Overview
Xpro (500mg) 10 Tablets is a prescription antibiotic medicine containing ciprofloxacin 500mg. Ciprofloxacin belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of antibacterial medicines and is used for selected infections caused by susceptible bacteria. It is not a painkiller, fever reducer, or general cold and flu medicine, even though bacterial infections may sometimes cause fever, body aches, or discomfort.
This product should be used only when prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional. The need for ciprofloxacin depends on the suspected or confirmed bacteria, infection site, severity, local resistance patterns, allergy history, kidney function, pregnancy or breastfeeding status, and other medicines being taken. Unnecessary antibiotic use can increase the risk of side effects and antimicrobial resistance.
