Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in patients with liver disease or jaundice. It can interact with certain medications and cause side effects. Consult your doctor before taking Ciprofloxacin.
Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in children and adolescents, in those with renal impairment (creatinine clearance 30-60 mL/min). Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in patients with a history of upper respiratory tract infection (gastro-intestinal index 30-60 mL/min). Ciprofloxacin can damage the kidneys if taken with other medications such as ketoconazole and itraconazole. You may need to take Ciprofloxacin with or without food for a few days before and after taking this antibiotic. Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if you experience any of these rare side effects: skin rash that may be white or light-colored, itchy, or watery (especially after minor urination), diarrhea that may return within a few days or be bloody (especially with standing or sitting down), sore throat that doesn't go away, cough that doesn't stop, nausea, chest, or abdomen pain that doesn't stop, fever that doesn't improve, or changes in taste (this may be a sign that something is up with Ciprofloxacin or it is not safe for you to take Ciprofloxacin). Ciprofloxacin may also cause dizziness or drowsiness, especially when rising from a sitting or lying position. Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in patients with a history of liver disease or jaundice. Do not drive or do anything that could be dangerous if you experience any of these serious side effects. Before taking Ciprofloxacin, tell your doctor if you have or have ever had liver disease, kidney disease, heart disease, seizures, blood problems (such as anemia, or a history of leukemia), thyroid problems, bleeding disorders, blood disorders, or had a history of blood clots. Also, tell your doctor if you or anyone in your family has a history of fever, chills, rashes, or sore throat. Also, tell your doctor if you or any of your family members have diabetes. Ciprofloxacin may interact with some medicines. Be sure to tell your doctor and pharmacist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products). Before taking Ciprofloxacin, tell your doctor if you are allergic to it, or if you have any other allergies. Ciprofloxacin may cause diarrhea. Diarrhea can occur 3 days after the last dose of Ciprofloxacin. Diarrhea can occur 2 weeks after the last dose of Ciprofloxacin. The risk of diarrhea is greater if the diarrhea is severe and diarrhea is not regular or is bloody (except if it is bloody or bloody with feces). Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding. Ciprofloxacin may harm the fetus. You should not breast-feed while taking Ciprofloxacin, especially if the baby is under 18 years of age. Ciprofloxacin may cause a condition known as anthrax. Call your doctor if you develop symptoms of a severe or bloody diarrhea that doesn't stop, such as fever, rash, hives, or trouble breathing. Tell your doctor if you have ever had anthrax exposure to other drugs or other animals, especially: animals that have been exposed to anthrax, such as foxes, mice, and rats; or animals that have been exposed to certain types of plague.

I have been on this medication for about 4 months now, and I feel great. I have had my lips and tongue removed completely. My lip is so tender that I have a dry spot on my tongue on both sides. I have no sensitivity to it. It is awful!

I had a similar infection for years. When I switched to Cipro from my local pharmacy, I had no change in my symptoms, and they switched me to Cipro. My problem is Cipro is a generic brand drug. It is the same one I was using when I first started Cipro. I have no symptoms. My first antibiotic is Cipro which is the brand name. I am now taking Cipro again and my symptoms have returned. I have no other symptoms, and my infection is gone. I am not seeing a doctor anymore. I am so angry that my doctors are telling me I am not good enough for this.
