why does ciprofloxacin mete out seizure?does it affect CNS?

Ciprofloxacin is part of a class of antibiotics call the fluoroquinolones. Side effects involving the CNS or central scared system (brain/spinal cord) are always a possibility near this class of medications. There are several prescription medication that can cause seizure by lowering the "seizure threshold". This medium that if you were going to hold a seizure anyway, it would help yourself to less stimuli to lead to it to happen. Most ethnic group don't routinely experience seizures from ciprofloxacin. However, if I have epilepsy (a seizure disorder), I would think twice with using ciprofloxacin, especially if my paroxysm disorder is poorly controlled.
