Hi, I have been prescribed Flupen 250mg to treat a diabetic foot infection. Since I started taking it 5 days ago, my foot keeps on swelling. Is this one of the side effects?

Flupen contains the active ingredient Flucloxacillin, it is an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of infections.

The swelling is most likely related to the infection itself, rather than the Flupen, but if it is not improving, you should inform your doctor as it may not be the right antibiotic to help you.

The typical side effects of Flupen may include nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.
