Cipro (ciprofloxacin)
Indications
Cipro is an antibiotic medicine that fights bacteria and is used to treat different infections in adults and children. Here are some common:
- Skin and Skin Structure Infections
- Bone and Joint Infections
- Complicated Intra-Abdominal Infections
- Infectious Diarrhea
- Typhoid Fever (Enteric Fever)
- Uncomplicated Cervical and Urethral Gonorrhea
- Inhalational Anthrax post-exposure
- Plague
- Chronic Bacterial Prostatitis
- Lower Respiratory Tract Infections (e.g., Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Bronchitis)
- Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs), including Acute Uncomplicated Cystitis and Complicated UTIs and Pyelonephritis
Dosage and Administration
- Take Cipro exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
- Take Cipro tablets in the morning and evening at the same times each day.
- Swallow the tablet whole; do not split, crush, or chew it. Inform your healthcare provider if you cannot swallow the tablet whole.
- Drink plenty of fluids while taking Cipro.
- Do not take Cipro with dairy products (like milk or yogurt) or calcium-fortified juices alone. However, you can take it with a meal that contains these products.
Mechanism of Action
Cipro works by stopping two important enzymes that bacteria need to make and repair their DNA. Without these enzymes, the bacteria can’t grow or fix themselves, so they die, and the infection gets better.
Contraindications
- Known allergy to Ciprofloxacin or other similar antibiotics.
- Do not take Cipro if you are also taking tizanidine.

Precautions
- Allergic Reactions: Serious and sometimes life-threatening reactions, like severe allergic reactions, can happen after the first or later doses. Stop taking Cipro right away if you get a skin rash, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or any signs of an allergic reaction.
- Liver Problems: Stop taking Cipro immediately if you notice symptoms of liver problems, such as yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, or severe fatigue.
- Severe Diarrhea: If you get severe diarrhea, check with your doctor, as it could be a sign of a serious infection.
