I am taking Ciprofloxacin and also take Nyquil zzz to sleep. Is this a safe interaction?
Even if it were, you are on the wrong drug. Ciprofloxacin is totally inactive against syphilis. Stop taking it and see your doctor.
I don't know if I have Trich or not but I was wondering if taking Ciprofloxacin 500mg 2x daily would cure it?
I was prescribed ciprofloxacin for a bladder infection. I have read a ton online about horrible side effects. I figure most people would post these types of stories rather than success stories. What is the truth? How safe should I feel taking this drug? I voiced my concern to my family doctor and he seems to back the drug. I took one pill and feel some slight side effects so far, but nothing extremely serious.

Hi, welcome to the forum, methotrexate is quite an effective drug used in cases of rheumatoid arthritis. The detailed drug interaction with montelukast is not been reported or extensively studied. We take it as no harmful effects reported yet. Yes you can take combination but after consultation from your doctor.
Is it possible for ciprofloxacin to cause vitreous detachment and floaters? I had never noticed floaters previously, but after a 20-day course of ciprofloxacin I now have 4 or 5 floaters across both eyes and have also experienced flashing lights in my eyes when I am in a dark room.

What antibiotic is better to take for a tooth infection/ absess tooth Ciprofloxacin or Bactrim?
If the vet said you should use it then yes, but even when you apply it in the ear it's absorbed and reachs the blood. I'd say wait and ask the vet, maybe just one drop has more drug that your dog can take...just call him on the phone and ask, it's better than spending more money if it happens to be bad for the dog!
Yes
On this forum we try not to second guess health care providers who have the benefit of seeing and examining their patients. That said, ciprofloxacin is frequently used for therapy of food bourne GI tract infections with great success. On the other hand, the drug is not reliably effective for chlamydial infections and the frequency of ciprofloxacin resistant gonorrhea in the US now exceeds 20% making it a poor choice for that process as well.
Hi,
I am on medication for other reasons and doctor prescribed "Proxacin 500 ciprofloxacin" twice a day for 14 days. I investigated about the drug and found that it also cures for gonorrhea and chlamydia spp, urinary tract infections and so many other infections
I was tested for chlamydia trachomatis PCR 2 days after unprotected oral sex and was negative.
After 10 days of an antibiotic (ciprofloxacin) I felt better but the bleeding started again. Am now back on 10 more days of same antibiotic but this time am having lower pelvic pain amd discomfort. Could this be something other than a UTI? Urine culture showed a bacterial infection. Is it common for this to take 1 or 2 courses of antibiotics to clear up?
The following drugs were prescribed the for me Ciprofloxacin. After using the drug for some days, the burning sensation stopped and the red swollen vanished. I continued to use the drugs until I comleted the dosage.
Despite that the burning sensation and the red swelling vanished, I still have the thick white discharge from the tip of my penis till date.
It is three months now and I still have this complaint. Please what is my fate? How do I get rid of this gonorrhea?
Please help.
Klebsiella pnenmoniae and Streptoccous agalactia were found present on my penile head. Then doctor prescribed Ciprofloxacin 500 mg tablets, 2 times daily for 7 days.
However the Ciprofloxacin could not work and the Balanitis still persists. I am still applying the “Uni-Mizole-HC” cream to stop the inflammation on my penile head.
May I ask you a few questions about my Balanitis,
1. What do you think is the cause of my Balanitis ? Antibiotic and anti-fugal drugs seem do not work to relieve.
