The FDA lists its other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea and non-allergic skin rash. To treat a yeast infection, you need an antifungal medication.

ointment for blepharitis ## Looking for yellow mercury ointment for treating eye diease ## Funny you should ask, I came down with pink eye this AM - I'm sure this is too late to help you, but I just found something remarkably simular from a Chinese herbalist. Comes in a little yellow tube. Now it couldn't be mercuric oxide because the FDA banned it (even though it is the ONLY treatment fo pink eye and styes that works.) What is it in thislittle tube? Gee, I dunno, the label is in Chinese, all I can read is ".5%" My eye is getting better almost immediately after applying this ointment. I suggest you seek out your local herbalist and obtain this stuff whatever it may be in a .5% concentration ;o) ## Where did you buy that little tube as I need it very bad for my eye ## I s...

is it dangerous to take nitrofurantoin 7 months after the discard date? ## Hello, Ezmee! How are you? It doesn't become toxic, or anything, once expired, however, the danger may lie in the fact that it might not be as effective as it was, when new, which could result in your developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. Thus, it's best to dispose of it and see your doctor for a new prescription. 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?

I started amoxicillin 100 mg 2 days ago for a sinus infection. All of a sudden I have lower back pain. I read this was one side effect. It came up all a sudden. I stopped taking it. I can't sleep or walk much because of the pain ## Hello, Julie! How are you? I'n very sorry about how you're feeling. It is odd for it to cause such severe pain. However, it should only take a couple days for things to settle back down, since you were on it for such a short period of time. However, if you have an infection that requires treatment, you should return to your doctor, so they can prescribe a different antibiotic.

I started taking ampitrexyl less than 24 hours ago for an abscessed tooth. I started my first dose with two 500 milligram capsules then I took 1 capsule every 4 hours ending with a total of 2000 milligrams for the day. I woke up this morning with no tooth pain and plan to continue for the next three days taking 3 500 milligram pills so 1500 milligrams. I will take one capsule every 8 hours for 3 days. I must say I am very impressed with this product. ## Hi Kimbo, Thanks for the heads up on this natural antibiotic and for sharing your first hand experience with it.

My friend has Aids and have been taking Bactrim for a long period of time. I read some side effects of Bactrim and he has all of them. aching joints, swelling, nausea, rashes sometimes. In a lot of pain. I was wondering what he could take in place of Bactrim to see if his condition improves. ## Hi Darryl, sorry to hear about your friend. That's kind of tough because I am assuming that he's been taking the Bactrim in order to prevent pneumonia? Sounds like he needs to be on a preventative treatment but this particular antibiotic can be pretty tough on the body. While there are other antibiotics out there which are generally tolerated better, they may not be a good fit based on his condition and needs. Has his doctor been notified about these side effects? Perhaps they could work ...

I was prescribed sulfamethoxazole-tmp ds a week ago for urinary infection and ear pain. Was taken by severe headache behind my eyes. I've had constant nagging headache all week that won't go away. I don't know if it's from the antibiotics or the new Belviq I was also put on. Can I take Sudafed with these and excedrin to be able to function today? ## Hello, Laura! How are you? Yes, this antibiotic can cause headaches as a side effect, as reported by the FDA. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. You should avoid taking the Excedrin, though, because the antibiotic may cause you to absorb too much of the Aspirin that's in it. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Feeling better now that I restarted my citalopram as well. I ...

I get the urge to pee, its very painful and my pee is blood red. Help? What does this mean? ## Hello, Nani! How are you? It sounds like you didn't have enough antibiotic to fully eradicate the infection. You need to see your doctor for a new prescription of antibiotics to try and clear this up. Blood in your urine can happen, with a severe infection. There's also a slight risk you may have something more serious going on, such as kidney stones, so you need to have this checked out.
