- Team 10 investigative reporter Jennifer Kastner spoke to former Cipro users in San Diego who say they hit rock bottom after taking the medication.
This is the poison that started my paranoia with medicine and doctors. I wish I never took this thing. There needs to be a serious class action lawsuit around the world.
Hey are you feeling better now I took levofloaxin and having severe feet pain and joint pain in Palm
What were you diagnose with before being prescribed this anti?
@@shivas3455 same here how do you feel
@@sexyrt3144 hey now I don't feel that much pain seems like getting better after 6 months, since how long you were in medication I actually took 500 mg for 14 days and cipro500mg for 7 days
My mother just got prescribed it and guess where it's going 😅
The makers of cipro and producers need more than getting sued they need to be sentenced to death for crimes against humanity!
I was just prescribed this and no one not even my doctor warned me of any of this
Heyitsmaria ya I had to I had severe SIBO
Isabella Avery did you honestly have any side effects?
@This way stop
Most Doctors are not aware of the side effects, or don't believe there are any. I took it 7 years ago went from power walking for over 10 years 6 day a week, to hardly being able to walk. I have improved, but will never be the same. Don't take it, I have heard if it doesn't effect you at first over time it will.
Same and I ended up in hospital.
15 years ago I had a bad case of prostate infection. It was so tight I could not pee at all.
Ended up in ER. They put in catheter to empty my super extended bladder. I was sent home with catheter line tied to my lower leg going into plastic bag. They prescribed CIPRO for for 10 days. I did not bother reading paperwork that came with it. I trusted my urologist. My infection got better but I did have weird side effects. Page forward to 2023. I felt I had UTI. Urologist took the urine sample and said that I did have infection. He also put me on CIPRO. Went to my pharmacy to get it and the only thing pharmacist tole me was to stay away from direct sunlight. I read 8 pages of paperwork that was included listing all the possible side effects. t read like a horror story of the worst kind...8 pages !!! One of the ingredients is Polyethylene Glycol commonly found in antifreeze (coolant for your car) which is deadly if ingested by people or animals. If this is the best science can do, I'll go to a witch doctor. Why was this drug authorized?
I was curious what this stuff was after watching one of MrBallen’s video
Same I watched that video.
I work in a Pharmacy as a Tech and I had no clue how bad the side effects of this antibiotic were… It’s also really common to see it getting dispensed to patients.
After I took Cipro, just one dose, I woke up and couldn’t move. Within 45 minutes it happened. I changed to a different antibiotic and was ok. After another uti, I was prescribed it a second time not knowing that was the problem. Again, within an hour I couldn’t move my body and couldn’t even talk. Thankfully, I was very lucky and I was able to move again after a couple of hours. I immediately called my doctor and my pharmacist to tell them to NEVER give me that again. I even got a medical alert bracelet stating I’m allergic to it. It was that scary. There’s much safer antibiotics out there that you should use. Western medicine can be so scary
Took cipro for a month, every joint in my body was in pain and started having panic attacks. Started taking it right after I first started going to the gym and assumed all the pain was normal from working out. That was years ago, I’m 28 now and walking barefoot on hard surfaces is unbearable. Knees and calves hurt every day at work. Can’t raise my left hand straight in the air without it feeling like I’m gonna dislocate my shoulder. Tell doctors this is going on and I’m pretty sure it’s from cipro, they test me for arthritis, it comes back negative, write a script for Tylenol and send me home
The doctor gave me antibiotic twice and I told him that everything was hurting and he told me I was crazy. I was so active but after this my life chance , I couldn’t exercise , is too painful Now I don't feel alone any more because I can see that sadly this happened to alot of people.
Are you having joint and muscle pain in feet and palm
How are you feeling these days?
My bones were weakened after one pill..my bones now creak...it's criminal they still give this to innocent people.
I was prescribed these for a “uti” back in 2020 and my life has been hell ever since. I have pains in my lower abdomen and bladder area. Feels almost like a constant pressure/congestion. Nothing down there feels normal anymore. Its only been two years since and ive had on and off uncomfortable aches and pains.
Same here. Did you ever get it fixed?
@@Andrew-zi5qp me too what i do right now about the side effects
Same here 😢🙏🏾
It affects the brain. Neurological damage causes devastating psychological changes reflecting the damage. Even if you don't feel the pain, you will experience the grief of loss.
It destroys the mitochondria and DNA, it rips you from al your magnesium, destroys the whole gutflora, stops the collagen metabolism (thats why your tendons are rupturing) it blocks the gaba receptors so you cant sleep.
It should be bannen immidiatly
I was just prescribed this and thank God I decided to look it up.
Did you get a different antibiotic?
Did you take it ?
same, I just took one and felt the need to look more into the drug. I am going to call my doctor tomorrow and see why she didn't warn be about any of this. At the pharmacy the guy said my Medi-cal wouldn't cover it because they don't agree with the drug and mentioned Medi-Cal is "cheap" ... but Red Cross covered it. I paid $1.01 from the $20.n Glad I looked into this.
Me too mine going right in the trash
Keep those parasites/worms in your body/brain then.
It's crazy how some prescription drugs can effect people differently. I took Cipro for the full 10days as directed and not one single issue or side effect. This really put things into perspective for me because you never know how your body will react and if the pill/capsule you take, could be your very last time being alive!... 😔
Same here. Took it 2x and no sides
Yeah, I've taken Cipro a few times and Levaquin once or twice. No problems. I wonder if it's really the drugs causing these side effects or it's some other condition they have.
I’m on it now for 3 days. It sux. I cant even think straight. Called Dr and asked for different medicine.
@@1southernsun same here. 3 days with 1 per day out of x20. I'm not going to finish the remainder after 3 unusual side effects.
@@1southernsun Uggggggg, definitely get off of it ASAP and stay on top of your Doctor to ensure you get the medication that you need!... Stay strong and please make sure that your close & trusted friends, family. Co-workers or neighbors are aware that you may be in distress if things start going south with your health!.... I'm so sorry you are going through this!.... 😔
How can they STILL be able to sell this???
There was a man who died from peripheral neuropathy. He didnt sleep for 4 months and he was taking this to cure his UTI. It is suspected that this drug is what killed him
Deadly. Cipro disabled me and killed my friend . She took herself to an assisted dying clinic to end her pain. Where is the outrage ?
Where are there assisted dying clinics?
Please share, I also was floxed. It's been 8 yrs and counting worst time of my life. This poison is still on the shelf waiting to cripple patients mentally and physically. Beware may blessings be upon you.
For how long did you take the pills?
@@7CFlo it's sad how they literally giving us poison and we can't do anything about it.... I did not even have the infection yet my doctor gave it to me as a "precautionary antibiotic" because he THOUGHT that I might be having a urinary tract infection... On the 4th day I couldn't anymore so I stopped.... Now 3 and a half weeks later my bones are swelling and I'm having short term memory loss
@@7CFlo yeah they say you read too much on the internet.... Anyway what's wrong in reading too much in the internet? If that's saving my life... Saving me from your incompetence, I'd rather do it than die bruh
@@7CFlo exactly... I wish the FDA sheads light on this matter very soon...
@@kareenagopaul8061 5 long years I had no idea the damage they would inflict on my body still to this day , My doctors dropped the ball over and over I have 5 of the 7 Black box warnings. Stay blessed Kareena
Who’s here from Mr Ballen
LMAOOO YUP
Yup!
Yeppp
Me!!!!!!!!!! God damn this drug will make you disabled, suffered, and die.
Omg, the last day of my rx I went into acute psychosis where I was perfectly calm but I had the strong urge to walk into the road in front of one of the semis that go by. That easily could've been me. I knew I was reacting to the poison because it was so sudden and unusual but it really was a strong urge to do that and I was almost in a euphoric state. It's very scary.
This happens to me with keflex and Flagyl. But not Cipro.
How long did it take for those symptoms to go away? Did you take anything ? I took the pill for 3 days and have the same symptoms but doctors just sent me home and said it was anxiety.
