However, these medications are prescribed only to those patients who have no alternative treatment options available.

No. Ciprofloxacin can’t be bought over the counter or ordered online. This medication is available only on a doctor’s prescription. However, you can easily get a Ciprofloxacin prescription online by consulting a licensed healthcare provider. If you’re looking to get antibiotics for a UTI without seeing a doctor in person, visit our virtual care today.
How does Ciprofloxacin work?
Ciprofloxacin prevents the growth of bacteria in the human body by inhibiting the action of important bacterial enzymes, topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV. Please note that generic Cipro does not treat viral infections, such as the common cold, influenza (flu), or COVID-19.
How to take Ciprofloxacin?
This medication should be taken as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Oral dosage form (tablets) should be consumed via mouth with water, while the oral suspension should be made as mentioned on the leaflet provided with the medication. Infusion of Cipro is only administered when the other two dosage forms cannot be administered.
