Tendon rupture: Tendon rupture is possible with moxifloxacin, which is quite debilitating. Tendon pain can be an early sign. Prostatitis takes long term treatment to fix, so I recommend talking with your Doctor TODAY to come up with an alternative medication if possible.

Was on Cipro (ciprofloxacin) & Avelox last year. Elbow tendon is still weak. PT would be $60 per visit. What can I do to encourage healing? Can I strengthen it?