@@elsagrace3893 I’m taking flagyl right now which is why I’m here. I thought it’s just me. I feel like it exacerbated my anxiety. It causes panic attacks, loss of appetite, depression for me. I’m on day 5 and supposed to take it for 12 days 😭
@@jnl321 How ya doing now? I took the same poison.
I had a wisdom tooth emergency and I was prescribed this by ER doctor. After the first dose, I had extreme diarrhea and then nausea. I could not keep any food in me on top of my already painful face. By the 5th day I had lost 10lbs and could no longer walk straight. I walked into the ER and they thought I had Corona virus but I had to insist it was the antibiotic. They sent a culture to the lab and then they diagnosed me with CDAD. The condition was wrecking havoc on my intestines and kidneys and I was dehydrated. They gave me another 2 antibiotics; one to fix my now UTI because of cipro and one to deal with my wisdom tooth. In addition I had painkillers and one for nausea. They also gave me probiotics but my body couldn't handle them. I'll nvr take that again.
I'm sorry to hear that,i hope you get better,i was prescribed this for my ear,but after some research i'm not taking that crap.
Greetings from Germany
How did you heal
Dr neeraj joshi from Nepal prescribed me cipro and metron in 2020 March for an unknown infection when I had a mild fever and stomach ache. And i am still having its side effects peripheral neuropathy along with mild stabbing pains at different areas of feet and hands, eczema onset and, tinnitus. This is still being prescribed for an normal infection. I think that fucking doctor knew what is going to happen after taking these drugs about various side effects and wanted us to suffer. May he riot in hell.
@@gaurabshakya485 What were you doing in Nepal?
@@gaurabshakya485 sameeeee my legs are killing me,,, it was Doctors from Midat hospital lagankhel and when I told them they were acting sooo unknown!! it felt like someone was shooting constantly in my legs and I only took 2pills. It still hurts so muchh now,,,, when do you think the effect will be over???
I am DEVASTED!!! I'm going through this now after being given Cipro TWICE in the same year. My neuropathy is debilitating!!! The brain fog is eve worse than the neuropathy, as bad as it is. I want this STOPPED. People are dying, I'M DYING!!!!
Just got an Rx from the ER nurse have it to me. No one including Dr spoke to me about it yet the DR was not busy I think I was the only one there. Of course I got a lecture on the dangers of herbal medicine I'm taking.
And marijuana remains illegal.....
I had taken Cipro several times. The last time, my whole body broke out in hives, then blisters. Then my dead skin sloughed off ,causing my whole body to itch. I was in hospital for 8 days.
I took two and had rash and itching all over also I couldn't sleep no mater what I did.. I hope I'm ok
@@benchmarks1016 i just took 1, i feel really weird my chest feel hard
@@MrKkdkk hey I'm fine, with time ull get better, I got insomnia btw it took me a month n a half to go away
@@benchmarks1016 actually im at the ER right now, i had chest discomfort and my heart beat feels weird so i go and get checked. Now im just waiting to go home
@@MrKkdkk yes I have heard of irregular heartbeat specially when yr laying down in bed u hear it and it's scary... I promise you time will heal, there are many communities on the net
Now I know this, I’ll never take this antibiotic if it is offered to me and I’ll advise my family to do the same.
If there is another antibiotic out there that does the same job but without the side effects I’ll happily take that.
Personally with side effects like these, these drugs should only be used as a last resort when someone is potentially at death’s door. Why else would you take a risk like that?
I took Levaquin a couple of months ago. It gave me severe leg pain and seems to have affected my memory.
I just got done taking cipro 2x a day 500 mgs for 9 1/2 days...I had trouble breathing and still cannot sleep beyond an hour or so...then my UTI came back and now I am on Keflex. It was a real trip to hell...also anxiety. I ordered some magnesium that should be here in a few days. I hope it helps...
Hope you're doing better!
