I resently bought a cream called Terrasil. I see there are differwnt types of this cream. Which is best for Blanities ? ## Hi, Omar! How are you? What has your doctor advised you to use to treat it? There are several possible causes of Balanitis, so proper treatment depends on the exact cause. For instance, if it's been caused by a bacterial infection, an antibiotic may be required, or if it's caused by a virus, then something completely different is required to treat it.

RXd Cipro 500mg bid x 7 days in mid-July for e coli kidney infection. Cleared infection. However, broke out in major seborrheic dermatitis all over face, head, and groin while taking. Also noticed anxiety ramping up while taking with decreasing appetitie and gastric upset/loose stools. I was already suffering from knee pain and plantar fasciitis, but have since developed more widespread muscle pain and more joint pain elsewhere, especially left elbow and hips, and the knee and heel feel worse than ever. No physical reason for this, and my achilles are more sore than ever as well. I lost 26 pounds since the day I started Cipro course for no other explainable reason, and my weight was stable before taking it for months. My anxiety is now intolerable if I don't take Xanax XR .5 at leas...

I am having fissure (related to piles / haemeroid). i have been recommended to use : Zenflox 200 mg and Nizer P (500 mg ) to control inflation and infection when I get pain and it continues due to inflation and infection. Will that be of any help as I am still confused over the use of Zenflox 200 ## Hi, Sunny! Sorry about the medical problems that you're having. Zenflox contains the active ingredient Ofloxacin, which is an antibiotic that's used to treat or prevent bacterial infections. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Zenflox details here. Thus, this is the one to prevent or treat the infection. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Dear Verwon, Thanks alot for your response. I was seeking a right answer before I s...

I am 15 weeks pregnant I was put on this medication for a UTI 2 capsules a day for 7 days I took 3 doses and didn't think much about mood changes because of being pregnant, after 4th dose I experienced severe vomiting, at the same time my nose was gushing blood, and I became extremely confused and unable to speak anything that made sence, I read possible side effects some included unusual bleeding confusion mood or mental changes severe vomiting. I contacted my doctor she then put me on keflax I have been fine ever since. ## Wow! Those are very unusual side effects, indeed. Glad you got it all straightened out, though. You may want to make sure it's listed under the allergy section of your medical records, to make sure no one tries to give it to you in the future. Did the infect...

Can someone PLEASE tell me if a PRECAUTIONS LEAFLET should be inside the packet of KENACOMBE OINTMENT? I was prescribed this ointment with no leaflet to rub into my scalp for 2 weeks for infected dermatitis; my doctor of 5 years knew I had a bout of shingles two years ago and was still suffering nerve spasms in the back. After four applications of Kenacombe a rash appeared on my forehead; eyes severely itching and ears sore and itching. With no faith in the doctors in my area, I went to Brisbane for a second opinion to my rash as it was now spread to my breasts and midriff and down the top of my legs. The rash was burning and some blistering. The doctor in Brisbane indicated the Neomycin was the cause of the rash and burning and it would escalate for 14 days before easing!! imagine if I...

Hi I Was prescibed Trolic 5mg (Take 4 tablets once a 1) And Erythromycin Strearate 250mg (Take 1 tablet 4 times a day) After I Had An Asthma Attack. Is It Safe To Take Paracetamol tablets with thi, cause it gives me a trerrible tession headache as well as tightens my head jaws and neck. ## Hi Sherwin, Sorry to hear about your situation. Based on my research, There are no drug interactions listed between Paracetamol and Erythromycin/Trolic. So you should be fine in that regard. On the other hand, there ARE interactions between Erythromycin and Trolic (Prednisone). Apparently taking the two together can catalyze the effects and levels of prednisone in your blood. This, in turn, can significantly increase your risk of certain side effects (perhaps even leading to those symptoms that you...

it is now the 6th day... applied antibiotic ointment yet the wound is still wet and prickingly painful when moved ## Hi, Leonard! Sorry about the burn. However, a third degree burn wouldn't be painful and would be such a deep burn into your muscle tissue that it would require medical attention. If it's wet and painful, then it's most likely a second degree burn. If that's the case, then you need to keep it clean and cool. However, there is no way to cure it, it will only heal with time. Have you had your doctor check it out? You should do so, just to be certain it doesn't get infected. Aloe Vera gel can also be very soothing.

