Hello, Nikki! How are you?

This isn't used for any specific infection, it can treat various ones and that's usually what a high white cell count indicates. Thus, without knowing the specific type of infection, your doctor prescribe a broad spectrum antibiotic to see if helps.

It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
