Pharmacy - Ciprofloxacin


Expert: Barbara Judge - 3/4/2009

Question
Hiya i have been taking these antibiotics for 6days now and the course is 10days and i was wondering if i was able to drink alcohol on this antibiotics there called CIPROFLOXACIN it doesnt say anything in the leaflet they give me. thanks

Answer
    There are no specific documented interactions between Ciprofloxacin and alcohol.  However, you should keep in mind that if you are sick enough to require treatment with an antibiotic it is probably in your best interests to minimize your alcohol intake or avoid it if possible until your infection has resolved itself.

Thanks

Barb Judge
