causing you to throw up. it is possible you have a kidney infection still and it is causing pain that is radiating to the front.
364288 tn?1300144506 Hi girls I had a question about UTI's. I recently just got over a UTI last week. I took a 3 day course of cipro and thought I did great over the weekend. Now I'm feeling like I have to go to the bathroom all the time but I'm not feeling any burning or anything just the urgency to go and having hardly anything come out. What is going on? I thought the cipro would do the trick and get rid of the infection!! Help!!
Avatar f tn Thanks u guys!
Avatar m tn when the doctor put in the indwelling catheter, she already had urine retention for a long time and never had UTI despite she was not using catheters. Plus, she was taking cranberry juice and Cipro since October 2015 to keep dry her foot gangrene, and Cipro has a large field of action, even on UTI. (That day, she also took 5mg Isorbid sublingual tablets) Can she have a UTI in 5-6 days then develop into sepsis then septic shock all in 13 days? Why the Cipro did not act?
Avatar n tn Do cipro cause vaginal discharge and oder and disconfort in my stomach and back and sluggishness? This discussion is related to Discomfort after taking Cipro.
Avatar f tn Does anyone know if cipro will treat a UTI. cause i dont wanna go through all the **** with the doc. i have cipro here but am unsure to take it or not.. help !?
Avatar m tn However, because of the UTI symptoms I was experiencing I had been taking Cipro for a few days before the test. My test was on a Wednesday; from the Sunday to the Tuesday before the test I had taken five tables of Cipro 500mg, with none on Tuesday evening or at all on Wednesday. It had been 24 hours since I had last taken the antibiotic when I gave my urine sample. Given the amount of Cipro I took, the timing, and the nature of the test, can I rely on my negative result?
Avatar f tn For the past 2 weeks, i have had burning when i urinate, and the frequent urge to go often and it feeling like nothing comes out. It feels just like a uti, which i get often. First i took septra, my mom had some extra ones and i was desperate. After 4 days it still wasn't getting better so i went to the doctor. Since i had antibiotics in my system, the urine test came back negative for a uti.
Avatar m tn Also had a UTI(blood in the urine) in late June (11 weeks after) and my doctor prescribed CIPRO and it was cleared in a week. Other than these, I did not have any fever,sore throat, penile sore and penile discharge but always feel lightheaded, fatigue, and weakness in the arms and legs. I have not done any testing so far. My questions: 1)What is my chance of catching anything including STDs and HIV during this few seconds of oral sex? I have read that it is no risk.
Avatar f tn When I had a Kidney Infection (upper UTI) I was on Cipro in my IV for the 4 days I was in the hospital and then I also had to take it twice a day for a week after that. It worked really well and managed to get rid of it. I would definitely bring that up. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!!
Avatar n tn After my period, I kept having the urge to pee even when I went and my uti strip said I had blood in my urine..so my doctor put me on cipro for five days. It seems I'm probably allergic to it and I don't want to take anything else. Would a zpak work for me? I've taken three Benadryls today just to rid of the horrible symptoms. I'm only 18 and pretty fed up with medicines.
Avatar f tn They then said i had a yeast infection from medication. and put me on Cipro, and still had pain.. so then they put me on for a irriated urtheia (sorry my spelling isn't to great) I was on this for 2x a day for 30 days. Again i started to feel better, then a week later.. I had the burning/soreness back and the urologist put me on Cipro again. This has been going on for 8months and now the dr just throws cipro at me.
Avatar n tn I thought I had something else and my doctor found that I had a UTI he perscribed Cipro 500mg twice a day for a week. I seem to be going through some bad reactions. I even thought I had HIV. Skin burrning , itching skin, abnormal amount of acne all over the body. I have recently developed photosensitivity. I was out side next day my face developed a rash. Again I thought i had something else never thought of the cipro.
Avatar m tn on Tuesday and he performed a urine culture and told that I have a UTI and prescribed Cipro. Since I am so nervouse and anxious, I had an STD test (blood, urine) and the results came in today as negative. I still feel a little bruning and discomfort. My question is could I have had a false reading from the STD testing since I was on Cipro for a UTI two days prior to taking the STD test? Please respond quick as Im very nervous.
Avatar n tn My doctor just put me on Cipro for a UTI. I am also on the pill (Ovcon 35). Can the Cipro cause the pill to be less effective? Answer: When a woman is taking oral contraceptives and has to also take antibiotics (such as Cipro) that could decrease the effectiveness of the oral contraceptives, it is recommended that she use a back up method of contraception (i.e. a condom) during the entire time she is on the antibiotics and for 7 days after she stops taking the antibiotics.
