Ciprofloxacin is generally used to treat urinary tract infections because it is highly effective against E. Coli and other common bacteria that cause UTI's. However, a wound abcess can produce anaerobic bacteria that would be more resistant to Ciprofloxacin. Depending on the type of bacteria causing the infection, a stronger antibiotic like Vancomycin or Azithromycin would be more effective.
