Hi there, I'm a pharmacist from Oklahoma.
Ciprofloxacin is in a class of antibiotics called fluoroquinolones. The antibiotics in this class act by preventing bacteria from transcribing their genes. That is, it prevents the bacteria from creating proteins and other molecules correctly that are essential for the survival and reproduction of the bacteria.

Ciprofloxacin (Cipro) is the quinolone antibiotic most commonly prescribed. Quinolones are usually given over a 3-day period. Pregnant women should not take these drugs.

When you take antibiotics you really foul up your intestinal flora. You may have temporarily gotten rid of your urinary tract infection, but chances are you have introduced a whole host of new problems. Maybe the most relevant to your UTI is that diarrhea is one of the most common side effects of antibiotics. Why? Because the antibiotics have killed all the good bacteria that live in your stomach and aid in digestion along with the E. Coli you were trying to get rid of. What happens when you have diarrhea? You increase the presence of fecal matter and E. Coli!

It's an antibiotic. It works by preventing bacteria from multiplying.
