What causes blood during urination while on Cipro?
Patient: My son is taking 2- 500 mg a day for bladder infection. I noticed the instructions said not to take with milk. His is on a milk based formula diet. In an effort to give his medication every 12 hours, his gets his first dose an hour before his feeding (6:45 am) and second dose at 6:45 pm with his suppertime feeding. He gets fed every 3 1/2 to 4 hours so I can get 5 feedings in a day. He has been taking Cipro since Thurs. with no problems, but this morning there was blood in his urine.

It will help to find out the cause of the red colored urine.
