Can Taking Ciplox-tx 500/600mg Help Cure Giardia?
I have been diagnosed with giardia and told to take ciplox-tz 500mg/600mg twice a day for five days. My question is can I still run and cycle. I have heard that the drug can produce tendon problems, how long after taking can I stop worrying about tendon issues?

Hello,
I really appreciate your concern, the drug that you are taking may not cause anything like you are thinking, and if this is the GI infection like giardiasis then you have to complete the course, do not worry about anything and finish the course of medicines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Akhtarhusain
