Hello, Jan! How are you?

This is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections, so it can be used for strep, if your doctor has prescribed it for you.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
