Contact your doctor immediately if you experience severe or persistent vertigo after starting Cipro. This includes dizziness that significantly impacts your balance or daily activities. Don’t wait for symptoms to subside; early intervention is key.
Hearing Problems and Other Neurological Symptoms
Report any new or worsening hearing loss, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), or changes in your vision to your physician. These could indicate serious complications requiring prompt medical evaluation. Similarly, any unexplained numbness, weakness, or changes in coordination should be reported immediately. These symptoms might suggest neurological involvement.
Severe Allergic Reactions
Seek immediate emergency care if you experience signs of a severe allergic reaction such as difficulty breathing, swelling of your face, lips, or tongue (angioedema), or hives. These are life-threatening conditions requiring immediate treatment. Do not hesitate to call emergency services.
Persistent or Worsening Symptoms
Even if your vertigo seems to improve, contact your doctor if symptoms return or worsen. This is particularly important if you experience these symptoms more than a few days after stopping the medication. Regular follow-up can ensure early detection of any lingering side effects.
