Only your surgeon can answer that for sure, but most likely, as long as the infection has cleared up. The typical side effects of this antibiotic, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## hi after removing teeth than how much day we need to take antibiotic ordent ? please suggest

I took Clindamycin 300mg cap 4x/day for 10 days. I still have an abcess on my neck (caused possibly from ingrown hair and my picking?). The lump has gotten much smaller, from large ping-pong to regular grape, but never came to head, and when i originally asked the doc about cleaning it out, she said we will see if this works first. I'm not happy i took such a risk and then read that these type of "cysts" cannot receive the antibiotic because they are closed off. ....etc. I finished pills yesterday. Will it continue to work like other antibiotics I've taken? I'm not sure when I should go back to the doc. ## Hello, Michelle! How are you? Yes, it can continue to work for a few days. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache...

I see many people are searching for Penicilina Pomada or Sulfatiazol con Penicilina! We are all asking the same question: Where can I find some? I have used it for many years and it cost only 50 cents when I got it in Mexico!! Does ANYONE have the answer? ## HI, Marti! How are you? I'm very sorry, but formations of Penicillin can only be obtained in the U.S. via a prescription from your doctor. The reason for this is due to overuse and improper use, which creates the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria, a problem that has become more and more prevalent and dangerous. Learn more Penicillin details here. ## Find at any Mexican supermarket it cost about $5 ## A Mexican friend gave me a small plastic container of the pomada sulfatiazol close to 30 years ago when iI had blee...

I'm nursing my 5 month old baby. I have a real bad sinus infection I'm even loosing my voice. My doc. prescribe me amox tr-k clv 875-125, and he said not to breastfeed for 10 days. My breastfeeding counselor said that its ok to do so. So as you see I am so confuse. ## Personally, I would follow the advice of the person who is the medical professional. If your doctor doesn't think you should breast fed while doing so, then you should not do so. Antibiotics can pass through breast milk and there has been some evidence to show that it can cause children to develop antibiotic resistant bacteria, since they did not have a reason to need the medication. Thus, it is just safer, for your child and your own piece of mind to not breast feed while on the medication. Do you have any oth...

I have been on Levaquin for pneumonia for 8 days now, i haven't had any negative side effects yet. After reading all these bad experiences it makes me not want to finish my last 2 doses. Should I be worried even though I haven't had any negative side effects? ## Hi Jason, All prescription drugs carry the possible risk of side effects, but the important thing to understand is that not everyone who takes these drugs experiences them; they are merely risk factors in that regard. If it's been working for you without any complications then I see no reason to be concerned. However, if you feel that the possible risks outweigh whatever benefit you are receiving from the medication, then I would still encourage you to talk with your doctor about other safer alternatives, if there ar...

Erythromycin caused me bad side effects i took them for jus 1 day as i couldnt cope with them. How long wil it take to get out my system? ## Hello, Yaz! How are you? What side effects did you experience? The FDA lists the typical ones for this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. If you only took it for one day, it shouldn't take more than a couple days for things to settle down. However, you should consult your prescriber, as you may need to try a different antibiotic. ## I have been on 750 mg for 7 days.I complained to my doctor about the side effects It is a horrible drug,I would not recommend or advise anyone to take.I have 3 more pills left.But the bucks stop here that's it for me.

My daughter has been diagnosed with typhoid and the doctor prescribed zifi cv 200 tablet twice a day. She has a throat infection along with a high fever of 105 deg. fahrenheit. She has been taking the drug since the last 48 hours and has developed diarrhea. Since I cannot get in touch with the attending doctor I'm intimated to continue the normal course of the antibiotics and am also concerned about the side effects if any. ## Diarrhea can be a normal side effect of an antibiotic, according to the U.S. FDA. She may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache and non-allergic skin rash. You are doing the right thing, it is best to continue the course of treatment, unless her doctor instructs otherwise. Is there anything else I can help with?

It is an antibiotic, so it can be used to treat various types of infections, however, it is not going to negate the need for a dental visit. Even if it clears up an infection, if you do have one, it will not fix the underlying problem that caused the infection, so it will just continue to recur. Are there any low-income clinics in your area? Side effects to this medication may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. ## ARE ANTIBIOTICS STILL GOOD AFTER EXPIRATION DATE ? ## Can bactrium antibiotics be used to cure reoccurring Boyles? ## Yes.

I can't remember if I took my bedtime dose of clindamycin. Should I just wait until the morning dose. ## Hello, Judy! How are you? That is one option, the other would be to count the remaining tablets to see if you took it, or not. The FDA lists the typical side effects of this antibiotic as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Thanks for the suggestion. I also thought of that AFTER I posted. Thanks again.

Are Nefrosave and acetysteine & taurine of lupinac both good for my mother who is 66yrs old and suffering from a urinary infection? Pls reply. ## Hello, Tanvi! How are you? Was she not placed on an antibiotic? That would be the best thing to help resolve her infection. The U.S. FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. As to those you've mentioned, they are just nutritional supplements, making sure you take enough of them can help support healthy kidney function, but will not do anything to eradicate an existing infection.

Our Peditrician Rx this for strep throat for my type I diabetic 2 year old. We are on day four and he's been complaining of headaches a few hours after taking it. It's just once a day for a total of 10 days. I called pedi about headache and was told to give with ibuprofen. He awoke with headache again and is now vomiting and has fever again. Very miserable. After reading these side effects people are having I'm very worried of what this could mean for him in long run. I hear Cdiff is very hard to treat and the first poster sounds like he now has dishydrotic eczema which I actually have after my son and his twin were for and its never gone away. I hope that my toddler doesn't get it now as well from this antibiotic. Geez I hate modern medicine. ## Hello, Faith! How is you...

I was wondering if a large amount of amoxil & clavunate k 500/125mg 30 ( that's exactly what my capsule says on it)will make you feel oozy, drowsy or sleep. Because I was told to take 2tabs 3 times a day and to take with food. Seems sketchy to me because I've been prescribed to this medication. Before and last time is said to take 1 tab twice a day. Or is it depending how bad the illness is? My job is a bit far from home and I would like to be driving like this. ## Hello, Luan! How are you? Yes, the dose can be dependent on the severity of the infection being treated.

My daughter has been diagnosed with Lymes disease from a tick bite.The doctor has her on 3 different antibiotics, and some supplements, but she is suffering in every manner.
