Cipro (ciprofloxacin) is a broad-spectrum antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections in adults and children. Ciprofloxacin belongs to a class of drugs known as fluoroquinolones. Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic, but in recent years, it has become more common in the United States, where it is prescribed for urinary tract infections, gonorrhea, and anthrax. Ciprofloxacin is commonly prescribed for acne, bacterial vaginosis, and other bacterial infections. It has been used to treat many different types of infections, such as:
In addition to treating infections caused by bacteria and viruses, ciprofloxacin also treats certain parasites, including those that are transmitted through contact with a person’s urine or blood. Ciprofloxacin is also used to treat respiratory infections, including pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, and tonsillitis.
Ciprofloxacin is commonly used in the treatment of acne, bacterial vaginosis, gonorrhea, and other bacterial infections. In addition to treating acne, ciprofloxacin also treats infections caused by viruses, including those that are transmitted through exposure to viruses. Ciprofloxacin is also used to treat certain infections caused by bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics.
Ciprofloxacin tablets are available in both oral and intravenous forms. The usual dosage of ciprofloxacin for acne treatment is 500 mg orally twice daily for five days, followed by a single dose of 200 mg once daily for seven days.
In addition to the recommended dosage, the oral form of ciprofloxacin should be used cautiously in children and elderly patients. Ciprofloxacin is not recommended for children under the age of 18 years, and for patients with a low white blood cell count. Ciprofloxacin is available as oral suspension, and can be taken with or without food.
Ciprofloxacin tablets are available in strengths ranging from 2.5 mg to 10 mg. The recommended dose for adults is 500 mg twice daily for five days, followed by a single dose of 200 mg once daily for seven days.
Ciprofloxacin is generally well tolerated and is generally well-tolerated. Common side effects include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. Less common side effects may include nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Less serious side effects are rare but can occur. In some cases, ciprofloxacin can cause liver damage, as can in the case of aminoglycoside-resistant infections.
Ciprofloxacin may cause severe allergic reactions, including hives, swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing, and fainting.
Treatment of bacterial infections of the lungs, nose, ear, bones and joints, skin and soft tissue, kidney, bladder, abdomen, and genitals caused by ciprofloxacin-susceptible organisms. Infections may include urinary tract infection, prostatitis, lower respiratory tract infection, otitis media (middle ear infection), sinusitis, skin, bone and joint infections, infectious diarrhea, typhoid fever, and gonorrhea.
May be taken with or without food. May be taken w/ meals to minimise GI discomfort. Do not take w/ antacids, Fe or dairy products.

Toxins reduce efficacy of an antiprotozoal therapy by antagonizing bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. Toxins may also inhibit efficacy of bacterial products. Toxins may increase levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), resulting in increased heart rate, oligoclonal bands, myoclonal bands, and myoclonus. Toxins may increase levels of nitric oxide, resulting in increased heart rate, increased blood pressure, increased blood urea and increased liver enzyme levels. Toxins may alter levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), resulting in increased heart rate, increased oligoclonal bands, myoclonal bands, and myoclonus. Toxins may enhance effects of bacterial products, including levels of cGMP. cGMP may reduce efficacy of an antiprotozoal therapy by affecting DNA topoisomerase IV. Toxins may also increase levels of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), resulting in increased heart rate, increased oligoclonal bands, myoclonus, and myoclonus. cGMP levels may decrease with use of antibiotics. Toxins may enhance effects of bacterial products, such as levels of cGMP. cGMP may increase with use of antibiotics. Bacterial products may antagonise bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV.
Infections may include urinary tract infection, prostatitis, lower respiratory tract infection, urethral and sinusitis, infectious diarrhea, typhoid fever, and gonorrhea. The above includes other uses as well.
The combination of Ciprofloxacin and Tinidazole is indicated for the management of a wide variety of infections caused by susceptible gram-positive and gram-negative organisms along with anaerobes and protozoa.
Ciprofloxacin: Antibiotics (Quinolone antibiotics)
Tinidazole : Antiprotozoals
Ciprofloxacin + Tinidazole effectively manages infection, where ciprofloxacin works by killing bacteria that cause infections. It only works with specific strains of bacteria. Tinidazole works by killing the parasites and anaerobic bacteria that are responsible for causing infections by damaging their DNA.
