Platelet-Rich Plasma Protects Tenocytes From Adverse Side Effects of Dexamethasone and Ciprofloxacin

Abstract

Both ciprofloxacin and dexamethasone are highly effective in treatment of inflammatory and infectious conditions, therefore new strategies to minimize their adverse effects are of strong interest. These findings suggest the potential for local administration of PRP to enhance tendon healing in patients undergoing glucocorticoid or fluoroquinolone treatment.
