About Cipro Injection

Cipro Injection belongs to the class of antibiotic medication known as fluoroquinolones used to treat bacterial infections such as respiratory tract infections, ear, sinus infections, urinary tract infections, genital tract infections, gastrointestinal tract infections, intra-abdominal infections, skin & soft tissue infections, and bone & joint infections. Cipro Injection is also used to treat inhalational anthrax post-exposure and as empirical therapy for febrile neutropenic patients.

Cipro Injection is antibacterial in nature and kills the bacteria that trigger various infections. Cipro Injection contains Ciprofloxacin which inhibits the division and repair of bacterial cells, thereby killing the bacteria. As a result, it treats a wide range of bacterial infections. 

Cipro Injection will be administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Cipro Injection may cause side effects such as injection site reactions, nausea, headache, diarrhoea, vomiting, restlessness, and rash. The majority of these side effects subside over time without the need for medical intervention. However, contact your doctor if the side effects continue to bother you.

Do not take Cipro Injection if you are allergic to ciprofloxacin, other quinolone antibiotics, or any of the components in this medication. Inform your doctor if you have QT prolongation, CNS disorders, or hypokalaemia. Concomitant use of tizanidine is not recommended. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or nursing a baby. Avoid activities that require concentration or coordination, such as operating machinery or driving, as Cipro Injection may make you restless and lightheaded.

Drug Warnings

Do not take the Cipro Injection if you are allergic or have had a severe reaction to ciprofloxacin or other quinolone or fluoroquinolone antibiotics such as levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, ofloxacin, gemifloxacin, and delafloxacin. Inform your doctor if you have heart disorders, peripheral neuropathy, electrolyte imbalances, muscle weakness, epilepsy, diabetes, low blood potassium levels, joint problems, and CNS disorders. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant or breastfeeding. Cipro Injection may cause tendon problems, peripheral neuropathy, CNS problems, and myasthenia gravis (muscle problems); consult your doctor immediately if you experience symptoms of these conditions. Children below 18 years of age have a higher chance of getting bone, tendon (musculoskeletal), or joint problems such as pain or swelling while taking Cipro Injection ; therefore, it should not be used as the first choice of treatment in children.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Avoid consuming excessive amounts of caffeine-containing foods and beverages such as coffee, tea, cola, energy drinks, and chocolate.
  • Probiotics should be taken after finishing the entire course of Cipro Injection in order to replenish good bacteria that may have been lost in the intestines. The risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea can be decreased by taking probiotics after receiving antibiotic treatment. Some fermented foods, including yoghurt, cheese, sauerkraut, and kimchi, can help rebuild the beneficial bacteria in the intestine. 
  • Increase your intake of fibre-rich foods since they are simpler for gut bacteria to digest, which encourages their growth.
  • While taking Cipro Injection , make sure to drink lots of water or other fluids every day.
  • Avoid drinking alcohol since it may cause dehydration and interfere with your sleep, which makes it difficult for your body to help Cipro Injection fight infections.
