| 3 | Amoebic dysentry | During my 10 days cipro i've got fingers joints pain & morning stifness close to rheumatoid artheritis but it was'nt that Still i feel muscle fatigue after 4 months which is unexplained for me What i really need to know is it possible to diagnose cipro toxcity in the laboratory analysis? Or it depends on clinical symptoms? Is there any cure to stop that? When i search on internet Nothing appear except megative ideas and pessemist views We really need helpfull informations from experts | M | 30 | 10 days 500 | 8/8/2013 | 1 | Non-existent stomach bug | fatigue, felt like I wasn't inside my own body, bruising in hands, random muscle and tendon pains, yeast infection. | The day after I completed my prescription, I had a migraine that lasted 24 hours, the most prolonged I've ever had. The first few days Cipro, I had weird aches/burning in my arms, legs, feet and hips. I NEVER have muscle pain. Muscle/tendon pain peaked a week after I started treatment and has started to greatly subside with random pains in calf, Achilles tendon, ribs and forearm. I have been off Cipro for 10 days at this point. As soon as I had read other reviews (just hours after taking my last dose), I immediately started flushing my system with distilled water and fresh squeezed lemon juice. I have also been taking L-Glutathione and glucosamine supplements for good measure and eating only unprocessed food. I'm too young for this ridiculousness. | F | 28 | 3 days 500 2X day | 8/7/2013 | 1 | For thyphoid | Was admitted in the hospital last year April because I had typhoid and was been given ciproflaxcin medication for 4 days and during this period I couldn't sleep most especially at night I fight myself to to sleep and I used to get some sleep around 2-3 am which wouldn't last for 5 hours and on the third day on the hospital bed I began to have this strange muscle bringing my upper and lower jaw ( teeth) together like a force was pulling them, it was so painful and ever since then I have a vision problem as well as wired pulsing in my head and up till now Im still suffering from this effect. I have taken this medicine more than 5 times between last year and now. I recently took it and the day after I finished the whole tablets given to me I had this chill and my whole body was shaking. Please someone should please pass this message out to people out there who haven't get to know the deadly act behind this medication because this is outright deadly | M | 24 | 1 years 500MG | 8/4/2013 | 1 | sinus/ear infection | Severe tendon pain, burning in spine and arms, peripheral neuropathy, heart palpitations, panic attacks, tremors, twitches all over body, mono/flu feeling. Ten months out now and about 65% better with relapses sometimes. Please do not take this medication. And if you think you will be fine because you have before think again. This was the fourth time I was on it. | F | 35 | 4 days 500mg | 8/3/2013 | 1 | Sinus pressure | Dislocated shoulder, ripped tendons, 20% tear in right bicep, sleepless nights, tendinitis in both elbows | Recently dislocated my shoulder and ripped my right bicep doing basic training. Never have been injured in my 37 years of living. Went to the orthopedic and he noticed I had recently taken Cipro and told me 95% likelihood my ailments were from Cipro and told me to go do my own research. No wonder the day this happened, i was like,"how could this be possible that my right arm and shoulder fell apart"..well now I have the answer, that along with my tendinitis that started the week of Cipro and sleepless nights. I hope I get over this! | M | 37 | 6 days 2X day | 7/30/2013 | 1 | yes | I was prescribed Cipro in 2007 for non-existent kidney infection, 1000 mg a day for 2 weeks and then 3 days in September later that day ( for UTI). It melted my cartilage, I have facet joint syndrome now and arthritis in my lower back. I am in suicidal level of pain to this day. Caused overwhelming anxiety, random fever (104 F for no reason)!! flu-like symptoms for years, dry heaves for 3 years straight from my throat closing couple of times a day. Truly bizarre symptoms that together tell doctors nothing ( not that they had an idea in the first place). Please type Cipro is poison and stay away from it forever. | It is criminal that this is still being prescribed. Bayer and Johnson and Johnson KNOW what they're doing to people. | F | 47 | 2 weeks 500 mg 2X day | 7/19/2013 | 1 | u TI | Headache, can't sleep, stomach hurt throat nause | F | 61 | 5 days 500 | 7/18/2013 | 1 | Kidney infection | NEVER TAKE IT I only took 2 tablets was asleep all day and still I feel my sight isn't right and start my new job tomorrow not looking good at all, my doc is useless :( I am still not right and haven't tool them since Friday it's now Sunday night still feel spaced out and a headace :( hope it goes and I'm not like this forever will it go?? | F | 25 | 2 days 250mg | 7/14/2013 | 1 | UTI | Nausea, tiredness, anxiety, depression | I have an anxiety disorder to begin with. Last year I was prescribed cipro for a UTI and had no problems at all. This time around it's making me crazy. I'm supposed to take it for 2 more days but I refuse to now. My anxiety is so bad I'm shaking and crying and feel like I'm going crazy, even though I'm on zoloft. I'm never taking this again! | F | 23 | 10 days 500 mg 2X day | 7/12/2013 | 1 | UTI | I went in for pain in my stomach... long story short I was diagnosis with a UTI the doctor gave me cipro 500mg OMG....

