Augmentin 875mg-125mg For Cat Bite

I took one dose of this drug for a cat bite. I took it with food as prescribed. During the night I had extreme stomach pain so bad I thought I was going to have to go the er. Then I had diarrhea with blood. I was so scared. I called my physician in the am to tell her what happened but by that time it had cleared up. She had one other patient this happened to after one dose. Has anyone else had this happen?pxhxu

Not with that particular antibiotic, but I did have very strange reactions to a different one and it is possible with most, if you are sensitive to them.

Such issues can progress, so it's usually advised that you not try that antibiotic again in the future to avoid worse dangers. Mine has actually be listed under allergies with an alert that it not be given to me under any circumstances.

Did you end up taking a different one?

No they decided I really did not need it and I am fine but because of the rectal bleeding and my age, I made an appointment with my Gastro doctor and he agreed he was sure it was the antibiotic but I opted to have a colonoscopy just to be on the safe side and it was fine so it was the medicine.
