Pharmacological properties
Pharmacokinetics
Suction
After oral administration, ciprofloxacin is rapidly absorbed from the upper small intestine, reaching maximum serum concentration (Cmax) after 60-90 minutes. Eating does not affect the degree of absorption of the drug. After taking a single dose of 250 mg and 500 mg, Cmax is 0.8-2.0 mg/l and 1.5-2.9 mg/l, respectively. Absolute bioavailability is 70-80%. Cmax has a linear dependence on the dose taken.
Distribution
The volume of distribution of ciprofloxacin is 2-3 l/kg, which ensures uniform distribution throughout organs and tissues. Since the degree of binding to plasma proteins is only 20-30% and most of the drug is present in the blood plasma in non-ionized form, almost the entire dose taken is distributed unbound into the extravascular space.
Metabolism/Excretion
Metabolized in the liver. The half-life is 3-5 hours. It is mainly excreted unchanged in the urine, partially in the form of metabolites. About 10% is excreted through the intestines, about 1% of ciprofloxacin is excreted in the bile.
Pharmacokinetics in special groups of patients. The results of pharmacokinetic studies of ciprofloxacin in elderly patients indicate only a slight prolongation of the half-life. These differences in pharmacokinetics are not clinically significant .
Kidney failure. In patients with reduced renal function, the half-life of ciprofloxacin is slightly longer. In some cases, dosage adjustment may be required .
Liver failure. In preliminary studies involving patients with stable liver cirrhosis, no significant changes in the pharmacokinetic parameters of ciprofloxacin were identified. However, the pharmacokinetics of ciprofloxacin in patients with acute liver failure has not been fully studied.
Interdrug interactions. If you take a ciprofloxacin tablet with food, the absorption of the drug is slowed down, resulting in the maximum concentration of ciprofloxacin in the blood being reached after almost 2 hours, and not after 1 hour. At the same time, the absorption of ciprofloxacin is generally not impaired. When combined with antacids containing magnesium or aluminum hydroxide, the bioavailability of ciprofloxacin may be reduced by 90% .
Ciprofloxacin is contraindicated for use in patients receiving tizanidine .
Ciprofloxacin reduces the clearance of theophylline, which may lead to increased serum theophylline concentrations and an increased risk of CNS disorders and other adverse reactions. Ciprofloxacin also reduces the clearance of caffeine and inhibits the formation of its metabolite paraxanthine .
Pharmacodynamics
Mechanism of action. The bactericidal effect of ciprofloxacin is due to the inhibition of the enzymes topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV, which are necessary for replication, transcription, repair and recombination of bacterial DNA.
Mechanism of resistance development. Resistance to fluoroquinolones is predominantly associated with mutations in DNA gyrase genes, disruption of the permeability of the outer cell membrane of bacteria, or activation of efflux proteins, which lead to the removal of fluoroquinolones from the cell. In conditions in vitro Resistance to ciprofloxacin develops slowly through multistep mutations. The incidence of resistance to ciprofloxacin as a result of spontaneous mutations usually varies from< 10-9 до 1 x 10-6.
Cross resistance. There is no cross-resistance between ciprofloxacin and antimicrobial drugs of other classes.
Ciprofloxacin is active against most strains of the following bacteria, both under conditions in vitro, and in clinical practice for the treatment of infections.
Gram-positive bacteria:Enterococcus faecalis(only strains sensitive to vancomycin),Staphylococcus aureusAndStaphylococcusepidermidis (methicillin-sensitive strains only),Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Streptococcus pneumoniae (only strains sensitive to penicillin), Streptococcus pyogenes
Gram-negative bacteria:Campylobacter jejuni, Citrobacter koseri (diversus), Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter cloacae, Escherichia coli, Haemophilus influenzae, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Moraxella catarrhalis, Morganella morganii, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Proteus mirabilis, Proteus vulgaris, Providencia rettgeri, Providencia stuartii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhi, Serratia marcescens, Shigella boydii, Shigella dysenteriae, Shigella flexneri, Shigella sonnei.
The activity of ciprofloxacin against Bacillus anthracis was demonstrated under conditions in vitro and based on the use of serum drug levels as a surrogate marker .

Pregnancy and lactation
Epilepsy
- simultaneous use with tizanidine
Children and adolescents up to 18 years of age (with the exception of bronchopulmonary diseases associated with cystic fibrosis, as well as the prevention and treatment of pulmonary anthrax)
Drug interactions
Drugs that cause QT prolongation
Caution should be exercised during the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin, as well as other fluoroquinolones, in patients receiving drugs that cause prolongation of the QT interval (for example, class I A or class III antiarrhythmic drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, macrolides, antipsychotics) (see section "Special instructions" ").
Chelation formation
Concomitant use of tablet forms of ciprofloxacin and cation-containing drugs, mineral supplements containing calcium, magnesium, aluminum, iron, sucralfate, antacids, polymeric phosphate compounds (such as sevelamer, lanthanum carbonate) and drugs with a large buffer capacity (such as didanosine tablets) containing magnesium, aluminum or calcium, reduces the absorption of ciprofloxacin. In such cases, ciprofloxacin should be taken either 1-2 hours before or 4 hours after taking these drugs.
This restriction does not apply to drugs belonging to the class of histamine H2 receptor blockers.
Eating food and dairy products
The simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and dairy products or drinks fortified with minerals (for example, milk, yogurt, calcium-fortified orange juice) should be avoided as the absorption of ciprofloxacin may be reduced. However, calcium contained in other foods does not significantly affect the absorption of ciprofloxacin.
Omeprazole
With the combined use of ciprofloxacin and drugs containing omeprazole, a slight decrease in the maximum concentration of the drug in plasma and a decrease in the area under the pharmacokinetic concentration-time curve may be observed.
