Cipro May Cause Serious Nerve and Tendon Injuries

Cipro (Ciprofloxacin hydrochloride) is an antibiotic prescription medication that doctors have used to treat various medical concerns, including infections of the respiratory system, stomach, joints, and urinary tract.  The Federal Food & Drug Administration has recently red-flagged Cipro due to the severe side-effects.  Cipro may cause serious nerve and tendon injuries, including Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis, which is a life-threatening skin disease.  Symptoms of Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis include skin rashes, pain, fever, and skin lesions that spread quickly.  If you notice ANY of these symptoms, contact your physician immediately to report the concern.  Consumers who experience dangerous side effects from taking Cipro should contact a drug recall injury lawyer immediately.

In July 2008, the FDA issued warnings that Cipro is linked to tendon rupture and increased risk of tendinitis.  This warning has been issued to the following Cipro-type drugs:  Cipro XR, Proquin, Levaquin, Floxin, Factive, and Noroixin.  Consumers must also be aware that these drugs come under a myriad of other generic names.  Tendon reptures associated with Cirpo are occuring in the legs and feet, and elbows.  Victims of Cipro related injuries are urged to report them immidiately to a doctor and seek independent evaluation to determine the extent of the personal injuries.

Did you take the drug Cipro and sustain injuries?  Contact a Cipro Injury Lawyer and get the consumer advocates at Schultz Legal Group on your side.  You don't have to be a part of the Cipro Class Action lawsuit and receive pennies for your injuries.  Our Missouri Cipro Injury Lawyers can file a Cipro Drug Defect Claim on your behalf, thus obtaining much greater compensation for your Cipro related injuries.
