Hello, Yas! How is your daughter doing? Has there been any change?
Giving them too close together generally won't cause dangerous harm, but if consistent levels aren't maintained in her body for the proper amount of time, it may not eradicate the bacteria and could cause it to develop antibiotic resistance.
Thus, it would be best to inform her doctor, so they can check, just in case.
The U.S. FDA lists the typical side effects of this medication as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and a yeast infection.
Is there anything else I can help with?