Avatar f tn Last week, I was diagnosed with a UTI. I was prescribed 500mg of Cipro and I took it two times a day for five days. On my last day, I noticed that my vaginal discharge had changed colors. It was a very, very, very light brown (tan) color, but I didn't think much of it until it progressively got darker. (I've also had very slight vaginal itching, but it only happens a couple times a day.
Avatar f tn The infection was still there so they gave me five days of Cipro and changed the stomach acid med. The bloodwork and xrays came back normal and they referred me for an ultrasound which who knows how long that will be! (I live in Canada) Now I'm finished the Cipro and still have all the same problems. So my question is: Is it OK to keep taking antibiotics if there not working? Should 2 courses of antibiotics fix an infection?
Avatar n tn is it safe to take 125 mg of cipro each day for 6 months I was prescribed this for a UTI that keeps coming back. Also the pharmacy that filled the prescription gave me 250mg tablets and told me they aren't made in 125mg. and for me to break in half . But the info that comes with the meds says not to break.crush, or chew.
867582 tn?1311627397 I was prescribed Cipro. The urinalysis and abdominal scan were both negative. No UTI and No stone. Within a few days of starting the coarse of Cipro, I felt like I was sitting on a hot plate. I decided to see a urologist and again was tested for infection, all negative. The urologist thought that the burning sensation I had was due to my prostate being congested! He performed what is called Prostate Massage or Prostate milking.
Avatar f tn The only thin gwas my lip will get irritated sting, then chap up and dry out on the lower lip but no sores/blisters gone in like 2 days . Now i have had feelings of a UTI, but taking Cipro in Three day doses and it was gone. I dont know what to think. Because i know the Acid in the urine, if it runs on a sore will cause it to burn, but if a typical out break last up to a week or two and the cipro clears the uti or feeling in three days is there any linkage??? or just a typical uti?
Avatar f tn went to hospital out clinic this morning and very nice MD (they still make them) and he said pus on cells and put me on Cipro and call Friday if not better. Thanks for enouragement guys, you know I hate giving in and going to the docs!
Avatar f tn Major pain. Went to urgent care diagnosed with a UTI. Dr gave Cipro, diflucan and AZO. After 3 days they called to say my culture results showed Cipro wasn't the correct meds. Micro bid was the new med. I've had lower abdomen pain since off and on. Is it not working? Do I have a major case of yeast? I took another diflucan thinking it could be yeast pain. Weird pain.....
378497 tn?1232143585 The weird thing is, I don't have the usual symptoms. I've had UTIs before--one each time I was cathed during childbirth, six years apart (duh). And you can TELL when you've got one, usually, because...well, it hurts, it burns. Well, with these two, I haven't been able to tell much of anything. Only at the end of the first one, when I was actually seeing bright red blood did I know for sure. I'd sort of suspected for some time before that because of frequency/urgency...
Avatar f tn I'm pretty sure i have herpes but haven't been tested. My dr. said I had a UTI and prescribed me antibiotics. Im pretty sure it is caused by HSV, so i started taking Valtrex. Can I take both, antibiotics and antiviral for a UTI. I never did the urine test to determine the exact cause.
Avatar n tn I have been struggling to get over what I thought was a UTI for the past month. (I was given a course of cipro without my Naturopathic Doc doing a urinalysis because I was going out of town the day after my symptoms began). I took the cipro (it was a short dose- 3 days, taken 2 times per day), and started to feel better. Then about a week later symptoms came back, tried to treat it naturally and then decided to try the cipro again.
Avatar n tn I'm a male and recently had unprotected oral sex and a few days later began feel uncomfortable and have had the urge to urinate a lot. The urination itself doesn't hurt, but afterwards there can be a slight stinging sensation. Reading up on symptoms I can either have a UTI or gonorrhea.
Avatar n tn Yes. I'm taking Doxycycline now when he found out that the bacteria was resistant to Cipro. My question isn't whether I have a UTI or not (I trust my doctor). I'm asking if the whole thing with my ejaculation issues sound relevant. He sort of brushed them off when I told him the issue, so I'm asking here.
Avatar f tn felt relief from my symptoms for 2-3 days, then felt a relapse. I have 2 days left on the Cipro. About halfway through my initial treatment of Macrobid, I felt a burning/itching that seemed consistent with a yeast infection, which I'd gotten before because of antibiotic use. I treated with Monostat 1 and symptoms seemed to disappear. Now, at the end of my Cipro treatment, I am feeling these symptoms again. I have not noticed any unusual discharge on my underwear, nor any unusual odor.
