* Fluoroquinolones, including Ciprofloxacin injection, USP are associated with an increased risk of tendinitis and tendon rupture in all ages. This adverse reaction most frequently involves the Achilles tendon, and rupture of the Achilles tendon may require surgical repair. Tendinitis and tendon rupture in the rotator cuff (the shoulder), the hand, the biceps, the thumb, and other tendon sites have also been reported. The risk of developing fluoroquinolone-associated tendinitis and tendon rupture is further increased in older patients usually over 60 years of age, in patients taking corticosteroid drugs, and in patients with kidney, heart or lung transplants. Factors, in addition to age and corticosteroid use, that may independently increase the risk of tendon rupture include strenuous physical activity, [[renal failure]], and previous tendon disorders such as [[rheumatoid arthritis]]. [[Tendinitis]] and tendon rupture have also occurred in patients taking fluoroquinolones who do not have the above risk factors. Tendon rupture can occur during or after completion of therapy; cases occurring up to several months after completion of therapy have been reported. Ciprofloxacin Injection, USP should be discontinued if the patient experiences [[pain]], swelling, inflammation or rupture of a tendon. Patients should be advised to rest at the first sign of [[tendinitis]] or tendon rupture, and to contact their healthcare provider regarding changing to a non-quinolone antimicrobial drug.
