reduce the incidence or progression of disease following exposure. According
to Cipro's prescribing information, the recommended adult dosing for
treatment of anthrax exposure is 500mg of oral Cipro Tablet or Suspension
every 12 hours for 60 days. Treatment should begin as soon as possible after
exposure and before symptoms appear. (WirePix/Bayer Corporation)
