It sounds like your doctor is treating you for chlamydia with doxycycline, and against the possibility of undetected gonorrhea with ciprofloxacin. However, Cipro is no longer recommended for treatment of gonorrhea in 2011 as I'm typing this answer. Call your doctor to find out what was intended with the two medications. There may be some other explanation specific to your situation. If the doctor was trying to cover gonorrhea, ask him or her to choose a medication from the current CDC treatment recommendations.

Are antibiotics dangerous?

All antibiotics come with risks; some are safer than others. Your doctor will know how to determine if a given antibiotic poses too great a risk for you. If properly prescribed and properly used, risks should be at a minimum. Your intestines are full of bacteria that you absolutely need to stay healthy, and antibiotics don't know the difference between healthy intestinal flora and illness causing bacteria. That is why your physician will choose the right antibiotic for a given need. Sometimes people have the mindset that 'only an antibiotic will help me with...'. The problem may not even be treatable with antibiotics. Very unfortunately, doctors will sometimes placate patients by prescribing an antibiotic when it is not indicated. Ciprofloxacin is a powerful and very useful synthetic antibiotic. See link for some general information. Highlighting Ciprofloxacin is NOT to be construed as an indication that there is something wrong with it when properly used.
