Hi dear..high liver enzymes is because of metabolism of ciprofloxacin in our body..process of removing involves liver..that cuses elevation but it will be for some time..within a few days it will come down normal..it's purely because of medicine..once you stop it..all will be well so be relax..meanwhile avoid high protein diet to reduce load on liver..take fluids..hope its helpful..thanks Dr.Sohil