THAT IS THE WORSE MEDICINE THAT I HAVE TAKEN IN MY LIFE IT HAS CRIPPLED ME MORE THEN THE UTI I CANT EAT I CANT FUNCTION RIGHT I ON THE SECOND DAY ON IT I WAS BACK AT THE DOCTOR'S HE SAID I HAD A PANIC ATTACK AS IT CAUSED ME TO HAVE HEART PALPITATIONS, EPISODES OF SWEAT AND THE COLD CHILLS I COULDNT SLEEP SO THE DOCTOR GIVES ME XANAX AND SAID IT WOULD MAKE IT BETTER THAT WAS EVEN WORSE NOW ALL I WAS DOING WAS SLEEPING LIKE ALLL DAY IT WAS HORRIBLE AFTER ONLY 4 DAYS OF BEING ON IT I STOPPED IT MYSELF AND STOPPED THE XANAX TOO...FINALLYYY I HAD MY LIFE BACK SO AFTER A WEEK OF TORTURE I WOULD NEVER TAKE CIPRO IN MY LIFE EVER!!!!!! | F | 32 | 500MG 2X day | 7/9/2013 | 1 | You know a drug is bad when it inspires a Hollywood movie (The East) about corporate greed & corruption that comes at the expense of an unsuspecting public. Unfortunately for us, the film is based on this real-life class of antibiotics that is reducing countless previously healthy & active individuals to cripples--often times for LIFE--while the FDA turns a blind eye. If you have been disabled by Cipro, it is important that you call Phil Blake, CEO of Bayer Healthcare, at (862) 404-5018. It's time he hears from his victims! | Mr. Blake: There are consequences to your actions. | 1X day | 7/1/2013 | 1 | UTI | Severe joint pain. can't walk very good hips hurt sooo bad. Body aches like flu systems. Can't sleep. Was never told of any side effects upon PA. Prescribing. DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG. ITS HORRIBLE. | F | 60 | 7 days 1000 ml | 6/27/2013 | 4 | stomach/ intestinal inflection | Nothing major.. luckily..little anxiousness tiny bit of sleeplessness.. but it worked!! | M | 41 | 10 days 500 mg | 6/24/2013 | 3 | UTI | I am on the first day of this medication and I already feel nausea and fatigue. I slept over 10hours and am still tired and lightheaded. The last medication did not completely cure my UTI but had much better side-effects. I hope this kills the infection before it dills me. I will have to tough it out for another 9 days. | M | 56 | 10 days 500 2X day | 6/22/2013 | 1 | Sinus infection | I had two tendon ruptures (Achilles and rotator cuff) after taking Cipro and my doctors say it a result of taking the drug. There was no Black Box warning - no warning at all. | F | 48 | 7 days 500 mg | 6/18/2013 | 1 | sinus infection | severe joint pain, body aches, extremely fatigued, stomach cramps | I quit taking this poison over a week ago and I am still having all of the symptoms. My joints now pop and crack when I move. This medication needs to be removed from the market. I spoke to the FDA to report my side effects and was told well it is know that it can effect the tendons and cartilage however those side effects are very rare for people under 60. I was advised to contact my DR (which I have and he said what is going on might be from the cipro, but he is not sure) and let him see if I am suffering from what I reported of if it is something else. FDA does not want to hear of any adverse reactions that people are suffering. But the more people that report this they will have listen at some point. | F | 49 | 9 days 500 2X day | 6/14/2013 | 1 | Prostatitis | Post script - I have been off of Cipro for 1 month and Doxy for 3 weeks. Post PSA check found reduced level which was great. Still, I wouldn't take Cipro again given this experience. My normal sleep pattern is back. Thank God! | M | 51 | 500 1X day | 6/11/2013 Patient History | 1 | UTI or Prostitus | Near the end of this course I woke up in middle of night and felt strange - like I'd gone to 'half speed.' I went to hospital and they said I was stressed. Gradually after that I developed worse and worse insomnia until I slept an hour a night if I was lucky. This went on for about 90 days! As the insomnia worsened I got terrible anxiety and felt suicidal. It was hell. | Now I'm 7 months into this and although I'm a little better I'm still in hell. I now sleep 5 hours a night which isn't enough. My shoulder aches, I have plantar facitis, feel tired all the time, have a permanent headache and am clinically depressed. I've had enough, but I'm too scared to end my life. My Doctor doesn't want to accept that a drug he prescribed could do this to me. He says he took it and was fine. Now I'm being treated by the local mental health team, I've lost my business, can't work and am scared stiff about the future. My advice - avoid this drug | M | 47 | 14 days 250mg 3X day | 6/3/2013 | 1 | bladder infection | Sleepy, always sleepy. First felt a little relief from bladder infection. But was missing work and missing life in general because all i wanted to do is sleep. | After awhile I started feeling very week in hands and feet as if i had no muscle strength. Its been over a year and I am still sleeping more than ever, still week, tired, no energy, hands hurt a lot. Causing me problems at work and at home as my family doesn't understand what has happened to me. I started having panic attacks, trying to cover up how tired i was from the rest of the world. Tried to tell my doctor and she said she had never heard of side effects like these...feel like my immune system has been wiped out. | F | 42 | 30 days 1X day | 6/1/2013 | 1 | ear/gland pain | Do not take this medication. After 4 days I had severe burning in arms and spine. Could barely walk for the first week, or move. I felt poisoned like the worst mono/flu you could have at the same time. Tremors, all over twitches, panic, hot cold sensations, stabbing pains, neuropathy, eye floaters. Severe for 5 months. Still only 60-70 percent better 8 months later. | F | 35 | 4 days 500mg | 5/30/2013 |
