A member asked:
I have tendonisis in the shoulder i may need to take ciprofloxacin would this affect my tendonisis am i more at risk of tendon rupture?

Tendonitis is a risk: I can not say whether the cipro (ciprofloxacin) will make your tendnitis worse or not. You need to discuss this with your physician and see if there is an alternative to cipro (ciprofloxacin)
