Overdose Of Prednisone
UpdatedI have been put on Augmentin, Klarithran 500mg for a ten day period and have to take them twice a day. Was also give Prednisone 5mg (starting with 8 tabs per day). I accidently took them twice a day. Feeling nauseous, very dizzy and fainted this morning and seemed to have a mild seizure. Could this be from the Prednisone or the antibiotics?

Hello, Jo! How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?
It is difficult to say for sure which one cause it, since it is a possibility from all 3 of them, according to the NIH.
However, it is a situation that could become dangerous, if left unchecked, so you need to contact your doctor immediately, or seek emergency medical attention.
