Best Answer

Ciprofloxacin, often called "Cipro" is a broad-spectrum antibiotic often used to treat urinary tract infections.

Drug testing looks for opiates (narcotics) or for common street drugs. Drug testing is not used to detect antibiotics because there is no reason to check for infection-fighting medications.

Cipro is supposed to be able to throw a false positive for marijuana. I have been on Cipro, though, and I guarantee any drug test operator who opens a jar of urine that came out of someone using Cipro and doesn't know what she's got should hang it up: Cipro gives the urine a very strong, very distinctive aroma.

No, ciprofloxacin will not clear drugs out of your body. In fact, it will do the opposite.

Your liver contains enzymes which belong to the CYP450 family (cytochrome P450). These enzymes help to eliminate drugs from your body by making them soluble in water and this able to be excreted by the urinary tract. If you consume ciprofloxacin, CYP450 enzymes will be working hard to eliminate it from your body, instead of other drugs. So it will take longer for you to eliminate them.

It does on a drug uptake test--you give someone cipro, then test them a certain number of hours later to see how they're absorbing the drug.

Man, I actually TOOK some Cipro once. It was in these powerful antibiotic eyedrops. I put the eyedrops in and within 15 minutes I could taste the Cipro--and Cipro doesn't taste very good. It was a very weird experience and one I don't really want to repeat.

It shouldn't however, there are cited references online that certain fluoroquinones (cipro) may produce a false positive for opiates.
