Has anyone taken Ciprofloxacin for pseudomonas? How did it go?

@rozie83 I need to rely on Youtube to get details on just about anything. Doctors do not have time to spend on this with patients so we have no other choice other than do our own research on things like side effects, etc.

@picartist You can be proactive on this issue! Cipro is commonly prescribed for pseudomonas, but it is not clear how effective the drug is for that infection. Please ask your doctor if sensitivity testing was performed. My pseudomonas didn't respond to three rounds of antibiotics - cipro was one of them. It wasn't until we got to inhaled tobramycin that I licked it.
Sometimes, we just have to be pushy.
