Posted by admin

To treat infections of the skin, lungs, airways, bones, and joints caused by susceptible bacteria is used Ciprofloxacin. It is also used to treat urinary infections caused by bacteria, effective in treating infectious diarrheas caused by, campylobacter jejuni, and shigella bacteria. Cipro administered together with theophylline can lead to elevated blood levels of theophylline. Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in patients with central nervous system diseases such as seizures, because rare seizures have been reported in patients receiving this medication. Ciprofloxacin should be avoided in children and adolescents under 18 years old, as safe use in these patients have not been established.
