To evaluate the relationship between ciprofloxacin injection and drug-induced pulmonary hypertension in a tertiary care center.
Data were collected from the medical records of patients who have received an oral ciprofloxacin injection from the first month of their stay at a tertiary care center in the United States (2023). All patients were given a single intravenous (IV) ciprofloxacin injection. The median dose of ciprofloxacin injection was 500 mg and the median dose of the drug was 1,000 mg/day. The median number of doses of ciprofloxacin injection and the median number of ciprofloxacin injection-related adverse events were 14 and 8, respectively.
A total of 12,534 patients were included in the analysis of the primary analysis, including 18,927 who were received ciprofloxacin injection and 1,988 who received no ciprofloxacin injection. There were a total of 787 patients who were administered the drug and an additional 992 patients received an additional 12,534 doses of ciprofloxacin injection. The median duration of ciprofloxacin injection was 21 days. The median number of doses of ciprofloxacin injection-related adverse events was 6 and 1,521,943,638. Of the patients receiving ciprofloxacin injection, 8,038 (37.6%) developed a pulmonary edema while the median number of doses of ciprofloxacin injection-related adverse events was 1. The median time to pulmonary edema was 8.8 days for the ciprofloxacin injection group and 3.4 days for the drug group. The median time to pulmonary edema was 5.3 days for the ciprofloxacin injection group and 2.4 days for the drug group.
In the first month of ciprofloxacin injection, the median ciprofloxacin injection-related adverse events were more commonly observed for the ciprofloxacin injection group than for the other groups, and these adverse events were significantly higher in the ciprofloxacin injection group than in the other groups. These results suggest that the use of ciprofloxacin injection in a tertiary care center can be beneficial for patients with pulmonary edema who are receiving a single intravenous ciprofloxacin injection.

Ciprofloxacin and Other Antibiotics
If you have or ever have a medical problem that you may not realize is related to your medication, then Ciprofloxacin is a drug that is used to treat infections caused by bacteria. It is also used to treat certain types of bacterial infections. The drug is usually given to children between the ages of 8 and 18, but it is also commonly used to treat certain types of pneumonia. Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone, which means that it is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. Ciprofloxacin is available as a capsule and tablet, but it can also be given by injection.
Fluoroquinolones are powerful antibiotics that work by killing or stopping the growth of bacteria. They are commonly used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. Ciprofloxacin is usually given to children between the ages of 8 and 18, but it is also commonly used to treat certain types of pneumonia. Ciprofloxacin is available in both generic and brand name.
Ciprofloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that is used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria in the body, making the immune system more effective, and making the immune system more likely to attack other organisms.
When a drug is taken by mouth, the body’s immune system attacks the body’s cells to kill them. It also kills other organisms, which can lead to infections.

Ciprofloxacin: Antibiotics (Quinolone antibiotics)
Tinidazole : Antiprotozoals
Ciprofloxacin + Tinidazole effectively manages infection, where ciprofloxacin works by killing bacteria that cause infections. It only works with specific strains of bacteria. Tinidazole works by killing the parasites and anaerobic bacteria that are responsible for causing infections by damaging their DNA.
