Have Stomach Pain As A Result Of Taking Cipro
I was given Cipro for a UTI and after 2 day's starting having bad stomach pains and gas. Stopped taking it but still have some pain on my left side. Also, still have some urinary tract symptom's and read that Cipro can cause the same symptoms as a UTI.

Hello.
Thank you for the query.
Your symptoms are caused by antibiotic intake due to intestinal bacteria eradication. This bacteria normaly cover intestines are extremely important for proper intestines function.
Lac of this bscteria can result with abdominal pain.
You may also have stomach irritation by antibiotic.
I suggest you to start probiotic intake. If it wont help in few days, please consult your doctor.
Hope this will help.
