Reply to "Only one antibiotic at a time?"

Cipro and flagyl are often prescribed together because they are from different antibiotic families, work on different bacteria and give you the broadest possible spectrum of coverage. Levacquin and cipro come from the same family of antibiotics (Fluoroquinolone) and should never be taken together or rotated one after the other, as you don't marry antibiotics within one family. An ideal rotation (if tolerated) is cipro and flagyl, then xifaxin, and then augmentin.
