Ciprofloxacin
Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic medication used to treat bacterial infections by stopping bacteria from multiplying. It is effective against infections of the urinary tract, respiratory system, skin, and other areas. Ciprofloxacin works by targeting the bacteria's DNA, preventing them from reproducing and helping the body's immune system eliminate the infection. It is usually taken orally as a tablet, but can also be given intravenously. Like all antibiotics, it should be used as prescribed by a healthcare professional to ensure effectiveness and to reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance.
