Prescribed by ER Dr.for me a 73 yr old male and was having minor cramping but on my 5th day i had a bowel movement that was small and thick with blood and clots....went back to ER and spent the nite and I asked for new prescription of amoxicillin. My 2nd day on amox gave me vast improvement and bleeding seems to have subsided. I just read that US FDA had a 2019 warning about the side effects of Pico (google it) and they gave a warning use by seniors. BEWARE of the side effects that I agree are dangerous and would recommend a penicillin family alternative as they have less adverse reactions and less restrictions on diet........I DO NOT RECOMMEND this Product My prescription was for 7 days and longer than this can be life threatening. If you take this med I would make sure to eat 1st or during a meal....pills are too large for me to swallow.

This is a miracle drug! My Doctor diagnosed that I had a significant bacterial UTI and prescibed Ciprofloxacin 500mg two times per day for seven days. I was having severe burning pain when urinating. After taking just one tablet and within just 6 hours the burning pain stopped. I have had NO side effects whatsoever.

I am on Ciprofloxacin for 7 days and currently on my 2nd last day of using them, it feels like the infection is slowly coming back. It has helped with my right flank pain and the frequent urination. Only side effects are Lower back pain & Leg pain.

Cipro makes me very lethargic which I thought was unusual considering it is not listed in the side effects. However, it is worth it. The pain went away almost immediately.

The medicine worked in two days, but I developed a weakness in my thumbs and could not hold anything in my hand. Fortunately I was out of work for a few days and thought I had left the medication at work, and did not get to take the full dose before I found out that many people had lost complete use of their limbs from using this medication. After about a week of not taking the drug, the use of my thumbs came back. I am convinced that if I had continued on the medication, it would have done much more damage. My doctor said, that if 95% of the patients benefit from the medication, it is considered safe and for me it did cure the UTI, but look at the other damage it was about to do. I would never take it again.
