Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic that is used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. It belongs to a class of antibiotics known as fluoroquinolones and works by stopping the growth of bacteria.
Ciplox 500 is commonly prescribed to treat urinary tract infections (UTIs). It's really good at fighting a certain group of harmful bacteria responsible for causing UTIs called "gram-negative bacilli." These bacteria include some common ones like e. coli, salmonella, shigella, and neisseria.
Ciplox 500 contains ciprofloxacin, an antibiotic that combats bacterial infections by disrupting the bacteria's ability to replicate. It targets essential enzymes in the bacteria responsible for twisting and separating their DNA strands.
By blocking these enzymes, Ciplox 500 prevents DNA replication, hindering the bacteria's growth and reproduction. As a result, the infection weakens, making it easier for the body's immune system to fight and eliminate the UTI causing bacteria.
Ciplox contains the active ingredient ciprofloxacin. When taken in tablet form, it comes in three doses of 250mg, 500mg, and 750mg. The lower dose of 250mg is usually prescribed for mild bacterial infections. The 500mg dose is what’s usually prescribed for urinary tract infections like cystitis, urethritis, and bacterial prostatitis.
Ciplox 750mg is used in complicated upper urinary tract infections involving the kidneys (like pyelonephritis) and other complicated bacterial infections.

Your doctor will specify the exact dosage and instructions for you to take Ciplox 500. It can be taken with or without food, but it's usually recommended to take it at the same time(s) each day to help you remember to take it regularly.
If you take antacids or supplements containing calcium, magnesium, or aluminum, it's best to take them at least two hours before or six hours after taking Ciplox 500 to avoid interactions.
The typical duration of treatment with Ciplox 500 for a urinary tract infection (UTI) is usually 3 days.
However, the exact duration of treatment can differ based on the type and severity of the UTI, and how you react to the treatment. Consult our doctors to know more about how long it will take to treat your UTI.
Since it is usually a short course treatment of 3-7 days, keeping up with the dosing regimen is comparatively easier than other long-term treatments which may require you to take UTI medication for about 2 weeks or more.
However, if you forget to take Ciplox 500, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for you to take your next day’s dose, skip taking the missed one and extend your course for another day by taking the missed pill then.
If you skip more than 2 doses, contact your doctor as you may have to repeat your course. As with other antibiotics it is crucial to finish the entire course even if your condition gets better. Stopping Ciplox 500 too early could run you the risk of reinfection or cause the bacteria to become resistant to antibiotics
