I agree. I did comment above that Cipro saved my sisters life when she contracted a serious MRSA infection in afghanistan. If the quinolones are ever prescribed it should be a last line of defense situation. I do think that older antibiotics combined with IV ozone, Vit C etc would be just as effective without the horrible side effects if you have access to the non allopathic treatments. Most antibiotics designed in the last 20 years need to be reserved for truly life threatening infections if used at all.
Also I think that list is fear mongering click bait. ALL medication have side effects. The second medication listed , Cipro is in a class of antibiotics called quinolones which should e used in life threatening situations and probably not even then. Penicillin, amoxicillin and zithromycin have of the lowest side effect rates of antibiotics in the modern world. The discussion needs to be centered around being healthy enough that these interventions aren’t needed in the first place.
I was given amoxicillin as an infection preventive after getting a root canal. Two days later I broke out in hives all over my body and ran a low fever. I had no idea I was allergic. I needed to take prednisone for a week to calm it down.
Could those antibiotics be listed here? Of course not as recommendation, just neighbor to neighbor info.

At least people now have a starting list of antibiotics to be wary of...
