Uses
Ciplox (Ciprofloxacin) is a type of fluoroquinolone antibiotic which is effective against a broad range of bacteria and is considered an effective treatment against various different bacterial infections. In addition to this, it may be given as a preventative measure to patients who have been exposed to anthrax germs. Despite being considered effective against bacterial infections, this medicine will not work at all for treating viral infections, and should not be used for this purpose.
Dosage and Administration
Ciplox (Ciprofloxacin) comes as tablets, which are to be taken by mouth. Prior to the commencement of treatment, it is necessary to consult a doctor so that the correct dosage can be prescribed. Adult patients treating bacterial infections are generally told to take it twice per day, with one dose taken in the morning and another in the evening. In order for this medication to be effective, it is essential to continue treatment until the full prescribed amount has been taken. Failure to do so could result in a return of symptoms.
Side effects
Ciplox (Ciprofloxacin) may cause some patients who take it to experience side effects, such as:
Remember to tell your doctor about any side effects that occur. Other serious side effects which require immediate medical attention may occur. Immediately consult your doctor if you notice muscle pain, severe fatigue, appetite loss, seizures, changes in mood or any other reactions.
Precautions
If you or any of your family members has or has a history of heart problems, or if you have ever suffered from low potassium levels, nerve problems, cerebral arteriosclerosis, seizures or diseases affecting the liver, it is essential to tell your doctor.
In some patients, especially those over 60, there is an increased risk of tendon damage associated with taking this medicine. Ask your doctor if you are concerned about this.
Seek immediate emergency medical attention if you suffer an allergic reaction. Symptoms to watch for, which may be indicative of a reaction, include skin rashes, hives, swelling of the face or limbs, trouble breathing, and trouble swallowing.
Always use Ciplox (Ciprofloxacin) as you have been prescribed by your doctor. Never self-medicate or change your dosage without first consulting your doctor. The correct dosage can vary depending on your health, medical history, and the severity of the condition being treated.
This medication may not be safe for all patients. Before you begin using it always disclose the following to your doctor:
