Don't ever take this drug! It is a crime it is on the market! Still dealing with heavy pulse, lightheadedness, joint pain, autoimmune issues after 500 days. This drug is toxic to your body and will damage your CNS.

I will never take cipro again. I have taken cipro multiple times a year, for years, due to chronic UTIs. None of my doctors mentioned any negative side effects to me.
