Hello,
If you are getting side-effects with Ciprofloxacin then you should stop it immediately. You should consult your physician for an alternative medicine.
Cephalosporin s also work well in UTI. You can discuss this with your physician. You should also take syrup alkasol which increases the alkalinity of the urine. You should also increase your water intake. You can take cranberry juice which helps to prevent UTI.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
