Will I be ok, I cant just pick up and go to the like i wish I could. Tia. PLEASE PLEASE LET ME BEFORE IT GETS WORSE, I CAN'T TAKE THE PAIN ## sherry this doesnt sound right. doxy isnt usually prescribed for dental infections and not for a month, unless youve got something else going on like a chronic sinus infection. call your dentist! in the mean time try warm salt water rinses, and an ice pack, tylenol or alleve, you can also use baby aspirin, let it dissolve on the tooth, or clove oil. anbesol helps but only for a little while. hope some of this works or you karen ## It's a staph infection ## sherry staph i...

I have been taking Amoxicillin 500 mg for 3 days now. I'm suffering from really bad headaches and sore eyes. Could this be caused by the tablets? Or is this dose (500mg) too high? I'm taking it for having sore ears and a runny nose. ## No, that is the standard dosage, however, the symptoms you've described can be normal side effects of this medication, which should go away after you finish your course of treatment, according to the U.S. FDA. You may also experience nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. However, if they become severe, you should consult your doctor. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I started taking this (teva 3109) Amoxicillin 500 mg on Monday and it made my lips start to swell gradually each day. Today is Thursday and my lips have...

Can this pill be used for a sinus infection?

My doctor put me on Doxycycline for 3 weeks after noticing a bullseye around a bite on my arm. I was outside three days earlier in an area that had tick warnings, so she had a strong suspicion it was Lyme. But the bite actually had two puncture wounds and not the typical bullseye where you see a distinct ring around it. So now I’m thinking it might actually be a spider bite. I’m concerned I might be on antibiotics for no reason. Is it harmful to be on antibiotics for so long if I’m not sick? She did a blood analysis, but said it will most likely come back negative since I just got bit. I was told the blood work won’t show anything for another few weeks, so I could be taking a risk if I stop the antibiotic. Does anyone know if a tick bite would have two punctures?...

Doctor gave me doxycycline and said to start taking it if i got worse. I took a nap and awoke in a worse state. If i take one now at 3:30pm can i take another tonight at 12:00; then tomorrow go every 12 hours? ## Ideally, it should be taken as close to 12 hours apart as possible, according to the FDA. The medication needs to remain at a consistent level in your body, for the duration of treatment, in order to adequately eradicate the infectious bacteria. Its typical side effects are list as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I started on 2 doxycycline tablets yesterday, then 1 every 12hrs for a chest infection. I usually take Amoxicillin but have been given this. Thanks.

It is an eye drop and was wondering what it is used to treat since it was prescribed for an ear infection. ## I wondered if you could tell me what the recommended dosage is for this drug. It was prescribed to me in July and I didn't keep the insert from the box that had the dosage. I have the same condition again and need to know how much to use. Thank you. ## My husband said one drop every four hours. ## Can Polymyxin B Sulfate And Trimethoprim Opthalmic Solution, USP ## Just to add some clarifications to this thread... A sterile eye antibiotic solution can be used in the ear, but not vice versa, since ear solutions aren't sterile and, since it an antibiotic solution, that means it's used to treat infections. As to the dosage, for inner ear infections, it is 1 to drop every...

I have never been allergic to any antibiotics, but my Dr prescribed Betaclav 1000 for my bacterial infection. I've taken 5 already, one in the morning, one at night as instructed. But last night I got a rash all over my body that itches (res, blotchy, not raised) but it went away during the night. This morning I took a tablet again and my lip started swelling up. What is going on here? ## This medication contains Amoxicillin, and Clavulanate, and that sounds like you might be having an allergic reaction to this medication. It would be best to contact your doctor immediately, especially given the lip swelling. The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and diarrhea. How are you doing, now? Has there been any change? ## My dr put me on an...

As to your concerns, I understand them, but such issues are only possible reactions that are experienced by only a small percentage of people that take it.

I hve itches and they are getting infected i need to buy sulfacol to speed up the healing how and where can i get it or buy it? ## Sulfacol contains the active ingredient Suldadiazine, it is an antibiotic used to treat or prevent infection. this site does not sell nor prescribe any medications on this site. Have you seen a doctor about your infection yet? I think it would be best to pursue a doctor before the infection gets worse, rather than hoping to find a pill that may or may not be available. I am not sure where you can obtain it here in the U.S. but it may be most helpful to check with your local pharmacy to see if they carry it. In either case it would require a prescription, and you'd have to see a doctor regardless of the situation. Maybe you can ask him if he's heard o...

I am taking 3 pills of Amoxicillin everyday on a 7 day course, however it is my best friends birthday party and I want to know if I will be able to drink alcohol? Is this safe? ## It is best to avoid alcohol while taking a prescription medication, as warned by the U.S. FDA, because it may cause worsening of the side effects, including nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness. However, if you are approved to imbibe, please make sure that you will not be driving, or operating any dangerous machinery. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Is a small glass of wine or a beer ok to drink while on Amoxicillin/k 500 mg medication? ## Will AMOX TR-K CLV 875-125MG still work if you drink beer or wine?
