CIPRO HC  (CIPROFLOXACIN HYDROCHLORIDE; HYDROCORTISONE):  This medication is used to treat bacterial ear infections. It is used to treat outer ear infections (also known as swimmer's ear) in children and adults. This medication contains a combination of ciprofloxacin (a quinolone-type antibiotic) and hydrocortisone (an anti-inflammatory corticosteroid). This ear drop works by stopping the growth of bacteria and reducing ear swelling and discomfort. This medication treats only bacterial ear infections. It will not work for other types of ear infections. Unnecessary use or overuse of any antibiotic can lead to its decreased effectiveness.   (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA) FDA Approval Date: 1998-02-10

 5  Cronic UTI's from Fibroid The side effects were that I felt a bit weird and nervous. The feelings end 24hrs after taking the medication. This stuff really works on UTI's immediately. Do not take it with Dairy. For me, this is one of the few anti-biotics that don't make me feel like pulling an "OJ Simpson" on everyone. F 38 7 days

 4  UTI I have taken this drug before and I become tired, lethargic, foggy-headed (at first) but nothing as severe as what other people report. This is the only antibiotic that has helped cure UTIs when I get them - I ended up in the hospital about 8 months ago when another antibiotic I was given failed to work. I was then given Cipro and that eventually cleared it all up. F 27 2 days

 1  diverticulitis During the summer of 2005, I developed a severe case of diverculitis and was rushed to the ER. Due to the severity of the pain, I was given cipro and have had permanent pain in my joints since that time. My hands are so painful and stiff most of the time that I can barely use them. I am really sorry to discover that the joint pain may be a side effect of the drug that was intended to help me. The nature of my job is such that I need the use of my hands. I am in pain most of the time and have great difficulty performing my job, household chores, and very basic tasks using my hands. F 48 1 days
