CIPROFLOXACIN

Ciprofloxacin used to treat serious infections, or infections when other anitbiotics have not worked to avoid the development of ciprofloxacin-resistant bacteria.
Ciprofloxacin is used to treat infections caused by susceptible bacteria including: Upper and lower urinary tract infections; Chancroid, prostatitis; Infections of the bones and joints, severe sinusitis; Anthrax; Endocarditis caused by HACEK Organisms, infectious diarrhea (Salmonella, Shigella, travellers’ diarrhoea), cholera, gonorrhea, intra-abdominal infections, lower respiratory tract infections, typhoid.
Ciprofloxacin can be used for skin or skin structure infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, although the fluoroquinolone class is also strongly active against Gram-positive bacteria.
Uncomplicated urinary tract infections: Because fluoroquinolones have been associated with serious adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions] and for some patients acute uncomplicated cystitis is self-limiting, reserve Ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute uncomplicated cystitis in patients who have no alternative treatment options.
Acute exacerbation of chronic bronchitis: Because fluoroquinolones have been associated with serious adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions] and for some patients acute sinusitis is self-limiting, reserve Ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute exacerbations of chronic bronchitis in patients who have no alternative treatment options.
Acute Sinusitis: Because fluoroquinolones have been associated with serious adverse reactions [see Warnings and Precautions] and for some patients acute sinusitis is self-limiting, reserve Ciprofloxacin for treatment of acute sinusitis in patients who have no alternative treatment options.