How is the Keflex working and I hope that you're doing well
I wish I'd seen this sooner. Make sure that the UTI is actually back before taking anything else. This is exactly why I kept getting more Cipro over a year because UTI symptoms were back, I'd get tested and told they'd call if I needed something different or nothing but no one ever called. I got my records after all that and NONE of the UTIs we're positive and no one told me. So I took all that for nothing. The very first one I was treated for was real, after that it was inflammation of the lining and bladder from the Cipro mimicking the symptoms.😑
Hey! Could you provide an update? How long did it take for those symptoms to go away? I took the pill for 3 days and have the same symptoms but doctors just sent me home and said it was anxiety.
@@possumfriend2335 how have you been treating this inflammation of the bladder??
I found this bc I’m currently taking cipro and I’m experiencing symptoms of renal failure. I’m getting therapy for anger and depression and in the last week it got really really bad. Worse than ever. I didn’t consider the cipro could be playing a role 😬 I have to stop taking the medication anyway but this really open my eyes!
Reading comments... also I’ve been 5 nights with no sleep. I didn’t consider it could be the cipro!
Yeah Brandon, have trouble sleeping also...I can't believe this med is still for sale...

I took Ciprofloxacin in 2014 and I see now how lucky I was for nothing happened to me
How many did you take ?

I have improved, but will never be the same. Don't take it, I have heard if it doesn't effect you at first over time it will.
I’m having severe side effect omg so scary, dizziness shortness of breath, very weak, tired fatigue and a whole lot
I noticed it's the individual drug company formula that's the problem. Cipo in it's original form was fabulous. But over the years of using different ingredients to make the cipo has gone wild. As with other name brand drugs. ... It's like a recipe for Chocolate Chip cookies. It made in different ways and ingredients. Different companies still label as the same product but it's different. . Also a generic is close to original but has different ingredients. Also, over years the original formula could change within any company. Can anyone test to see what in the drug prescriptions fromula many companies use then compared to the Cipro original formula?
Has anyone posted about a Class Action Lawsuit or something about this? I knew the name sounded familiar, I was prescribed this last year, and have known I felt "off" for a while now. If there's not one, there needs to be one now!
It is also described as a chemotherapy drug.Was anyone aware of this when it was given to them?I can not walk right now.
took a single dose, couldn't feel my entire arm and could barely lift it as well as leg weakness with extreme nausea and diarrhea. :(
How are you feeling now?
What about extreme fatigue? I was so wiped out I decided to stop taking it and take my chances. I could barely do anything while taking this. I went to the Urgent center and the doctor didn’t hear anything I said and just said “finish it.”Nope! I couldn’t walk or even get up. Plus I had a fever of 101°. Next time I just eliminate the trip to the doctor altogether and I’ll figure it out myself. Sometimes they really don’t know anything.

I used 3 weeks of cipro for suspected prostatitis "even urine negaitve" then 4 tablets of Bactrim 4 days ago , then started to have extreme cold feet symptoms and stopped all medications now, how long Cipro/Bactrim Cold feet effect should last :(. I have read that these Floxies can affect nerves and cause damage! Been one month out and still getting tingling and cold feet :(.
did the prostatitis symptoms goes away ?
How are you feeling now ?
I was given this for a UTI and few months after i woke up and was in real pain, my joints started to swell and muscles ache😔. Sadly i didn't know this was the issue as they told me i had Dengue Fever but after taking it again for another uti I realized it was the issue now im feeling all the pains i worked so hard to get rid of.😢 Any help on what to use . My fingers are swollen , my shoulders hurt and my wrist by the distal radius is swollen i cant hold things due to the pain and my knees hurt , elbow looks inflamed omg sigh😢😢
I refused this just 2 months ago. My urologist was checking me out for a turp. When I refused the drug the PA argued with me acussing me of thinking I knew more than him. I simply said I have read the paperwork that comes with it and I don't want it. So they gave nothing. I'm recovering OK from the turp but still have an infection. I just had a urine test and plan to take the results to another doctor and try to get an antibiotic that works without destroying my life.
Is this the same cipro-T that is prescribed for UTIs.... Coz I took them and I feel so bad
Yes it is, took it and i really regret it

I was prescribed Ciprofloxacin, after the first dosage you start to think that it's the infection that is making you feel worst, body aches , unable to sleep, thirsty all the time, barely able to move, fever was up and down all night no matter if I took ibuprofen.
