Will bactrim or cipro (ciprofloxacin) help an abcessed tooth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but...: Root canal infections tend to respond better to other antibiotics, such as amoxicillin, clindamycin, or azithromycin. You might get a benefit from the Cipro (ciprofloxacin) or bactrim, but they are not the typically accepted first options.
