Doc put me on 60 500 mg cipro (ciprofloxacin) pills twice a day for 'possible prostitis' it may not even be an infection. i'm 19. will cipro (ciprofloxacin) blind me or damage me?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: taking antibiotics for a longer time for prostate infections is appropriate Watch for diarrhea, Achilles tendon pain, nausea etc. If any problems see provider also take a probiotic once or twice a day to prevent gut problems
