Can severe gastrointestinal disorders occur with Cipronex?

In this case, I recommend consulting your doctor. These symptoms often occur when using Cipronex, which contains ciprofloxacin, a medicine from the group of so-called fluoroquinolones. However, bearing in mind the recently completed course of treatment with another antibiotic and the current problems with the intestines, which have also been mentioned, I suggest contacting a doctor to rule out a rare but dangerous colitis. I draw attention to the need to use probiotics when using Cipronex or antibiotics. These symptoms may also result from impaired intestinal bacterial flora. Please remember to maintain a minimum 2 hour break between the preparation with probiotic bacteria and ciprofloxacin and continue using the probiotic for a minimum of 14 days after the end of the antibacterial treatment. I would like to add that during the occurrence of inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract, it is worth considering joining the treatment with sodium butyrate. It is a substance that nourishes intestinal cells, also contributing to the reduction of inflammation. If diarrhea occurs, remember to hydrate the body well.
