When to Consult a Doctor: Recognizing Serious Symptoms and Seeking Help

Experience persistent or worsening symptoms after starting Ciprofloxacin treatment. Contact your doctor immediately if you develop a severe allergic reaction, characterized by swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, difficulty breathing, or hives.

Severe Allergic Reactions Require Immediate Attention

Seek immediate medical help if you experience symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, dizziness, or lightheadedness. These may indicate a serious adverse reaction. Report any new or worsening tendon pain, particularly in your Achilles tendon. This can be a sign of tendon rupture.

Other Serious Side Effects

Contact your physician if you notice changes in your vision, including blurred vision or double vision. Similarly, report any signs of nerve damage, such as numbness, tingling, or weakness in your extremities. These can be indications of serious complications.

Always inform your doctor about all medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and supplements, to minimize potential drug interactions. Your doctor will provide tailored advice and monitor your progress during treatment.
