If you've ever suffered from depression or anxiety, do not take this drug. The psychological effects are worse than the physical. It has made me into a different, lesser person. | M | 33 | 1.5 days 500mg 2X day | 7/30/2012 | 1 | Diverticulosis | July 30th, 2012 My horrible experience with Diverticulosis and Ciprofloxacin I’m an active 71 year old woman that most people think is in my fifties. I do zumba, dance, ride my bike and exercise at least four times a week. I was first diagnosed with Diverticulosis in 2009 and this was my third flare-up on Thursday July 19th 2012. The pain was so strong I was unable to stand up straight. My Dr scheduled a CAT scan and determined that I did indeed have a Diverticulosis flare up. I was prescribed Ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice a day and Metronidazole 500 mg three times a day. On the first day after taking the medicine I threw up everything by noon. On the second day I decided to spread the medicine out and take it at different times over the course of the day. I was then able to keep it down but felt very sick. The pain in the area of my abdomen began to subside but after four days of taking the medicine I had unbearable pain in my left thigh which by the fifth day felt l | Even though I'm 71 most people think i'm in my fifty's. jUntil now I take dance classes, Zumba exercise 4 times a week | F | 71 | 5 days 500 mg 2X day | 7/30/2012 | 1 | prostatitus | this drug is poison. took 2x a day. stopped after 2nd day. muscle and joint pain, dizziness, fainting, never again will I take this drug. | M | 50 | 2 weeks 500 mg | 7/27/2012 | 1 | Suspected UTI | I have now been bedridden for over 1,000 days as a result of just TWELVE Ciprofloxacin pills taken back in October of 2009. Yes--you read that correctly! A mere six grams of Cipro destroyed my entire life in ways I never even fathomed possible. I am beyond PISSED!!!!!! | No words can possibly convey the never-ending HORROR Bayer's poison has inflicted upon my body and my life. I have lost absolutely everything. Prior to Cipro I was an amazingly healthy, active and independent 30 year old. I'm now nearly 33, bedridden, unemployed, no longer able to live on my own, and my own body is my absolute worst enemy. May every employee at both Bayer and the corrupt FDA burn in the pits of HELL for what they are doing with this poison. CRIMINALS!!! www.ciproispoison.com | M | 32 | 6 days 500 2X day | 7/27/2012 | 1 | Misdiagnosed diverticulitis | Severe panic attacks, crazy pulse, out of body feeling, severe hip joint pain, shortness of breath, permanent hyperthyroidism | F | 35 | 1 days | 7/26/2012 | 1 | UTI | Joint pain, tremors, heart palpitations, some anxiety. And got WORSE when I had what was suppose to be DECAF tea! DO NOT DRINK ANYTHING WITH CAFFEINE! I am kicking myself as I already knew the DANGERS of taking this medication. AND I WILL NEVER AGAIN TAKE IT! I am not taking any more of it! I don't need my dr to tell me to stop taking it. So if you have any SIDE EFFECT STOP TAKING IT right then and there... and call your dr right away. Or even a pharmacist. Of which I did and they told me to go see a doctor right away. DOES NOT HAVE TO BE YOUR PRIMARY! | THE FDA should really tweek this medication, and or BAN IT! | F | 37 | 4 days 500mg 2X day | 7/25/2012 | 2 | Emergency Appendectomy Recovery | Ongoing random muscle twitches affecting my entire body...mostly at rest or when not in motion. Extremely aggravating and scary to me. | I had no idea this drug could cause something like this weeks after stopping use but it's the only thing that makes sense since I'm a very healthy 28 year old woman with NO history of this. | F | 28 | 10 days 2X day | 7/21/2012 | 1 | Suspected infection | Poor cricluation, possible nerve damage, possible muscle damage, joint inflamation, tendonitis. | I took this a month ago and can still hardly walk.

Its been over a year since I took it and I am still awful. the symptoms are too many for me to list here. very weak. | this drug ruined my life. | M | 29 | 5 days 500mg 2X day | 7/17/2012 | 5 | UTI, possible kidney infection | First time I took it I was quite dizzy and a little nauseous. After that, nothing, as long as I remembered to drink a full glass of water each time I took it. (Slight diarrhea but less than I've had with other antibiotics in the past) | Very effective and worth the minor side effects. | F | 23 | 5 days 500 2X day | 7/15/2012 | 1 | Salmonella typhoid | Medicine worked fine until the last day. Although it resolved my salmonella and typhoid, it left me with a ruptures tendon in my left ankle. | F | 39 | 6 days | 7/9/2012 | 1 | uti | About 2-3 hours after the 3rd dose I had numbness, tingling around my face and body (mostly face); itching mouth ears, and eyes; dizziness; anxiety and a feeling I can only describe as impending doom. | I did not have a notable rash. This was my first time using Cipro. Many parts of my body, especially joints, hurt like something is attacking it. Weird and scary! | F | 45 | 2 days 500mg 2X day | 7/9/2012 | 1 | Prostate | Dizzy, ear ringing, finger joint pain, gout flareups, cant sleep, knee pain, back pain, weak joints (hands, feet, knees) | I used to box, workout, and now I can barely do anything, this stuff is the devil.

During course of antibiotic, immune suppression resulting in shingles flare up. Also believe this type of antibiotic permanently disable my mom with tendon injuries. | I had NO idea that fluoroquinolone class antibiotics would cause such damage. I didn't know until my issues that they were probably the cause of my mom's disability. I was given Cipro twice recently for UTIs (barely an infection...trace amounts of white blood cells) and I developed severe mystery ailments during and after taking the antibiotic. I just didn't know to connect it until I did the math with the second round causing things to progressively get worse. | F | 34 | 6 days 500mg 2X day | 7/7/2012 | 1 | UTI-KIDNEY INFECTION | On day 3 of taking CIPRO I had no strength in arms and legs, bedridden for 24 hrs. Fever of 100.5, headache, body aches similar to the flu, nausea, dry heaves, weird sensation on outside of my vagina. | This was my first time taking CIPRO. I am going to my doctor to report the side effects. I will not take it again. Thank God the strength in my legs returned after 24 hours and fever and nausea subsided. A headache, stiff neck, back pain remain, weird sensation outside of my vagina.... I am writing this at the 48 hour marker of being off CIPRO. I bought FLORA or Udo's Choice Probiotics to battle yeast infections. I pray for it all to clear up in a day or two. | F | 36 | 3 days 500 2X day | 7/6/2012 | 1 | UtI | Severe restlessness, anxiety, body aches, severe insomnia, sensitive skin, and headaches.
