No, there is a certain time period that it is given to help prevent infection, but if he remains negative after some time, you will be able to stop giving it to him.

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

Is there anything else I can help with?
