how do I take the 6 pills samitrogen ## It depends what you have... Usually, 500mg the first day and 250mg a day for the next four days. Certain infections are often cleared with a larger single or two day dose. Some infections can require 500mg a day for a longer duration. Google information for what you're trying to treat, not the medication you're trying. You'll be more apt to find information about what medications are effective and the proper dosages for that particular infection. ## That is correct, if you have the larger 500mg dosage, it is usually taken once a day, but if you have the lower 250mg dosage, usually 2 should be taken the first day, then one per day after that, until you finish them. The FDA lists the typical side effects of Azithromycin as possibly inclu...

Can t-bact ointment be applied for active acne? Or any other type of acne? ## T-Bact contains the active ingredient Mupirocin, this is an antibiotic that is used topically, most commonly used to treat MRSA. Has your doctor told you to use it for this? If not, it is not advisable to do so, because it is not to aid in the development of antibiotic resistant bacteria when used improperly. ## Hey thanks Verwon, for ur reply.. but yes my doctor has asked to apply dis n i hve been getting good result. ## i have mosquito bites all over my hands which is like a tiny tiny dots with some scratch marks. my sis-n-law suggested T Bact as she used it for her son and found it to be good. what should i do. use or consult a doctor ## i recently had an accident n i've got my skin peeled off near my r...

my son is taking amox clav 600mg/5ml susp 125ml- is it safe to take with triaminc ## Amoxicillin/Clavulanate is the combination of antibiotic and beta-lactamase inhibitor. Considering this it is said that this drug can treat infection of the lung caused by susceptible bacteria. As for as lung mucous concerns, antibiotics slightly reduce the mucous, but it is suggested to drink plenty of water and a mucolytic agent like acetyl cystine in combination to antibiotic. Steam inhalation would further augment the suppression of mucous and severe cases may require nabulaization. ## This is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections.

Hi My daughter has 2 bottle of amoxicillin in the refrigerator. Never used but already mixed. The pink one. The expiration date in the bottle says January 2018. Will it still be good to use? The actual date mixed was July 18 2016 ## In my opinion it should be perfectly fine to take. I say this because I would personally feel comfortable taking it based on the info you provided. Depending on storage conditions many prescriptions can reportedly last up to 40 years after the listed expiration date (with few exceptions such as tetracycline). Harvard University and the LA Times both have articles online recognizing this... But since it's not even January 2018 yet I wouldn't even begin to question its efficacy (especially because it has been refrigerated)... Does anyone else have thou...

I went to a urgent care to get a prescription for penicillin for a tooth infection my left side of my face has swelled up so I went in he prescribed me amox-clav 875 until I can see my dentist but by my tooth being infected the dentist can’t pull it until the swelling goes down, but it’s been 3 days & the swelling is still here but the pain has went down some, last time this happened the doctor gave me amoxicillin and my swelling went down the next day, do I need a different penicillin pill I need help ## It's usually the active infection that prevents them from pulling it, not the swelling, since when the infection is active and in its prime, they can't numb it properly to pull it.

I was prescribed Cipro for Bronchitis in the hospital. I took only 4 doses 2 pills twice a day! I broke out with severe Hives and was given Benedryl, Predisone, Pepcid and nothing is helping! I am so itchy and uncomfortable and have been to the ER 3 times. What can I do. It's been 3 days since I stopped taking it and I am suffering so bad!! ## Hello, Chrissy! How are you? I am so sorry about the hives, it's happened to me before, so I know how awful that is. What dose of Benadryl have you been taking? You should check with your doctor first to make sure that it's safe for you, but you can usually take up to 50mgs per dose. And soaking in a warm tub with some epsom salts may also help. But otherwise, it's really just going to take time. ## Hi thanks I have a appointment w...

I had a sinus infection a few months ago and my doctor prescribed amoxicillin. Today I noticed the signs of a cold sore coming. Could I take the rest of my amoxicillin to get rid of it? ## Unfortunately, cold sores are caused by a virus, so an antibiotic will not help treat or prevent them. However, you could ask your doctor about taking Acyclovir, which is approved by the FDA to help prevent them. Its typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and stomach pain. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi, I'm getting lipliner tattoo and would like to know if I take Amoxicillin and Clavulanate Potassium 875mg will prevent me from getting cold sores?
