I took Ciprodex 500 for 2.5 days (5 tabs in total) and had such a severe reaction I actually went to my local emergency. I was feeling terribly nauseated, noticed my heart rate slowing down (which was really scary), no energy and abdominal discomfort. I've never felt like that on antibiotics. The hospital ran general blood tests, an EKG and an x-ray, all which came up negative (which is good but begs the question if they were actually the right tests at all to determine if I experienced some form of reaction to the drug). I haven't taken the drug now for 5 days and am feeling pretty awful. Nauseated, dizzy, weird feeling in my throat and abdominal discomfort not to mention no energy to do anything but lie in bed. This drug is hazardous. Does anyone know how long it would take for the side effects to subside? Any other recommendations to speed the healing process?? Many thanks.
