They gave me ciprofloxacin for about 4 days without knowing after surgery. Every day in, my ADHD symptoms got worse, my psych medication was less effective and my pain levels increased to a point I noted down 10/10 in my notebook + that page looks like I am a mad lady having a total breakdown.
One and a half day later, after I got switched to another class of antibiotics my pain levels dropped to 3-4/10 and I could focus better. This happened suddenly, like someone flipped a switch in my head.
On an earlier occasion I was making detailed suicide plans the second week in on ciprofloxacin, which resolved itself shortly after discontinuation.
It has not caused permanent damage to me but this I have to list it as "allergy" for doctors not to prescribe it to me. I had problems doctors not believing the mental issues that this antibiotic cause.
