Your Used (or new) RV requires 12 volt electrical power to function. This is because the RV is capable of parking where there are no “hookups” or source of electrical power. The power is provided by one or more batteries located somewhere on the RV.

Most of the appliances used in daily living in the RV are powered by 12 volts with the exception of the air conditioner and microwave oven.

The appliances that consume propane such as the refrigerator and furnace still require a source of 12 volt energy to power their electronic controls.

So what does the converter actually do?

The main job of the converter is to “convert” or change the 120 volt “shore” power from the RV park electrical hookup to approximately 12 volts that the RV needs. You will find a row of automotive type fuses that protect the different circuits using 12 volt power. It is a good idea to add some replacement fuses to your spare parts kit. You do have a spare parts kit, don’t you?

Another very important function is to charge the storage batteries in the RV by providing a “trickle” charge current that will replace the amount of current drawn from the batteries.

This will keep the batteries fully charged but you should inspect the batteries for water level on a monthly basis. Some power converters have a high trickle charge rate that will boil the battery dry if not inspected.

Finally, the converter is the distribution center for the electrical power. Behind the cover, you will find breaker switches for the 120 volt circuits and fuses for the 12 volt circuits. All the power for the RV is routed through the converter. There is a series of 120 volt circuit breakers that control the ac power to the air conditioner, microwave, and wall outlets.

So that mysterious dark colored box quiet humming in the corner is doing a very important job. Without it, RV living would be very different.

In America, there are thousands of antibiotics being used, created or tested. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for ensuring these drugs are safe for patients and receive the appropriate warning labels for doctors. Recently, the fluoroquinolone group of antibiotics were given the most severe warning by the FDA — the black box labeling.

The drug types within the fluoroquinolone family include:

* Levaquin (levofloxacin).

* Factive (gemifloxacin mesylate).

* Avelox (moxifloxacin HCL).

*Cipro XR and Proquin XR (ciprofloxacin extended release).

*Noroxin (norfloxacin).

*Floxin (ofloxacin).

*Cipro (ciprofloaxacin).

With the new labeling, the drugs will now carry a black box warning label, considered the strongest label given by the FDA. Researchers continue to find evidence linking the fluoroquinolone antibiotics to the tendon rupture or Achilles tendonitis, but a recall of the drugs has yet to occur.

What is Achilles Tendonitis?

Achilles tendonitis is the inflammation or irritation of the Achilles tendon. Individuals who have taken any of the fluoroquinolone prescription drugs, especially the more common Cipro, may be at risk for Achilles tendonitis, which often results in the tendon rupture or tear. If Achilles tendonitis does lead to a tendon/muscle tear, the chances for surgically operating to treat the tendon rupture are high. Cipro was associated with Achilles tendon rupture in a study published in Clinical Rheumatology in February 2004.

Because scientists and researchers are finding an increased risk of Cipro-related tendon rupture, it is important for any individual who has previously taken Cipro – even if it was anywhere from 1 week ago to 6 months, 2 years or prior – that the patient speak with a physician, especially if they are experiencing pain or swelling of their muscles.

Uses for Cipro

Cipro, is manufactured from Bayer A.G., and is one of the more commonly prescribed fluoroquinolone prescription drugs. It is used to fight the following bacterial infections as well as other bacterial condensations:

* Enterobacteriaceae.

* Vibrio.

* Haemophilus influenza.

* Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

* Neisseria meningitidus.

* Moraxella catarrhalis.

* Escherichia coli (E. coli).

* Mycobacterium intracellulare.

Cipro has also been approved to treat the symptoms of an anthrax attack.

Cipro Side Effects

In addition to the severe tendon rupture risk associated with taking Cipro, the prescription antibiotic has also been linked to other discomforting and painful side effects. According to Medline Plus, a service of the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health, some of the additional side effects include:

* nausea.

* vomiting.

* stomach pain.

* vaginal itching/discharge.

* paranoia.

* nightmares or abnormal dreams.

* anxiety.

* indigestion.

* diarrhea.

* headache.

* nervousness.

* agitation.

While the previous side effects may seem as if there are average or normal when taking a prescription drug, Medline also included a list of several side effects that will require a patient to discontinue their use of Cipro immediately, as their health may be at risk. Additionally, an array of grave side effects and risks include:

* rash, blisters, hives or itching.

* tingling or swelling of limbs, face, neck, throat, lips, eyes or lower legs.

* loss of muscle strength.

* numbness.

* hoarseness.

* fainting.

* suicidal thoughts/tendencies.

* depression.

* hallucinations.

* seizures.

* confusion

* burning sensation, weakness of body.

* fever.

* joint or muscle pain.

* jaundice.

* double vision, dizziness.

* loss of energy, tiredness.

* easy bruising or bleeding of body.

* loss of appetite.

Preventing Harmful Cipro Risks

Individuals who have been adversely affected by the potentially harmful Cipro side effects are advised to contact an experienced pharmaceutical lawyer, as a Cipro attorney will be able to provide legal consultation and individual assistance for a lawsuit. Cipro risks may be fatal or long lasting. In which case, an individual affected by the prescription drugms dangers should develop a pharmaceutical lawsuit to be reimbursed for the damages caused.
