Ciprofloxacin can treat infections in patients with connective tissue disorders, but risks include potential tendon damage and interactions with other medications.
While ciprofloxacin is effective for various infections, caution is advised for patients with connective tissue disorders due to an increased risk of tendonitis and tendon rupture.
