How long does cipro (ciprofloxacin) stay in your system after you've stopped taking it? i have a uti and only one pill left but i'm not better.

See your doctor: If you're not better after taking the cipro, (ciprofloxacin) it could mean the bacteria is not sensitive to that antibiotic, or there could be something else wrong. You should contact your doctor.

Maybe resistent germ: If you are on your last pill of Cipro (ciprofloxacin) and symptoms haven't improved, your infection may be resistant to Cipro (ciprofloxacin) and related antibiotics. The doc who rx'ed the Cipro (ciprofloxacin) may have sent a culture test to the lab, which can tell what other antibiotics would work best. Call that dr's office and they should be able to prescribe something else if necessary.
