Would Excess Intake Of Ciprofloxacin Cause Shoulder Pain?
Am taking ciprofloxacin for an infection and am concerned now after reading about the medicines side effects (joint and tendon pain) because I had a shoulder labrum repair in june. should I have not been prescribed this? I had to stop taking my diclofenac and flexiril so I am unsure whether the excessive shoulder pain is from this or the cipro.

Hi,
There is no side effects of levofloxacin. You can take this will not harm your shoulder labrum. There is no effect on the surgery. Don't worry.
