Reviews

Artem
Great tool. An intestinal infection that tormented me for 5 days capitulated after 1 tablet of ciprofloxacin for an hour. During these 5 agonizing days I tried a lot of everything: coal, smectu, imodium, enterol, herbal tinctures, ersefuril, and the evil bacteria continued to torment me.
The stomach was not working, the most severe diarrhea (though without spasmodic pains and temperature) the stomach boiled and swelled like a boiling kettle, at the end air began to leave the stomach with the smell of hydrogen sulfide, and this is a sign of the activity of pathogenic microbes in the stomach. Then I realized that there was nowhere else to go and that I would have to find an antibiotic that would quickly solve my problems.
I read the reviews and articles in the Internet, bought this ciprofloxacin and now everything is fine with me. All symptoms disappeared like a hand in a short time.