Theophylline
The simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and drugs containing theophylline may cause an undesirable increase in the concentration of theophylline in the blood plasma and, accordingly, the occurrence of theophylline-induced adverse events; in very rare cases, these adverse events can be life-threatening for the patient. If the simultaneous use of these two drugs is unavoidable, it is recommended to constantly monitor the concentration of theophylline in the blood plasma and, if necessary, reduce the dose of theophylline (see section "Special instructions", cytochrome P450).
Other xanthine derivatives
The simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and caffeine or pentoxifylline (oxpentifylline) may lead to an increase in the concentration of xanthine derivatives in the blood serum.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
The combination of very high doses of quinolones (DNA gyrase inhibitors) and some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (except acetylsalicylic acid) can provoke seizures.
Cyclosporine
With the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and drugs containing cyclosporine, a short-term transient increase in plasma creatinine concentration was observed. In such cases, it is necessary to determine the concentration of creatinine in the blood twice a week.
Oral hypoglycemic agents
With the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and oral hypoglycemic agents, mainly sulfonylureas (for example, glibenclamide, glimepiride), the development of hypoglycemia is presumably due to an increased effect of oral hypoglycemic agents (see section "Side effects").
Probenecid
Probenecid slows down the rate of excretion of ciprofloxacin by the kidneys. The simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and drugs containing probenecid leads to an increase in the concentration of ciprofloxacin in the blood plasma.
Phenytoin
With the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and phenytoin, a change (increase or decrease) in the content of phenytoin in the blood plasma was observed. To avoid a weakening of the anticonvulsant effect of phenytoin due to a decrease in its concentration, as well as to prevent adverse events associated with phenytoin overdose when discontinuing ciprofloxacin, it is recommended to monitor phenytoin therapy in patients taking both drugs, including determination of phenytoin plasma levels throughout the period of simultaneous use of both drugs and a short time after completion of combination therapy.
Methotrexate
With the simultaneous use of methotrexate and ciprofloxacin, the renal tubular transport of methotrexate may slow down, which may be accompanied by an increase in the concentration of methotrexate in the blood plasma. This may increase the likelihood of developing side effects of methotrexate. In this regard, patients receiving concomitant therapy with methotrexate and ciprofloxacin should be closely monitored.
Tizanidine
As a result of a clinical study involving healthy volunteers with the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and drugs containing tizanidine, an increase in the concentration of tizanidine in the blood serum was revealed: an increase in the maximum concentration (Cmax) by 7 times (from 4 to 21 times), an increase in AUC (area under pharmacokinetic concentration-time curve) by 10 times (from 6 to 24 times). An increase in tizanidine serum concentrations may cause a decrease in blood pressure and drowsiness. Therefore, the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and drugs containing tizanidine is contraindicated.
Duloxetine
Clinical studies have shown that the simultaneous use of duloxetine and potent inhibitors of the CYP450 1A2 isoenzyme (such as fluvoxamine) may lead to an increase in the AUC and Cmax of duloxetine. Although there is no clinical data on possible interactions with ciprofloxacin, the likelihood of such an interaction can be anticipated when ciprofloxacin and duloxetine are used concomitantly.
Ropinirole
The simultaneous use of ropinirole and ciprofloxacin, a moderate inhibitor of the CYP450 1A2 isoenzyme, leads to an increase in the Cmax and AUC of ropinirole by 60 and 84%, respectively. Monitor for adverse effects of ropinirole during coadministration with ciprofloxacin and for a short time after completion of combination therapy.
Lidocaine
In a study on healthy volunteers, it was found that the simultaneous use of drugs containing lidocaine and ciprofloxacin, a moderate inhibitor of the CYP450 1A2 isoenzyme, leads to a 22% decrease in the clearance of lidocaine when administered intravenously. Despite the good tolerability of lidocaine when used simultaneously with ciprofloxacin, increased side effects due to interaction are possible (see section "Special Instructions", Cytochrome P450).
Clozapine
With simultaneous use of clozapine and ciprofloxacin at a dose of 250 mg for 7 days, an increase in serum concentrations of clozapine and N-desmethylclozapine by 29% and 31%, respectively, was observed. The patient's condition should be monitored and, if necessary, the dosage regimen of clozapine should be adjusted during its combined use with ciprofloxacin and for a short time after completion of combination therapy (see section "Special Instructions", Cytochrome P450).
Sildenafil
With simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin at a dose of 500 mg and sildenafil at a dose of 50 mg in healthy volunteers, there was a 2-fold increase in Cmax and AUC of sildenafil. In this regard, the use of this combination is possible only after assessing the benefit/risk ratio.
Vitamin K antagonists
The combined use of ciprofloxacin and vitamin K antagonists (for example, warfarin, acenocoumarol, phenprocoumon, fluindone) may lead to an increase in their anticoagulant effect. The magnitude of this effect may vary depending on concomitant infections, age and general condition of the patient, so it is difficult to assess the effect of ciprofloxacin on increasing INR (international normalized ratio). MHO should be monitored frequently during concomitant use of ciprofloxacin and vitamin K antagonists, as well as for a short time after completion of combination therapy.
special instructions
When treating severe infections, staphylococcal infections and infections caused by anaerobic bacteria, ciprofloxacin should be used in combination with appropriate antibacterial agents.
Infections caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae
Genital tract infections
For genital infections suspected of being caused by strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae resistant to fluoroquinolones, information about local resistance to ciprofloxacin should be taken into account and the sensitivity of the pathogen should be confirmed by laboratory tests.
