Hi. I have the flu and my Dr gave me Anaeroby 400, Moxymax 500 and Flustat... Is this combination safe?

It is always best to follow your doctor's instructions, however, since the flu is caused by a virus, antibiotics will not do anything to help.

The NIH lists the typical side effect as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.

Antibiotic are only effective at treating, or preventing bacterial infections.

How are you feeling? Has there been any change?
