Hi, can i use prednisone after i used ic ciprofloxacin hcl 500 mg for 10 days? ## My findings state that there are potentially unsafe interactions between these two drugs. So as long as you're not taking the two drugs together, then in my opinion you should be fine. Quoted below are the precautions you should be aware of: "Using ciprofloxacin together with prednisone can increase the risk of tendinitis and tendon rupture. This may be more likely to occur in older adults over 60 years of age or those who have received a kidney, heart, and/or lung transplant. Tendon rupture can occur during or up to several months after finishing ciprofloxacin treatment and may require surgery or result in prolonged disability. Talk with your doctor before using these medications together. Stop ta...

if I cut ciprofloxacin 500 in half will it be the same as taking a 250 mg pill because 500 is too strong for me and I am ok with the lower dose. ## You should take the dosage prescribed by your doctor. Why do you feel it is too strong for you? Some severe infections require a higher dosage. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

Is ciprofloxacin available over the counter in Mexico? It's my antibiotic of choice for my semi-frequent UTIs, and I would like to start keeping a small stock on hand so that I don't have to take it to the gyno every single time. I know someone out there knows what I'm talking about. Thanks. ## I am in the same boat as you and I just ordered a Cipro online. It came from India and I'm trying to find out if it is the same as what the doctor prescribes. it is orange in color not white. But an answer to your question yes I am sure they carry them in Mexico so stock up because I understand what a pain it is to have to go to the doctor every time :) good luck

have a sinus infection ## can I eat dairy prodicts with this med ## Sinus infections are actually rarely caused by bacterial infections and therefore taking antibiotics for most sinus infections is 'not indicated' since antibiotics are only indicated for bacterial infections. In addition, Cipro has a rare but serious possibility of causing a severe condition known as Cipro Tendonitis. Again, while it's rare, it can lead to lifelong disability! Since sinus infections are rarely caused by bacteria, that would be awful to have become disabled after taking a drug that you didn't even need in the first place, wouldn't it? You may want to speak to your doctor about the need for this drug.

Interaction with IC Sucralfate 1 GM and what foods to avoid. The Ciprofloxacin was prescribed for a prostate and/or bladder infection ## The Sucralfate can affect the absorption of the Ciprofloxacin, making it less effective, so you do need to be careful to take the Ciprofloxacin, at least 6 hours after you take the Sucralfate. The Ciprofloxacin may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more: Dairy products can also affect the absorption of it, so they should be avoided within 2 hours of taking the antibiotic. Are there any other questions?

Does anyone know anything about these?

What does it mean if you have mental changes while on cipro? Why does this happen? Could this indicate I have a mental problem? I had the same problem with predazon. Except when I woke up my face was red and puffy. They think I have a allergy to predazone. Any way just concerned that this has happened with two medicines. So far no other side effects from the cipro. Just the mental changes. It's getting better as I let it leave my system. ## No, this doesn't necessarily mean you have a mental problem, it means the medication is having an odd effect on your body. Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic and while they can list information on the most common side effects that you may experience, such as: nausea, dizziness, skin rash and diarrhea, there is no way of knowing the specific effec...
