I have been diagnosed with a bladder infection. I have RA & osteoarthritis in both knees, I take methotrexate 2 tabs once a week. My doctor prescribed ciprofloxacin HCL 25 0 MG 2x/day My problem is that I have a double knee replacement surgery scheduled for March 8th and I need to take this medication till all gone which would be till March 2nd. I was told by the knee surgeon’s office that all meds & supplements should stop a week before surgery. I will have to stop antibiotic on 3/1
