Cipro 500 Mg For Poison Ivy
(Newest replies first)
Updated
I would like to know the name of all the meds that work to treat poison ivy.
Will cephalexin 500 mg or ciprofloxacin 500 mg work?

No, these are antibiotics that are used to treat bacterial infections. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.
Poison ivy is actually an allergic reaction, so you may need a steroid to treat it, as well as an antihistamine, according to FDA reports.
How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?
