2. methylprenisolon (3x1) prescribed only seven tablets
3. Ciproloxacin hcl 500mg. This is antibiotics. Prescribed 2x1 for 5 days (10 tablets). Note that this antibiotics is strong and causing tummy discomfort. It is better to take polysilane 30 mins, then in the middle of eating, take the antibiotics. Thus will help to avoid tummy pain.