Heart disorders
Ciprofloxacin has an effect on prolongation of the QT interval (see section "Side effects"). Given that women have a longer average QT interval compared to men, they are more sensitive to drugs that cause QT prolongation. Elderly patients also have increased sensitivity to the effects of drugs that prolong the QT interval. Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in combination with drugs that prolong the QT interval (for example, class I A and III antiarrhythmic drugs, tricyclic antidepressants, macrolides and antipsychotic drugs) (see section "Interaction with other drugs"), or in patients with increased risk of QT prolongation or torsade de pointes (eg, congenital long QT syndrome, uncorrected electrolyte imbalance such as hypokalemia or hypomagnesemia, and heart disease such as heart failure, myocardial infarction, bradycardia).
Use in children
It was found that ciprofloxacin, like other drugs of this class, causes arthropathy of large joints in animals. When analyzing the current data on the safety of ciprofloxacin in children under 18 years of age, most of whom have cystic fibrosis, no connection has been established between cartilage or joint damage with the drug. It is not recommended to use ciprofloxacin in children for the treatment of diseases other than the treatment of complications of cystic fibrosis (in children 5 to 17 years of age) associated with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and for the treatment and prevention of pulmonary anthrax (after suspected or proven infection Bacillus anthracis).
Hypersensitivity
Sometimes, after taking the first dose of ciprofloxacin, hypersensitivity to the drug may develop (see section “Side effects”), including allergic reactions, which should be reported to your doctor immediately. In rare cases, after the first use, anaphylactic reactions up to anaphylactic shock may occur. In these cases, the use of the drug Cifran OD should be stopped immediately and appropriate treatment should be carried out.
Gastrointestinal tract
If severe and prolonged diarrhea occurs during or after treatment with ciprofloxacin, the diagnosis of pseudomembranous colitis should be excluded, which requires immediate discontinuation of the drug and the appointment of appropriate treatment (vancomycin orally at a dose of 250 mg 4 times a day). In this situation, the use of drugs that suppress intestinal motility is contraindicated.
Hepatobiliary system
Cases of liver necrosis and life-threatening liver failure have been reported with the use of ciprofloxacin. If you have the following signs of liver disease, such as anorexia, jaundice, dark urine, itching, painful abdomen, you should stop taking Cifran (see section “Side Effects”).
Patients taking the drug Cifran and who have had liver disease may experience a temporary increase in the activity of liver transaminases and alkaline phosphatase or cholestatic jaundice.
Musculoskeletal system
Patients with myasthenia gravis should use Cifran with caution, as exacerbation of symptoms is possible.
At the first signs of tendonitis (painful swelling in the joint area, inflammation), the use of the drug Cifran should be stopped and physical activity should be avoided, because There is a risk of tendon rupture, and consult a doctor.
When taking the drug Cifran, cases of tendonitis and tendon rupture (mainly the Achilles tendon), sometimes bilaterally, may occur within the first 48 hours after the start of therapy. Inflammation and rupture of the tendon may occur even several months after stopping treatment with Cifran. There is an increased risk of tendinopathy in elderly patients and in patients with tendon diseases who are concomitantly treated with corticosteroids.
The drug Cifran should be used with caution in patients with a history of tendon diseases associated with taking quinolones.
Nervous system
The drug Cifran, like other fluoroquinolones, can provoke convulsions and lower the seizure threshold. In patients with epilepsy and a history of central nervous system diseases (for example, a decrease in the seizure threshold, a history of seizures, cerebrovascular accidents, organic brain lesions or stroke) due to the risk of developing adverse reactions from the central nervous system, ciprofloxacin should be used only in cases when the expected clinical effect exceeds the possible risk of developing a side effect of the drug.
Cases of status epilepticus have been reported when using the drug Cifran (see section "Side effects"). If seizures occur, use of the drug should be discontinued. Mental reactions can occur even after the first use of fluoroquinolones, including the drug Cifran. In rare cases, depression or psychotic reactions may progress to suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts, including completed ones (see section "Side effects"). If the patient develops one of these reactions, you should stop taking Cifran and tell your doctor.
Cases of sensory or sensorimotor polyneuropathy, hypoesthesia, dysesthesia or weakness have been reported in patients taking fluoroquinolones, including Cifran. If symptoms such as pain, burning, tingling, numbness, or weakness occur, patients should inform their doctor before continuing to use the drug.
Skin
When taking the drug Cifran, a photosensitivity reaction may occur, so patients should avoid contact with direct sunlight and UV light. Treatment should be discontinued if symptoms of photosensitivity are observed (for example, changes in the skin reminiscent of sunburn, see section “Side effects”).
Cytochrome P450
It is known that ciprofloxacin is a moderate inhibitor of CYP 450 1A2 isoenzymes. Caution should be exercised when using the drug Tsifran simultaneously with drugs metabolized by these enzymes, such as tizanidine. theophylline, methylxanthine, caffeine, duloxetine, ropinirole, clozapine, olanzapine, since an increase in the concentration of these drugs in the blood serum, due to inhibition of their metabolism by ciprofloxacin, can cause specific adverse reactions.
To avoid the development of crystalluria, it is unacceptable to exceed the recommended daily dose; sufficient fluid intake and maintaining an acidic urine reaction are also necessary.
In conditions in vitro ciprofloxacin may interfere with bacteriological testing Mycobacterium tuberculosis, suppressing its growth, which can lead to false negative results when diagnosing this pathogen in patients taking the drug Cifran.
Features of the effect of the drug on the ability to drive a vehicle or potentially dangerous mechanisms.
During treatment, you should refrain from driving vehicles and servicing machines and mechanisms that require increased concentration and speed of psychomotor reactions, as adverse reactions such as dizziness, convulsions, and confusion are possible.
Overdose
Symptoms: dizziness, headache, fatigue, gastrointestinal disorders, liver and kidney dysfunction.
