Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
While on vacation, I got a swimmer's ear, causing three days of discomfort. Fortunately, my wife has Cipro 500mg, a 5-day regimen. Can it treat my possible ear infection? No fever or ear discharge.
Answered by Dr. Vidit Rohit Shah
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Certainly, Cipro tablets are a suitable antibiotic for treating ear infections. Please take one tablet in the morning after breakfast and another one after dinner consistently for a duration of five days. It's crucial to avoid water from entering your ear for at least one week, refrain from any manipulation of the ear, and reduce your consumption of cold beverages and water.
Thanks
