I was prescribed ciprofloxacin for five days by my dentist and on the forth day I suddenly developed severe lower back pain, and generalized aches and pain which have lasted for past month and only gradually beginning to subside. I only suspected the ciproxin when a friend was taking it for chest infection and developed pain in Achilles tendon and is finding it difficult to walk.

Cipro not for most dental problems.... FDA black box warning on all quinnalone drugs.... high risk for tendon and ligament damage! Course of last resort! Be careful