Treatment: gastric lavage, taking activated charcoal, antacids containing calcium and magnesium to reduce the absorption of ciprofloxacin, symptomatic therapy. A sufficient amount of fluid must be prescribed. By hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis, ciprofloxacin is removed from the body only in small quantities (less than 10%).

Cifran is an antibiotic produced by one of the largest pharmaceutical companies in India, Ranbaxy Laboratories Ltd.
The active ingredient in Cifran is ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (equivalent to ciprofloxacin 500 mg), which is used to treat bacterial infections.
Pharmachologic effect:
Ciprofloxacin belongs to a group of drugs called quinolones/fluoroquinolones. They inhibit DNA relaxation and inhibit DNA gyrase in sensitive organisms and contribute to the “breakage” of double-stranded DNA. Metabolized in the liver, half-life: 2-5 hours (in children), 3-5 hours (in adults). Excretion: urine (30-50%), feces (15-43%).
Indications for use for adults:
- bronchial infections;
- diseases of the ENT organs;
- toothache and gumboil (locally);
- typhoid fever caused by Salmonella typhoid;
- gonorrhea;
- eye infections;
- tuberculosis;
- bacterial diarrhea caused by E. coli, Campylobacter jeunii or various types of Shigella;
- kidney infections;
- sepsis;
- infections of joints and bones caused by Enterobacter cloacae, Serracia marcescens or Pseudomonas aeruginosa;
- infections of soft tissues and skin structure;
- anthrax.
Indications for use of "Cifran" for children:
- Treatment and prevention of anthrax.
- Complications caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in children aged 5 to 17 years with cystic fibrosis of the lungs.
Cifran is available as film-coated tablets in dosages of 250 mg and 500 mg, as eye drops and as a concentrate for infusion.
"Cifran": instructions for use during pregnancy and lactation
Most studies have not found an increased risk of birth defects when women took ciprofloxacin or other quinolone/fluoroquinolone antibiotics during the first trimester of pregnancy. Because these studies included mostly women taking ciprofloxacin for only 5-7 days, the effects of long-term use of Cifran are unknown. However, there was no increased risk of birth defects in a small number of infants exposed to longer periods of ciprofloxacin use.
Only a gynecologist who monitors a woman during pregnancy and breastfeeding can decide whether the benefits of Tsifran for the mother outweigh the possible danger of the drug for the fetus.
Several side effects may be associated with the use of Cifran. The most common ones include:
- nausea;
- headache;
- rash;
- redness of the skin (especially when in the sun). It is advisable to use sunscreen when going outside after taking Cifran;
- metallic taste in the mouth;
- vomiting;
- stomach ache;
- diarrhea.
More serious side effects (rare, but not excluded):
- Cramps.
- Fainting.
- Severe skin rashes.
- Damage to the liver, which is manifested by the following symptoms: jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), dark urine, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, pain in the right upper abdomen.
- Swelling of the tendons, especially in women over 60 years of age. Swelling, in turn, increases the likelihood of tendon rupture during physical activity. Swelling of the tendons may occur several months after stopping the use of Cifran.
- Although Cifran is used to treat infections caused by low white blood cell counts, it can itself reduce the number of white blood cells in the body. This leads to a deterioration in the functioning of the immune system and also increases the patient's susceptibility to infections.
- Photosensitivity (abnormally high sensitivity to sunlight).
- Worsening of symptoms in patients with psychiatric disorders. This may lead to thoughts of suicide.
Contraindications:
- Allergy to ciprofloxacin.
- Myasthenia gravis (autoimmune disease of the neuromuscular system).
- Epilepsy.
- Heart diseases.
- Kidney or liver diseases.
Should not be combined with the following drugs:
- Tizanidine is used to treat muscle spasticity. Threat: the risk of side effects indicated in the description of “Tsifran” (instructions for use) increases.
- Warfarin is a drug used in the treatment of bleeding disorders. Threat: increased risk of bleeding.
- Theophylline is used to open the airways in the treatment of asthma. Threat: simultaneous use of Theophylline and Tsifran can lead to convulsions, as well as heart rhythm disturbances.
- Sildenafil (Viagra) is a drug used in the treatment of erectile dysfunction. Threat: the level of sildenafil in the blood increases, side effects of Viagra are likely to occur.
- "Pentoxifylline-Teva" - used to improve peripheral circulation. Threat: Blood levels of this drug increase and the risk of side effects increases.
- Omeprazole is a drug that is used to kill Helicobacter Pylori and to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease. Threat: the level of “Cifran” in the blood decreases, thereby deteriorating the effectiveness of this drug.
- Calcium, magnesium or iron supplements (including in the form of effervescent tablets). Threat: the effectiveness of Tsifran is reduced.
- Antacids are medications that neutralize stomach acid. Threat: the effectiveness of Tsifran is reduced.
- Cifran tablets can increase the stimulating effect of caffeine.
note
Patients who are about to undergo surgery (including dental surgery) should warn the surgeon or anesthesiologist about taking Cifran. This medication may affect other medications used during surgery.
Although the drug is commonly used for certain bacterial infections, it is not always effective, so it is important that your doctor order tests to determine whether Cifran is appropriate. The instructions for use include not only a wide range of indications, but also numerous contraindications, so you should not self-medicate.
How to take "Cifran" for prostatitis and other diseases
"Cifran" tablets are often prescribed for the initial symptoms of prostatitis. It has an excellent spectrum of activity against uropathogens and quite a few intestinal bacteria living in the perineum react to this drug. About 80% of bacterial cases of prostatitis are caused by Escherichia coli, the remaining cases of inflammation of the prostate gland are mainly caused by bacteria from the genus Enterobacter, Klebsiella, Enterobacterium proteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa or staphylococci. Ciprofloxacin is effective against all of these bacteria.Unfortunately, it has little activity against anaerobic bacteria (chlamydia and mycoplasma), which allows pathogens to establish themselves in the prostate, and repeated courses of Cifran predictably fail and precious treatment time is wasted.