Before the second dose of Ciprofloxacin fever was more manageable, I had started feeling better and was giving Ciprofloxacin the credit, 30 minutes after I took it everything started happening again, I started to not make sense but I went ahead and took 1 more dose after that and was still experiencing the same side effects.
This was to much, we called the doctor to get a prescription changed and was done the next day, I had taken 1 more dose and regretted it. I still feel the side effects, hard to stand up can't be up for a while, random pin and needles stabbing sensations, migraines. If you feel worst on the first dose consult your doctor asap.
@@mauricelopez1745 hello how are you feeling now i I am feeling like that did recovery

I tear tendons and ligaments from head to toe almost every day. I took antibiotics for 2days. I can’t believe this nightmare.
Any better now?
The FDA should un-approve this drug.
Is there another drug that won't do all that damage but would do the same repair
I never had any issues until I accidentally took two doses hours apart then waited 12 hours after to take yet another . now the back of my ankle hurts , my right arm is weak and I have major dizziness / fatigue .

Congratulations o your new baby. Fight this poison and get well to enjoy family time.
@@jintygm yeah I will get them into me asap I'll get some today, feels like my leg muscles are being stretched but there actually not, I hate sounding dramatic 😂 and thank you I will 🙂
@@KEire1916 you are not dramatic by any means.
We are floxed 😢😢 and will support each other. Hugs to your baby boy 👦👪 x
I’m sorry, they encourage PATIENTS to discuss the risks and benefits with their doctor?? We’re taught as a society to trust our providers-that they will disclose any potential concerns associated with our treatments. The onus is not on the patients to be skeptical enough of healthcare professionals that they have to draw out information like this when they can’t possibly know, without some medical background, that they’re not getting all the information they need.
My mom's body deteriorated after taking this she's gone gone never ever take this drug
I'm sorry to hear . How old is she ? I've been devastated from this drug for a year now and am only 39yrs old
They give them to people once they are forty and they make them go crazy
@@Myworldmymind908 I think the cure is in the spinal fluid for this if I am not mistaken but it's not a good idea because it can cause more PTSD
@@animallover8779 what doctor would be able to deal with this ?
@@Myworldmymind908 neurologist nuerosuergeon ask them about a csf leak from the Cipro
Ban Cipro!!!!!
I just took this for pneumonia. I didn’t finish taking it because it started making me feel weird in the head. It’s been 3 days and I feel very weak, but im recovering. Don’t take this crap yall
side effects, at least 3 months at most the rest of your life of excruciating pain which may drive you to suicide, joint and tendon locking and excruciating pain accompanied with it, paralysis. death due to jumping off a building, jumping out infront of cars or trains, injuries to the head or heart due to a firearm. overdosing on pills.
Its not just this antibiotic
Biggest mistake of my life. Ive been suffering from insane anxiety for a week I really hope it will go away!
I went to the doctor I kept having this sensation of impending doom I couldn’t shake this feeling but they prescribed me some hydroxyzine It has helped but I still have some anxiety. attacks how do you cope?
Did it go away??? I'm just discovering this is what has me feeling crazy.
jk....dry ginger powder and mix it with fresh yellow lemon juice ( not bottle juice.. a real yellow lemon fruit )....eat this mixture .....and take nap for 1 hour.....all brain/nerves system..will work...great again....no more brain fog....thankyou....
hi hope ur doing better. i am currently dealing with the same thing, the anxiety and high heart rate. i cant sleep at night :(
@@Lalito3412 omg I thought i thought I was thinking out loud when you said “impending doom” bec that’s exactly how I feel while taking these pills
My mom got schizophrenia from this and acts like an autistic child. She has ptsd from this shit don't ever take this guy's ask for something else. My mom went insane and made weird sounds and claimed she was a snake and made animal sounds. Then proceeded to go crazy and make weird sounds. I miss my mom so much I cry because I will never have my mother again she is gone in the head. She acts like she is drunk and wants to do bad things.