Hi my son is 4 months old and he has a dry cough and skin allergy (skin asthma) i bring him in the health center, and the doctor gave him amoxicillin trihydrate betamox 100mg/ml powder for suspension. my question is, this medicine is really the right medicine for my son's dry cough? cause as i've read that this kind of medicine is used to treat certain bacterial infections of the ear, nose, throat, lungs, skin or bladder. Betamox can also be used to prevent infection when you undergo certain dental procedures. is this really the right medicine for my 4 months old baby? ## Hi, Rizza! How is your son doing? And I have to agree with you, this is antibiotic that's only effective at treating bacterial infections, so it isn't likely to help with either issue. Additionally, the...

cephalexin cap 500 mg #294/294. is this the same as cephalexin for people ## Hi, Jean! How are you? And yes, since it is a medication that's used in both, there's no need to manufacturer a separate supply for veterinary use, so the same ones used by your vet are what you may receive from your pharmacy. Learn more Cephalexin details here. With the high safety and quality standards required by the FDA, it is safe for some medications manufactured for people to be used in our pets. However, the obverse is not true, since those manufactured specifically for animals are not so strictly controlled. Is there anything else I can help with?

Does doxycycl hycl 100mg make my period late or not come? ## Hi, Kaykay! How are you? No, antibiotics aren't known to cause that. However, the infection you were taking it to treat could be the culprit. Your body chemistry and hormones tend to get thrown off in instances of illness, sometimes due to the fact that your vitamin D drops very low, especially when you have an infection. Vitamin D is actually a hormone that can have an effect on other hormones in the body. However, if you've been actively engaging in intercourse, then you should be checked for pregnancy, to be certain. Are there any other questions or concerns?

My daughter is 14 months I took her to patient first an they said she has pneumonia they gave her amoxicillin 400mg/5ml and takes 3/4 tsp 3times a day for 10 days I feel that is very high for a 14 month when I take 500mg I don't know if I shoud give it to her or just wait an see what the doctor does ## Hi, Nicole! How is she doing? In children, Amoxicillin is usually dosed by weight, for pneumonia it's 40 to 50mgs per kg of body weight, divided in to even doses every 8 hours. I understand that it may seem high to you and, of course, if you're concerned check with her doctor, before giving it to her, but please do so promptly, to avoid the pneumonia worsening. Learn more Amoxicillin details here. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, drowsiness, non-allergic skin rash an...

i went to my docter and he give me nitrofur-macr 100mg i got and i still have bad gas and diarria,i thought i still had my infection,so o went to see a different docter and he give me a scripe of laxative i,ve been taking sometime,he never told me that it was the side effects of the drug,i did,nt know until i looked up the drug.don,t take this drug. ## I'm sorry, but I am somewhat confused by your post. Nitrofurantoin is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of infections and it can cause diarrhea as a side effect. And, if you are suffering from diarrhea, it makes no sense for another doctor to give you a laxative. In addition, all medications carry the risk of side effects, even over the counter products. What is the specific problem you've been experiencing? Can yo...

i am currently using Clacee for my throat infection and it makes me feel extremely hungry all the time. Is this normal? ## Hi, Kylie! How are you doing? Have things gotten any better, yet? And no, that isn't a normal side effect of this antibiotic. Have you consulted your doctor? You should do so, because it can cause some other stomach issues, which you may be mistaking for hunger pangs. Learn more Clacee details here.

I was told that the first sign of infection in the mouth is pain will this help ## It would be more accurate to say that pain in the mouth might be the sign of an infection, because pain could also be caused by issues other than an infection. The tablet with this marking is a generic for Bactrim, which is an antibiotic that's used to treat various types of infections and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, diarrhea and non-allergic skin rash. Learn more Bactrim details here. However, you should't take it, unless your doctor or dentist has instructed you to do so. If you don't have an infection, taking it creates the risk of your developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. This is also a possibility if you do have an infection, but don't have enough of the an...

I have stuffed sinus .. cough and are tired/weak. I have amox/K Clav 500-125 .. would it be helpful towards these symptoms?? How many pre day should I take? ## Amoxicillin is a antibotic.It is used to treat bacterial infections. A cold is a viral infection, so it would do no good. ## @Becky Burnside, BL is correct, the Amoxicillin will not be effective for the cold. If I can recommend anything, it would be to intake as many fruits/vegetables as possible (especially citrus fruits due to their high vitamin C content!). Also, water with real lemon juice is a really easy way to build your immune system and should definitely help to fight off the cold sooner. I've read that it's most beneficial to drink the amount of water (in ounces) that is equal to half of your body weight. For ex...