For adults with initial symptoms of bacterial prostatitis, Cifran tablets are usually prescribed at a dosage of 500 mg twice a day for two to four weeks. However, precise instructions on how to take Cifran will be given to the patient by the attending urologist, based on the severity of the disease.
A study conducted in South Korea found that the combination of garlic and ciprofloxacin was superior to ciprofloxacin alone for the treatment of chronic bacterial prostatitis. Researchers evaluated the antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties of garlic, along with the synergistic effect of garlic, along with ciprofloxacin, in adult male rats with chronic bacterial prostatitis.
A total of 41 rats with the disease were randomly assigned to four treatment groups: control, garlic, which received ciprofloxacin alone, and garlic plus ciprofloxacin. After three weeks of treatment, rats in the garlic group had a statistically significant reduction in bacterial growth and improved symptoms of prostate inflammation compared to the control group. However, the group given garlic plus ciprofloxacin had a greater reduction in bacterial growth and a significant improvement in prostate inflammation symptoms compared to the group treated with ciprofloxacin.
These results suggest that garlic may provide both antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory benefits, as well as a synergistic effect with ciprofloxacin.
Patients with prostatitis taking Cifran usually complain of side effects such as nausea (2.5%), diarrhea (1.6%), vomiting (1%) and rash (1%).

- Bone and joint infections (mild to moderate): 500 mg twice daily or 400 mg infusion twice daily for 30 days.
- Chronic bacterial prostatitis (mild or moderate severity). Dosage indicated for chronic bacterial prostatitis caused by Escherichia coli or Proteus Mirabilis: 500 mg twice daily or 400 mg infusion twice daily for 28 days.
- Chronic otitis media: 500 mg twice daily or 400 mg by infusion twice daily for 1-2 weeks.
- Infectious diarrhea: 500 mg twice daily for 5-7 days.
- Lower respiratory tract infections (mild to moderate): 500 mg twice daily or 400 mg infusion twice daily for one to two weeks.
- Skin structure infections (mild to moderate): 500 mg twice daily or 400 mg IV twice daily for one to two weeks.
- Urinary tract infections (mild/uncomplicated): 250 mg twice daily for 3 days.
- Urethral and gonococcal infections (uncomplicated): 250-500 mg once.
- Anthrax, post-exposure therapy and prophylaxis: 500 mg twice daily or 400 mg infusion daily for 60 days.
Elderly patients are prescribed a reduced number of Cifran tablets. The dosage is calculated based on the severity of symptoms and signs of the disease, as well as creatinine clearance. For example, if this indicator is from 30 to 50 ml/min, the dose of Cifran is from 250 to 500 mg twice a day.
"Cifran" is not the first choice drug in pediatrics (with the exception of anthrax), due to the increased incidence of side effects (including arthropathy) compared to the control group. There are no dosing data available for pediatric patients with renal impairment.
"Tsifran": dosage for children from 5 to 17 years:
- Pulmonary anthrax (post-exposure therapy).
Solution for infusion: at a rate of 10 mg/kg, twice a day, for two months. The individual dose should not exceed 400 mg.
Tablets: at a rate of 15 mg/kg, twice daily for two months; the individual dose should not exceed 500 mg. - Cystic fibrosis.
Tablets: at the rate of 40 mg/kg/day, twice a day. The individual dose should not exceed 2 g/day.
Solution for infusion: 20-30 mg/kg/day, every 8 hours. The individual dose should not exceed 1.2 g/day.
A large overdose of ciprofloxacin can cause kidney damage.
In animal studies, very large doses of ciprofloxacin caused breathing problems, vomiting and seizures.

Compound
1 film-coated tablet contains ciprofloxacin 500 mg; excipients: microcrystalline cellulose, starch
corn, magnesium stearate, purified talc, anhydrous colloidal silicon dioxide, sodium starch glycolate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, macrogol 400, titanium dioxide (E 171).
Description
white or off-white, round, film-coated tablets, beveled and marked "CFT" on one side and "500" on the other, and diamond-shaped designs on both sides;
pharmachologic effect
Cifran, like other fluorinated quinolones, blocks bacterial DNA gyrase, as a result of which it suppresses the function of bacterial DNA. Cifran is active against gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens, including strains resistant to penicillins, cephalosporins and/or aminoglycosides. The spectrum of action of Tsifran covers the following microorganisms:
aerobic gram-negative bacteria - Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., Salmonella spp., Proteus spp., Shigella spp., Yersinia spp., Enterobacter spp., Morganella morganii, Providencia spp., Vibrio spp., Citrobacter spp., Serratia spp., Campylobacter spp., Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P. cepacia, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, N. meningitidis, Haemophilus influenzae, H. ducreyi, Acinetobacter** spp., Moraxella catarrhalis, Gardnerella vaginalis, Pasteurella multocida, Helicobacter pylori;
aerobic gram-positive bacteria - staphylococci, including strains that produce penicillinase and strains resistant to methicillin, streptococci, including Streptococcus pneumoniae, Listeria monocytogenes, Corynebacterium spp..
The following are insensitive to the drug: anaerobic bacteria, mycobacteria, mycoplasma, rickettsia, chlamydia, Nocardia asteroides, Ureaplasma urealyticum, spirochete pallidum, viruses, fungi and protozoa.
