It's a white pill blank on one side and has p500 on the other side ## Hi Ashley, *A white oval pill with a "P" on one side and "500" on the other reportedly contains 500mgs of Ciprofloxacin; used for treating infections. *A pink oval pill with "P500" on one side and blank on the other reportedly contains 500mgs of Acetaminophen + 100mgs of Propoxyphene napsylate; taken for pain relief. I understand that the description is slightly off, but unfortunately these are the two closest possibilities I could locate here. The pink pill described above is said to have been manufactured by Pliva. Because the imprint is identical it may be a good idea to contact the manufacturer directly just to see if they've ever changed the color of this specific tablet to white. ...

I have 2 prescriptions, cipro 500mg was rx’d for UTI, went somewhere else this time and the rx says cipro 250 HCL also for UTI. Is HCL in all cipro? ## Hello, Sue! How are you? Yes, the full name of it is actually Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride, they just don't always include that abbreviation on the prescription label.

I recently was put on ciprofloxacin 500mg twice daily for 14 days for a possible prostate infection. Starting at the end of day 4 I started to get some neck stiffness/soreness. It is now day 5, and the soreness came back about 2 hours into the day. I've also gotten what I can only describe is some cramp-like pain in my back along my spine. The neck pain is pretty consistent, but the back pain is pretty few and far between. Any thoughts? Anything I should be worried about? ## Do not take this antibiotic. Google cipro side effects, or getting "floxed". It happened to me last yr. Crazy stuff Definitely get a different medicine ## I agree! Coprocessor is known for these side effects and they can be Permanant! I'm surprised it's still available? It also causes eye problem...

I was prescribed cipro to treat a uti. I stopped taking it after 3 days due to tendinitis symptoms. Today, 2 days after I stopped taking cipro I noticed that all of my fingernails on both hands are dark pink. Could this be another side effect such as kidney damage? ## Hello, KM! How are you? Some antibiotics can cause a discoloration of the nails, it's usually nothing to worry about and will eventually go away on its own. However, it wouldn't hurt to have it checked out by your doctor, to be safe. Other side effects as listed by the FDA may include nausea, dizziness, diarrhea and non-allergic skin rash. Are there any other questions or concerns?

My Son is given this tablet for diarrhea. He immediately developed rashes all over the body and suffered for almost a week. Now he is suffering from flu. He is prescribed with wikoryl and clavam 65 (Amoxycillin). will the allergy for Ciprofloxacin will have allergy to amoxycillin also?

Ordered from Canada pharmacy that I have used before, however these appear to have shipped from India. Tablets are 500mg, oval shape, orange and scored on one side with no imprint. Ten per blister pack. Back of blister pack shows Ciproks 500 and manufactured for Combitic Global. Are these legitimate? ## Hello, Ellen! How are you? Without testing them, I can't say with certainty, but that is what they are said to contain. It is an antibiotic that's used to treat or prevent infections and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Did this medicine work? I ordered the same thing, and am now concerned I have been taken.

I am a 30-year-old active and healthy male. I was diagnosed with prostatitis and prescribed Cipro for four weeks. My prostatitis symptoms have gone away but I'm still having side effects from the Cipro. I am having bad leg pain in my knees calves and thighs. I am also having pain in my knees and ankles. I stopped taking the Cipro four days ago and I feel like my legs are getting worse. I went for a walk around the block and it feels like I ran a marathon.

I need some help. I have a kidney infection. I have been on methadone for 18 years. I have been told that you can't mix the two together. They said it would put me in withdrawal as it would kill the methadone in me. If anyone knows about this I would appreciate it very much. ## I would also like to know if you can take Methadone and Ciprofloxacin mixed together? ## What kinds of pharmaceutical drugs cannot be mixed with ciprofloxacin? ## Can I take ciprofloxacin if I have kidney stones? ## I am also on methadone but I only take 5 mg a day which is nothing. If you take a higher dose I would probably not take ciprofloxacin, but if you're on a pretty low dose it's fine. I am on Cipro about every two months because of UTIs.

Is ciprofloxacin available over the counter in Mexico? It's my antibiotic of choice for my semi-frequent UTIs, and I would like to start keeping a small stock on hand so that I don't have to take it to the gyno every single time. I know someone out there knows what I'm talking about. Thanks. ## I am in the same boat as you and I just ordered a Cipro online. It came from India and I'm trying to find out if it is the same as what the doctor prescribes. it is orange in color not white. But an answer to your question yes I am sure they carry them in Mexico so stock up because I understand what a pain it is to have to go to the doctor every time :) good luck
