Hi, your history suggest of allergy to ciprofloxacin,
I would suggest
1) TO STOP THE DRUG IMMEDIATELY.
2) Consult your physician and let him know that you are allergic towards the drug, and switch over to other medications.
3) keep in mind that you may be allergic to all the drugs that belong to fluroquinolones.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
