 1   Another Cipro victim recently decided to end their own life rather than continue living with the nightmarish and never-ending side effects of this nasty antibiotic. You know a drug is bad when death is preferable to its side effects! Get this &$%# off the market NOW! How many more kids are going to have to grow up without a mother or father because of corporate greed and corruption? The folks at Bayer must be brought to justice. Of course that will never happen through legal channels, as they (the drug industry) have bought off the FDA. We are not being protected, and if we want justice it seems we must get it ourselves.

 1   To the 23yo female who posted on 7/6/15: You are obviously quite ignorant about Cipro and its (abysmal) safety profile. A bullet has a half-life of what, a fraction of a second as it passes through your body? But we all know how deadly and destructive bullets can be. Keep on taking your Cipro like a good consumer and we'll see who's a "complainer" once she's permanently unable to walk. It's one thing to knowingly endanger your own health, it's quite another to encourage others to do the same with theirs. You have a lot of learning yet to do!

 1  UTI Exhaustion, depression, anxiety, insomnia, hypoglycemia, food allergies, autoimmune disorders, audio distortion, difficulty speaking, migraines, etc... Unless you have a life or death emergency, do not ever touch this medicine. Doctors do not know the reality of the risks nor do they care. This is not like other medications. The side effects are in a completely different league, I've been bedridden for 7 years because of Cipro. It destroyed every area of my life. Even if you tolerated it before, that means nothing. This med destroys people by the thousands. 37 10 days

 1  infection Extreme, EXTREME pain. I feel like I'm 80. I'm 20. This drug is not supposed to be used as care-free as stupid physicians use it. People blame the drug companies for being greedy, but a large part of the problem as well is stupid doctors who don't know when a drug is really supposed to be used and when it's not.

 1  Prostatitis At the beginning pins and needles and burns all over my body thought was from the prostatitis :( Should have stopped then. Middle of therapy increasing urination every day visited the bathroom 20 or more times. At the end of treatment developed CNS overstimulation, light headedness, nausea, depersonalisation with pressure headache like someone was inserting an icepick on my head, blur vision, double vision, Doctors thought i had a stroke or some subarachnoid hemmorhage but then after MRI, MRV was negative they wanted to talk me into antidepressants!!!! UNBELIEVABLE. I refused it and carried on with my life or tried to. 2 months later headache increased so i was hospitalized. Also developed unsteadiness and dizziness which lasted another 3 months. 3 straight months i stayed in bed couldnt get up for work due to fatigue and dizziness and headache. previously played 3-4 hours a day in amateur soccer league and weight trained, never had any problems whatsoever. By month tried to walk bu Have studied Cipro side effects for months now as a biochemist was very worried with this situation. The drug is derived from Quinine Alkaloids which are known for centuries to cause irreversible CNS damage. Its a pitty that Bayer doesnt state that and it is a crime that the FDA permits it. There is something going on with the permission of this drug on the market. 29 15 days

 1  pneumonis I took Cipro for two days, 500 mgs twice daily. On the second day, which was Christmas day, I started having muscle spasms and pain in my left shoulder and scapula. Within hours I was in the most excruciating pain I have ever felt in my life, and I am a dougle lung transplant recipient and did not have this much pain. I could not even get to the ER, because the pain was so severe when I would move, that my family didn't want to try to put me in the car. The next day, I decided to research the side effects of Cipro, and realized that the pain I was having was due to this medication. I contacted my physician and he advised me to stop taking it, which I did. The pain has subsided but is still there. I hope that it will resolve itself DONT TAKE CIPRO NO MATTER WHAT. 59 2 days

 1  UC Severe suicidal depression, seizures, dizziness, yellow skin, dark urine, bruises, a red rash on my face, I literally felt like I had been poisoned. Only an inept idiot of a doctor would give you this for UC. (It made my symptoms worse, besides the all the side effects.) Run, don't walk, if your doctor prescribes this poison. This is a VERY dangerous drug. Its side effects are potentially debilitating, especially when combined with prednisone.