Pharmacokinetics
Ciprofloxacin is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, its bioavailability is 70%. Food does not affect the degree of absorption of the drug, but may slightly reduce the rate of absorption. Peak concentrations of ciprofloxacin in the blood reach 1.5 mcg/ml and 2.5 mcg/ml within 1-2 hours after taking an oral dose of 250 mg and 500 mg, respectively. The half-life of the drug is 3.5-4.5 hours; it can be prolonged in elderly patients, and in cases of severe renal failure it can last up to 8 hours. The half-life may be slightly prolonged in patients with severe liver cirrhosis. The pharmacokinetics of Cifran does not change in patients with cystic fibrosis. The drug reaches therapeutic concentrations in almost all tissues and fluids of the body. Protein binding of ciprofloxacin is low - 19-40%. Ciprofloxacin passes through the placenta and is excreted in breast milk. 40-50% of the drug is excreted in the urine unchanged, and approximately 15% in the form of metabolites. Almost 20-35% of the drug is excreted in bile and feces.

Directions for use and doses
Doses of Cifran are established depending on the type, severity and localization of the infection, the type of microorganism and susceptibility to ciprofloxacin, the condition of the body, the patient’s kidney function, as well as body weight in children and* adolescents.
The duration of treatment depends on the severity of the disease, clinical and bacteriological results.
Treatment of infections caused by certain microorganisms (eg, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Acinetobacter or Staphylococci) may require higher doses of ciprofloxacin, as well as concomitant administration of other appropriate antibacterial drugs.
For the treatment of certain infections (eg, pelvic inflammatory disease, intra-abdominal infections, infections in patients with neutropenia, or infections of bones and joints), concomitant therapy with other appropriate antibacterial drugs may be prescribed.
Poe/strong patients
Elderly patients should be treated according to the severity of the infection and creatinine clearance.
Kidney and liver failure
In patients with impaired liver function, no dose adjustment is required.
Features of use in children with impaired liver or kidney function have not been studied.
Mode of application
The tablets should be swallowed whole with a small amount of liquid, regardless of meals. However, if the drug is taken on an empty stomach, the absorption of the active substance will occur faster. Ciprofloxacin tablets should not be taken with dairy products (milk, yogurt) or juices fortified with minerals (eg calcium-fortified orange juice). In severe cases or if the patient is unable to take tablets (for example, patients on enteral nutrition), it is recommended to begin treatment with intravenous ciprofloxacin followed by oral administration of the drug.
Side effect
From the gastrointestinal tract:
Nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, dyspepsia, abdominal pain, flatulence, loss of appetite; cholestatic jaundice (especially in patients with previous liver diseases), hepatitis, hepatonecrosis.
If severe, prolonged diarrhea occurs during or after treatment, you should consult a doctor, since this symptom may conceal a serious intestinal disease (pseudomembranous colitis), which requires immediate treatment. In such cases, ciprofloxacin should be discontinued and appropriate treatment should be initiated (eg, vancomycin orally, 250 mg x 4 times daily). In this case, the use of drugs that suppress peristalsis is contraindicated.
From the nervous system:
Dizziness, fainting, headache, fatigue, anxiety, trembling; very rare: insomnia, peripheral paralysis, sweating, unsteady gait, convulsions, increased intracranial pressure, anxiety, nightmares, cranial hypertension, anxiety, confusion, depression, hallucinations, as well as other manifestations of psychotic reactions (occasionally even progressing to states in which the patient may cause harm to himself), thrombosis of the cerebral arteries. Sometimes these reactions appear after the first use of ciprofloxacin. In such cases, you should stop using the drug and consult a doctor immediately.
From the senses:
Very rare: disturbances of taste and smell, visual disturbances (for example, diplopia, changes in color vision), tinnitus, temporary hearing impairment.
Photosensitivity
Ciprofloxacin has potential phototoxicity. Patients taking ciprofloxacin should avoid direct sunlight and intense ultraviolet radiation. In case of
photosensitivity (the appearance of burn-like symptoms) should be stopped.
From the hematopoietic system:
Eosinophilia, leukocytopenia, granulocytopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia; very rare: leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, hemolytic anemia.
From the urinary system:
Hematuria; crystalluria (primarily with alkaline urine and low diuresis), glomerulonephritis, dysuria, polyuria, urinary retention, albuminuria, urethral bleeding, hematuria, decreased nitrogen excretory function of the kidneys, interstitial nephritis.
From the musculoskeletal system:
Joint pain, joint swelling; very rarely: general weakness, muscle pain: arthralgia, arthritis, tendovaginitis, myalgia. In isolated cases, achillotendinitis was observed during the use of ciprofloxacin. However, isolated cases of partial or complete rupture of the Achilles tendon were observed, mainly in elderly patients who had previously received systemic treatment with glucocorticoids. Therefore, if any symptoms of achilles tendinitis (for example, painful swelling) appear, you should stop using ciprofloxacin and consult a doctor.
Allergic reactions:
Sometimes allergic reactions occur after the first use of ciprofloxacin. In such cases, you should stop using the drug and consult a doctor immediately. ^
Skin reactions, for example: rash, itching, drug fever.
Very rare: Pinpoint skin hemorrhages (petechiae), blisters,
accompanied by bleeding (hemorrhagic bullae), papules with crust formation, vasculitis.
Erythema nodosum, exudative polymorphic erythema (small forms).
Stevens-Johnson syndrome a (malignant exudative erythema), Lyell's syndrome.
Interstitial nephritis, hepatitis, necrosis of liver tissue, in rare cases progressing to life-threatening liver failure. Anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions (for example, swelling of the face or larynx; shortness of breath progressing to life-threatening shock), sometimes appearing after the first dose of the drug. In such cases, Ciprofloxacin should be discontinued and appropriate treatment should be resorted to (for example, therapy for anaphylactic shock).
From the cardiovascular system:
Tachycardia, heart rhythm disturbances, arterial hypotension, “flushes” of blood to the skin of the face.
Other side effects:
Tenosynovitis, increased photosensitivity, transient renal dysfunction, including renal failure, drug fever, pinpoint hemorrhages (petechiae), swelling of the face or larynx; shortness of breath Prolonged or repeated use of ciprofloxacin can lead to the development of superinfection caused by resistant microorganisms or yeast-like fungi.