I understand how you are feeling , I was put on cipro last year July and my Dr didn't inform how dangerous this class of antibiotics were. The worst part was me taking it together with kolonpin during my taper ,soon after that my life was changed. Just like your mom I had went through the same mental hell experience for nearly 6 months and still having mental issues such such being suicidal but definitely I am better than before , have faith in your mom ,she will get better as time goes .
@@melvyncarrot4741 I feel like my mom is going to get better too
@@melvyncarrot4741 my aunt forced her to take it then acts like a victim and even tried to get rid of my mom she should be in federal prison
@@animallover8779 you're not alone .
@@animallover8779 Can you tell me please how many days of the antibiotic did you mom take? I was prescribed with this drug for 5 días and i am afraid.
I took it. My ankle hurt.
Every American needs to report their side effects
The doctors told me I am crazy and the meds are safe. I was told to stop thinking.
Where do i report it
@@JolinHard With the FDA. Google "FDA adverse event reporting."
I can't take it, it messed with my head too, but first time I watched this video
I had a one antibiotic pill given to me in hospital. It was a gel cap yellow and black or green. I could feel it work within me. I picked up my filled prescription. I was in a solid circular pill form. It was the color of red clay. It had no where near the potency of the pill given to me in the hospital... Who can test the pills are truly made by ingredients to do what they claim to be? Who is holding companies to be accountabe that each drug formula is correctly made, the right potency, and safe to consume? .
ITIS NOT JUST THE FLOROQUINONES! I get this awful reaction from Flagyl/metronidazole and from Keflex/cephalexin. It’s as though every last endorphin has been sucked out of my body. I want to die. I had muscle cramps in the middle of the night so bad that I almost went to emergency except that I had muscle relaxers around to help me through it, Flagyl has been on my “allergy” list since my 20s. Keflex is going on the list immediately.
same here to flagyl and cipro. I used 3 weeks of cipro then 4 tablets of Bactrim 4 days ago , then started to have extreme cold feet symptoms and stopped all medications now, how long Cipro/Bactrim Cold feet effect should last :(. I have read that these Floxies can affect nerves and cause damage! Been one month out and still getting tingling and cold feet :(.
what do you take for uti's that is safe?
I’m sorry are you did you still feeling the muscle cramps if you recover . I’m like you bro tell me please 🙏
@@albgele yes, I recovered when I stopped the medication.
My doctor just change to ciprofloaxin my antibiotics yesterday
Made me depressed and mood swings were awful thought about suicide 😢
This strong meds most likely caused a disruption in the microbiome in our gut that control your mood…meaning depression and anxiety…that medication it too strong for the gut and if you don’t know that it interferes with your gut microbiome…it will have these side affects. Anyone that has taken this…go and get your gut microbiome checked…you owe it to yourself. Your gut is 85% of who you are and everything about you is lives in your gut. Please people go and check to see what this drug did your your microbiome and maybe can reverse the symptoms. These meds are too strong for the gut to handle.🙏🏾
the real problem is we are using old medicines, 1. because they are used against bacteria that have now evolved and are capable to become resistant to all current production antibiotics, and 2. because of the severe side effects all of them cause. It is unthinkable and not tolerable that we use 40 years old medicines in 2023 when it would be possible to develop drugs that cause fewer side effects and less severe ones too by being more effective and safe. There are a lot of alternatives to develop: new antibiotics, phages, vaccines, peptides and enzymes, monoclonal therapy (it is just a matter of scaling it to make it less expensive), quorum sensing inhibitors. None of these solutions are developed because, unlike antidepressants that are taken indefinitely, drugs to cure infections are taken for a week or so and this makes less profit for pharmaceutical industries, and since it costs a lot to develop a new drug it is not economically convenient. If this wasn't enough, any time we are so lucky to get a new antibiotic for hospital use only, doctors limit its usage as much as possible to avoid increasing bacterial drug resistance which further limits demand and profits. It is an economic problem. Maybe I'm pessimistic but I think we will need a lot of deaths by superbugs or side effects to increase the demand for new drugs and make it economically convenient to develop them and produce them, this is how stupid we are as human beings! And please do not take antibiotics for a flu because they do not work against viruses, and please take them for the entire duration of the cure as indicated by your doctor because taking them for less and with no reason further increases resistance and makes them increasingly less effective starting from the evil bacteria in your body and then for everyone else too. I'm so angry and I hate everything about the current antibiotic situation
Cipro ruined my life, took it in March 2019 :/
Sorry.
