What is the usual cipro (ciprofloxacin) dose/schedule for travelers diarrhea. i do not have access to a physician currently but do have a kit of six 500mg tablets.

Infectious Diarrhea: Please do not take the antibiotics unless you are feverish and having significant bloody diarrhea. Standard traveler's diarrhea needs immodium, not antibiotics.
