I've found many drugs make me sicker than what they are supposed to fix. Which sucks if you are sick to begin with. Hubs just finished up a small amount of steroids for an inflammation. The side-effects were so bad, he said he would never take them again.

I took a few Avelox once (equivalent of Cipro) for an ear infection once. Within an hour of taking it, I would be out for the next 24 hours. And it gave me a migraine also, so I'm allergic to it.

No problem there.

I took that stuff years ago I believe it was for sinus infections. Now they give me Z Pac for everything.

I lot of meds are not the same. I'm not trying to be a conspiracy theorist but most of the drugs that are FDA approved are made overseas and most of the countries that make them hate Americans anyways.

I would love to go all natural like our ancestors did but it's soo unaffordable it's almost impossible!!!

I already tried to contest the charges from the hospital,
BECAUSE THEY GAVE ME THE WRONG DRUGS and was denied...

This just adds fuel on the fire, I am completely documented they fucked with the wrong guy.

One last post and I'll quit..

Here are all version of the drug,

GENERIC NAME: ciprofloxacin
BRAND NAME: Cipro, Cipro XR, Proquin XR

DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections. Ciprofloxacin belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics which includes levofloxacin (Levaquin), ofloxacin (Floxin), gatifloxacin (Tequin), norfloxacin (Noroxin), moxifloxacin (Avelox), trovafloxacin (Trovan) and others. Ciprofloxacin stops the multiplication of bacteria by inhibiting the reproduction and repair of their genetic material (DNA). The FDA approved ciprofloxacin in October 1987.

PRESCRIPTION: Yes

GENERIC AVAILABLE: Yes

PREPARATIONS: Tablets: 250, 500, and 750 mg. Tablets extended release (XR): 500 and 1000 mg. Microcapsules for suspension: 250 mg/5 ml, 500 mg/5 ml. Injection or Injection concentrate: 200 and 400 mg.

STORAGE: Immediate release tablets: store below 30°C (86°F). Extended release tablets: store between 15-30°C (59-86°F). Microcapsules: store below 25°C (77°F) and protect from freezing. Injection: Store between 5-30°C (41-86°F) and avoid freezing.

PRESCRIBED FOR: Ciprofloxacin is used to treat infections of the skin, lungs, airways, bones, and joints caused by susceptible bacteria. Ciprofloxacin is also frequently used to treat urinary infections caused by bacteria such as E. coli. Ciprofloxacin is effective in treating infectious diarrheas caused by E. coli, Campylobacter jejuni, and Shigella bacteria.

DOSING: For most infections the recommended oral dose for adults is 250-750 mg (immediate release tablets) every 12 hours or 500-1000 mg (extended release tablets) every 24 hours. The usual intravenous dose is 200-400 mg every 8-12 hours.

sorry guys. If I hadn't taken cipro I would be dead from bladder/kidney infections. If I hadn't taken levaquin I would be dead from pneumonia, leigonaires type, long ago. I'm allergic to everything else and these work on me with no side effects. Remember, we are not all descended from the same genetic stock. Maybe thats a politically incorrect fact, but true nonetheless.

True, but it seems the drugs prescribed more recently are worse than they were a few years ago in my opinion. I'm glad they helped you but just be careful.
