Proquin XR (ciprofloxacin) is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that fights bacteria in the body.

Proquin XR is used to treat simple uncomplicated bladder infections.

It is not known if Proquin XR is safe and works in treating any infections other than uncomplicated bladder infections.

Fluoroquinolone antibiotics can cause serious or disabling side effects that may not be reversible.

Proquin XR should be used only for infections that cannot be treated with a safer antibiotic.

It is also not known if this medicine is safe and works in children under 18 years of age. Children have a higher chance of getting bone, joint, or (musculoskeletal) problems while taking fluoroquinolone antibiotic medicines.

Some infections are caused by viruses rather than by bacteria. Examples include viral infections in the sinuses and lungs, such as the common cold of flu. Antibiotics including ciprofloxacin do not kill viruses.
