Medicine question
Hi I have been prescribed 500mg of CIPRO for a auto twice a day for 5 days. I already suffer from anxiety and have read many reviews that this causes severe panic attacks and anxiety. I have taken one pill should I stop?

Hello,
It is completely ok to take cipro when you have anxiety or depression. cipro is to treat an infection it does not worsen anxiety or depression .
However if you are on some medications for anxiety and depression then keep your doctor informed about the drugs you take to prevent drug interactions And if you have allergies to any medication please mention that too.
Hope this answers your question.

Hello dear,
Every medicine can cause some side effects including even paracetamol and multivitamin....In your case antibiotic is being given to fight off infection...Panic attacks or anxiety are not the common or commonest side effects and also chances are more if interacting with other meds...Also kindly discuss with your Clinician about it...Done
