supplement:

Garlic

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

The garlic plus ciprofloxacin group showed a statistically significant decrease in bacterial growth and improvement in prostatic inflammation compared with the ciprofloxacin group.
These results suggest that garlic may have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects as well as a synergistic effect with ciprofloxacin.
We therefore suggest that the combination of garlic and ciprofloxacin may be effective in treating CBP with a higher success rate.

The study results indicate the possibility of using garlic as e.g. a supplement used during antibiotic therapy, which may increase the effectiveness of gentamicin and ciprofloxacin.