For how long and what symptoms or what did it left you with??
I took along with metro in March 2020. I has ruined my life too.
Well shit. I been taking these for a few days on what they think was a prostate infection.. But all symptoms went away the night after I started these.. Now I feel tinder sensation around that area a day after I had no signs or symptoms of what I was having..
They did the same to my husband in 2013, for a swollen prostate. He took the Cipro for 3 weeks and was also catheterized because of the swelling for 7 weeks. Unfortunately, I was the unhappy recipient of reactions to his taking this powerful antibiotic and ended up with a pelvic prolapse 2 months later. I had surgical repair 8 months later, and a month after that our daughter contracted Shingles in her inner ear which resulted in Mastoiditis and was prescribed Cipro. Within 2 months, I suffered a second prolapse. requiring another surgery. Since then, my husband and daughter have shown signs of suffering cognitive problems. As for me, I now suffer from Neuropathy in my legs and feet, arthritis, Fibromyalgia, gum recession and the roots of my teeth are dissolving, along with floaters in my vision which have nothing to do with my eyes, but is something affected in my brain. These Fluoride antibiotics are a menace to anyone taking them or anyone coming in general contact with them.
Oh gosh. I read a lot about levaquin before starting it snd what the drug warning says is to continue your prescribed dose unless you start to feel side effects and if you feel side effects then to stop it completely. Also consider taking magnesium, then inositol hexanicotinate (known as “no flush niacin”) because those two will help your muscles and mitochondria recover from the antibiotic damage
The niacin supports mitochondrial function and magnesium is for muscles. For niacin you can take it as inositol hexanicotinate and take 500 to 1000mg daily, anything under 1500mg daily is safe. But that’s what I’ve been taking for a while at least to make sure I stay healthy
I too took Cipro 5 days back and I got diarrhea up to now
Maybe it's a new formula? The old side effects were in the Achilles tendons.
I had a severe allergic reaction to CIPRO in the hospital for an ear infection . My dr there said it was not anything unusual , its just that some people get a reaction she called RedMan Syndrome !!!! omg what a liar . I had to have Benadryl . and then she wanted to give me more of it ! Are these Drs insane or what ? That they cant tell if someone breaking out with burning itching and later hives all over is allergic to the medicine ? So allergic reaction s are now called redman syndrome ?! why is that ? maybe because big pharma makes too much money
I was given cypro during cancer surgery and developed DRESS syndrome almost killed me. When I look back at my time in hospital I am glad the window in my room could not open. Nasty nasty drug
jk....dry ginger powder and mix it with fresh yellow lemon juice ( not bottle juice.. a real yellow lemon fruit )....eat this mixture .....and take nap for 1 hour.....all brain/nerves system..will work...great again....no more brain fog....thankyou....
I take ciprodiazole component metronidazole 500mg and Ciprofloxacin 500mg and im a smoker and addictive of coffee but I didn't fell and experience what they said in this video it's normal for me just got a little weaken dont be afraid
Why did you take these drugs.? The same combination was prescribed for me.
But unfortunately I got peripheral neuropathy with stabbing pains, eczema and tinnitus. Still having flare ups. I was prescribed on March 2020.
@@gaurabshakya485 how do you feel now?

@@gaurabshakya485 I am sorry bro i wish you speedy recovery.. I am also have said effects like muscle weakness twitching on all muscle I think it’s neuropathy I don’t know but I don’t have any idea about it I will take magnesium because it’s good for muscle weakness and for sleeping good and anxiety and panic effects
Why the fuck is this being given are they crazy how about don't give these drugs at all
