This is a miracle drug! My Doctor diagnosed that I had a significant bacterial UTI and prescibed Ciprofloxacin 500mg two times per day for seven days. I was having severe burning pain when urinating. After taking just one tablet and within just 6 hours the burning pain stopped. I have had NO side effects whatsoever.
