A member asked:

After finished taking ciprofloacing my muscle became weak, very soft and squishy, i tried to lift weight but the muscles didn't tighten or get hard.

See your doctor: It would be best to see the doctor that prescribed you this medication. Ciprofloxacin is usually a well tolerated medicine however it is possible you suffered an adverse effect.