From the laboratory parameters:
A temporary increase in transaminase and alkaline phosphatase levels or cholestatic jaundice may occur, especially in patients with a history of liver disease; there may be a temporary increase in the level of urea, creatinine or bilirubin in the blood serum; in some cases: hyperglycemia, crystalluria or hematuria.
Note for drivers:
Even when used as prescribed, this drug may reduce your reaction time to such an extent that your ability to drive or operate automated systems may be impaired. This negative impact is aggravated when alcohol is consumed simultaneously with therapy.
Overdose
Symptoms: There are no specific symptoms of overdose. Treatment: there is no specific antidote; general emergency measures, gastric lavage, administration of activated charcoal are recommended; hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are additionally recommended
Interaction with other drugs
Increases the concentration of theophylline (and other xanthines, for example, caffeine), oral hypoglycemic drugs in the blood plasma, indirect anticoagulants and lengthens their T1/2, increases the severity of the decrease in the prothrombin index, due to a slight decrease in the activity of microsomal oxidation processes in hepatocytes (the severity of this effect is weaker than cimetidine). If the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and theophylline is unavoidable, constant monitoring of the concentration of theophylline in the blood plasma is necessary until its dosage is reduced accordingly.
When taken simultaneously, it enhances the effect of indirect anticoagulants. Studies have shown that the combination of very high doses of quinolones (gyrase inhibitors) and certain non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (excluding acetylsalicylic acid) can cause seizures.
When combined with other antimicrobial drugs, synergism is usually observed (beta-lactams, aminoglycosides, clindamycin, metronidazole); can be successfully used in combination with azlocillin and ceftazidime for infections caused by Pseudomonas spp.; with mezlocillin, azlocillin and other beta-lactam antibiotics - for streptococcal infections; with isoxazolepenicillins and vancomycin - for staphylococcal infections; with metronidazole and clindamycin - for an. With simultaneous therapy with ciprofloxacin and cyclosporine, a short-term increase in the concentration of creatinine in the blood plasma was observed. In this regard, in such cases it is necessary to determine the level of creatinine in the blood twice a week.
The simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and warfarin may enhance the effect of the latter.
In some cases, the simultaneous use of ciprofloxacin and glibenclamide may enhance the effect of glibenclamide (hypoglycemia). Probenecid slows down the rate of excretion of ciprofloxacin by the kidneys. The simultaneous use of probenecid and ciprofloxacin increases the concentration of ciprofloxacin in plasma and blood.
Metoclopramide accelerates the absorption of ciprofloxacin, reducing the period of time required to achieve its maximum plasma concentration. However, the bioavailability of ciprofloxacin does not change. Co-administration of uricosuric drugs leads to a slowdown in elimination (up to 50%) and an increase in plasma concentrations of ciprofloxacin. Drugs that alkalinize urine (citrates, sodium bicarbonate, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors) reduce solubility (the likelihood of crystal uria increases).
Oral administration together with iron-containing preparations, sucralfate, bismuth preparations and antacid preparations containing Mg, Al and Ca ions leads to a decrease in the absorption of ciprofloxacin, so it should be prescribed either 1-2 hours before or no less than 4 hours after taking antacids. When used simultaneously with didanosine, the absorption of ciprofloxacin is reduced due to the formation of complexes of ciprofloxacin with the aluminum and magnesium salts contained in didanosine.
Ciprofloxacin, like other fluoroquinolones, should be used with caution in patients receiving drugs that prolong the QT interval (eg, class IA and III antiarrhythmics, tricyclic antidepressants, macrolides, antipsychotics)
Features of application
Severe infectious diseases and mixed infectious processes caused by gram-positive and anaerobic pathogenic flora Ciprofloxacin monotherapy is not suitable for the treatment of severe infections and diseases that can be caused by anaerobic pathogenic flora.
In these cases, ciprofloxacin should be prescribed simultaneously with other antibacterial drugs.
Streptococcal infection (including Streptococcus pneumoniae)
Infections of the genital tract w
Epididymo-orchitis and pelvic diseases can be caused by fluoroquinolone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Ciprofloxacin should be co-administered with other antibacterial drugs, unless ciprofloxacin-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae can be excluded. If clinical improvement is not observed within 3 days, then treatment should be reconsidered. Intra-abdominal infectious diseases
There is limited data on the effectiveness of ciprofloxacin for the treatment of postoperative intraperitoneal infections.
Traveler's diarrhea When choosing ciprofloxacin, it is necessary to take into account information about drug resistance of the relevant pathogenic microorganism in the country being visited.
Infectious diseases of bones and joints
Ciprofloxacin should be prescribed in combination with other
antimicrobial drugs and only after a microbiological study.
anthrax
Use in humans is based on in vitro susceptibility studies and animal studies. Information on the use of the drug in humans is limited. The treating doctor should refer to national and/or international documents related to the treatment of the specified disease.
Children and teenagers
Treatment can only be prescribed by a specialist experienced in the treatment of cystic fibrosis and/or severe infectious diseases in children and adolescents. Safety data obtained from randomized, double-blind studies of ciprofloxacin in children have identified cases of possible drug-related arthropathy (identified by clinical signs and symptoms). The incidence of the disease over a one-year period was 9.0% and 5.7%. Treatment should be started only after assessing the benefit/risk ratio, as joint-related adverse reactions may occur.
Bronchopulmonary infectious diseases
Clinical studies included children and adolescents aged 5-17 years. There are limited data regarding the treatment of children aged 1 to 5 years.
Complicated urinary tract infections and pyelonephritis Treatment with ciprofloxacin should be considered in cases where treatment with other drugs is not possible, and only after microbiological analysis.
