Cipro effect on gear?

[andymahn]

I have bronchitis and a sinus infection- I beleive started from allergies! Anyway, I have some Cipro and was wondering if it will effect my gear.

I am taking 250 Test E per week. I just want to know if it will weaken the gear or mess up my cycle?

It won't mess it up. Although antibiotics will make you appear flat and they tend to make me feel a little weaker. I usually use avelox and the z-paks. Just make sure you eat a lot and get a lot of fluids.

Thanks! I would use a z pack but dont have any right now. I just have the Cipro. My doctor was booked up till next week- I guess everyone is getting something right now!

could be totally wrong here but i think i heard that cipro can hurt ur joints so that may be something to look into, better be safe than sorry

I'd wait a little or find another drug before taking something as strong as Cipro.

Cipro is bad news for tendons.
http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/cipro_wcp.htm
'Tendon Effects: Ruptures of the shoulder, hand, Achilles tendon or other tendons that required surgical repair or resulted in prolonged disability have been reported in patients receiving quinolones, including ciprofloxacin. Post-marketing surveillance reports indicate that this risk may be increased in patients receiving concomitant corticosteroids, especially the elderly. Ciprofloxacin should be discontinued if the patient experiences pain, inflammation, or rupture of a tendon. Patients should rest and refrain from exercise until the diagnosis of tendinitis or tendon rupture has been excluded. Tendon rupture can occur during or after therapy with quinolones, including ciprofloxacin.'


If you are going to use it be sure and do something to increase collagen synthisis, (hgh,eq, or deca) and avoid maximal loads for a while.

I ended up getting Biaxin from the doctor- so i didnt take the cipro. Biaxin is basically the same antibiotic in a z pak so it should be fine. I thought too that cipro was too strong. What a pain in the ass getting bronchitis and a sinus infection on my 3rd week into cycle!

Thanx everyone for the great advice- much appreciated!
