Cdiff and gabapentin

Postby Joylover » Tue Sep 12, 2017 9:12 pm

I have been put on ciprodex. Can I get c diff from being on ciprodex and gabapentin.

Gabapentin is not an antibiotic.
I assume you are talking about ciprodex ear drops. Ear drops stay in your ears. They don't go through your GI tract so should not cause c diff.
If you have questions about any meds you should double check with your dr or to be really quick,you can ask the pharmacist.

Don't know nothing about Ciprodex but Gabapentin is definitely not linked to Cdiff.
