Re: Amy/Visit to Orthopedic Surgeon

Hi Leonie. Cipro is an antibiotic - I think it's in the quinolone

family (?). I took it several years ago, but did not have any problem

.... or now that I think of it, perhaps this DID cause some of my

problems.... Anyway, there are apparently a good number of reports from

people who have a problem with this drug.

I'm not knowledgeable about this. When I google 'Cipro' , all kinds of

links for lawyers pop up. There's a whole lotta litigation going on.

Here's an article

Oh, also, Cipro was originally promoted to protect you from anthrax

exposure.