Clinical studies included children and adolescents aged 1 to 17 years.
Other specific severe infectious diseases Ciprofloxacin is used in the treatment of other severe infectious diseases in accordance with official guidelines or after a careful assessment of the benefit/risk ratio in cases where other treatment is not possible, or after an unfavorable outcome of conventional treatment, and only after microbiological analysis.
Hypersensitivity
After taking a single dose of the drug, hypersensitivity reactions may occur, including anaphylactic and anaphylactoid """ reactions. If these reactions occur, it is necessary to stop taking the drug and prescribe appropriate conservative treatment.
Musculoskeletal system
At the first signs of tendinitis (painful swelling in the joint area, inflammation), the use of ciprofloxacin should be stopped and physical activity should be avoided, because There is a risk of tendon rupture, and consult a doctor.
In elderly patients with tendon diseases, or those previously treated with corticosteroids, cases of tendon rupture (mainly Achilles tendon) may occur.
Ciprofloxacin should be used with caution in patients with a history of tendon diseases associated with quinolones. Fluoroquinvlones, including ciprofloxacin, reduce neuromuscular transmission and may worsen muscle weakness in individuals with myasthenia gravis. Photosensitivity
Ciprofloxacin has been shown to cause photosensitivity reactions. Patients taking ciprofloxacin should avoid direct exposure to sunlight and UV radiation.
central nervous system
It is known that quinolones can initiate a seizure and lower the seizure threshold, due to the stimulating effect of ciprofloxacin on the central nervous system. Cifran should be used with caution in patients with diseases of the central nervous system that provoke seizures, and if these phenomena occur, stop taking the drug.
Cases of polyneuropathy (based on neurological symptoms such as pain, burning, agitation) have been reported in patients receiving ciprofloxacin. If symptoms of this disease occur, including pain, burning, tinnitus, numbness and/or weakness, the drug should be discontinued to prevent the development of an irreversible condition.
The cardiovascular system
Caution should be exercised when using fluoroquinolones, including coprofloxacin, in patients with known risk factors for QT prolongation, such as:
Congenital long QT syndrome
Concomitant use of drugs known to prolong the QT interval (eg, class IA and III antiarrhythmics, tricyclic antidepressants, macrolides, antipsychotics)
Electrolyte imbalance (eg, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia)
Elderly age
Heart disease (eg, heart failure, myocardial infarction, bradycardia).
Gastrointestinal tract
The presence of severe and persistent diarrhea during or after treatment with the drug (including several weeks after treatment) may indicate pseudomembranous colitis (life-threatening, possibly fatal), requiring immediate treatment. In such cases, it is necessary to immediately discontinue ciprofloxacin and begin appropriate treatment. The use of antiperistaltic drugs in this situation is contraindicated.
Renal and urinary system
During treatment with ciprofloxacin, to avoid the development of crystalluria, it is necessary to ensure that the patient receives a sufficient amount of fluid. Hepatobiliary system
Cases of liver necrosis and life-threatening
liver failure associated with the use of tsshtr fav-kvaiiia.„D.,
if any signs or symptoms appear
(such as anorexia, jaundice, dark urine, itching or a tense abdomen), treatment with the drug must be stopped.
Glucose-b-phosphate degmoduogenase deficiency
In patients with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, the use of ciprofloxacin may cause hemolytic reactions. It is necessary to avoid prescribing the drug to such patients, except in cases where the potential benefit outweighs the possible risk. In this case, the potential for hemolysis should be monitored.
Resistance
During long-term therapy and in cases of treatment of nosocomial infections and/or infections caused by Staphylococcus and Pseudomonas, there may be a potential risk of isolation of ciprofloxacin-resistant bacteria. Cytochrome P450
Ciprofloxacin inhibits CYP1A2, thereby causing an increase in serum concentrations of drugs metabolized by this enzyme (for example, theophylline, clozapine, ropinirole, tizanidine). Patients taking these drugs concomitantly with ciprofloxacin should be under medical supervision to identify clinical signs of overdose.
Effect on laboratory parameters
When assessing the results of bacteriological tests, the in-vitro activity of ciprofloxacin against Mycobacterium tuberculosis should be taken into account.
The drug reduces the speed of psychomotor reactions, which must be taken into account when driving vehicles and working with mechanisms that require concentration.
Release form
10 tablets in a blister; 1 blister in a cardboard box.
Storage conditions
Store in a dry place, out of reach of children, at a temperature not exceeding 25°C.
Instructions for use:
Cifran is an antibacterial drug from the quinolone/fluoroquinolone group.
Pharmacological action of Tsifran
Cifran is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial drug, the main active ingredient of which is ciprofloxacin. The therapeutic effect of the drug is based on the mechanism of inhibiting the bacterial enzyme and disrupting the synthesis of their DNA. In addition, Cifran is able to increase the permeability of the cell membrane of harmful microorganisms (in particular bacteria) and have a bactericidal effect on them. The drug affects both bacteria in the reproduction phase and those at rest.
Cifran is active against a number of aerobic gram-negative bacteria, including Enterobacter spp, Escherichia coli, Citrobacter spp, Shigella spp, Morganella morganii, Moraxella spp, Salmonella spp and others. Tsifran's activity against aerobic gram-positive bacteria was also noted: Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae and a number of others, including strains that produce penicillinase. Finally, the drug is active against intracellular bacteria: Brucella spp, Chlamydia trachomatis, Legionella spp, Mycoplasma hominis.
However, the instructions for Cifran note the resistance of anaerobic bacteria to the drug.
The post-antibiotic effect after taking the drug lasts up to 6 hours, which helps prevent further bacterial growth.
In addition, treatment with Cifran does not disrupt the natural microflora of the vagina and intestines.
