Amoxicillin and urinary infections

Common Questions and Answers about Amoxicillin and urinary infections

amoxil

Avatar n tn Be careful on long term amoxicillin. The antibiotics in the penicillin family can cause vaginal yeast infections and diarrhea in women by affecting the normal vaginal and colon bacteria. The better drug would be macrodantin 100mg at night if your cultures are sensitive to it. Long term cipro is also not good because it will cause antibiotic resistent bacteria to eventually grow.
Avatar m tn Should I get another antibiotic if the urinray itching / burning continues after the amoxicillin course finishes and the test results prove negative and it turns out to be a non sti viral infection
Avatar n tn Hopefully they gave her something other than amoxicillin because that anti-biotic takes a while to work and get rid of infections, but it does work. If an infection is not taken care of, with anti-biotics, it can spread, which is why I mentioned the kidneys. Though because she is being treated, it should not be anything to worry about. Make sure she takes all of the anti-biotics and she should be fine. Plus have her drink plenty of water and also cranberry juice.
Avatar f tn I had to take antibotics twice also. Very bad upper respiratiory infections. Levaquin and Avelox. It will not effect your chances at SVR and there are always all kinds of warnings about liver precautions on the medication guides but my hep doc said they were fine.
Avatar n tn Physicians prescribe amoxicillin for a variety of infections that affect the sinus, nose, throat, ears, skin, urinary tract and stomach. Amoxicillin is available in a number of oral dosage forms to help parents administer it safely and effectively to their children. Pediatric Drops According to PubMed Health, a website of the U.S. National Library of Medicine, amoxicillin is available in a pediatric drop form for infants.
Avatar f tn t going to affect your baby, its in your urinary system and not your vagina. Take all the antibiotics and it will go away. At 19 weeks, typically you're not able to feel the regular movements that you're able to track around 24 weeks. I'm 21 weeks and have yet to feel regular movement. I feel some here and there but nothing on a regular basis.
Avatar m tn Amoxicillin is used to treat many different types of infections caused by bacteria, such as ear infections, bladder infections, pneumonia, gonorrhea, and E. coli or salmonella infection. Amoxicillin is also sometimes used together with another antibiotic called clarithromycin (Biaxin) to treat stomach ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. This combination is sometimes used with a stomach acid reducer called lansoprazole (Prevacid). Some women be having some dirty vagina.
Avatar m tn opportunistic infections occur when fecal bacteria are introduced to urinary tract or when normal urination or immune function is impaired" Source: https://courses.lumenlearning.com/cuny-kbcc-microbiologyhd/chapter/bacterial-infections-of-the-urinary-system/ More reading here... https://www.medhelp.org/posts/Urology/Enterococcus-faecalis-in-Semen/show/750288 https://www.medhelp.org/posts/Urology/bacterial-infection-on-penis/show/2155334 https://www.medhelp.
Avatar f tn And in any case, urinary tract infections and urosepsis are no more common in people with or without HIV infection. As Dr. Hook advised last time, you had a sexual experience that carried no significant risk of HIV. I'm sorry to hear of your recent urosepsis. But it has nothing to do with HIV or with your sexual adventures in Melbourne last year.
Avatar n tn Amoxicillin is used for bacterial infections, such as some respiratory infections, infections of the urine, ear infections, and dental abscesses. It works by killing the bacteria causing the infection. You may also be prescribed it to prevent an infection from occurring if you are at particular risk of getting an infection. Amoxicillin is sometimes used to get rid of Helicobacter Pylori. This is the bacterium that can cause stomach ulcers.
Avatar n tn Besides this Group B Streptococcus, mycoplasma, neisseria and cornybacterium are known to cause throat infections. Other known pathogens causing infections of the throat are viral and yeast (candida). The antibiotic of choice for a streptococcal infection is penicillin but azithromycin is also effective. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn Welcome to the forum. Thanks for your question. Your girlfriend is right, that she is not at significant risk of strep from either kissing you or by oral sex. But her reasons (and yours) may be the wrong ones. Assuming you and she have been in close contact in the past several weeks, with kissing, having sex, touching, and perhaps sharing eating utensils, kitchens, and toilets, there's a good chance she already is carrying the strep that caused your sore throat.
Avatar n tn Because I had been previously diagnosed (and treated with 1000mg Amoxicillin three times daily) with a sinus and left ear infection about a month earlier he suspected that I could possibly have some type of resistant sinusitus and prescribed Augmentin XR (1000 mg) 2 pills twice a day. I had oral sex again with the asymptomatic guy again on 4/11. I was informed by the guy who developed gonorrhea of all this today, 4/14, and have not had sex with him since before his symptoms began.
Avatar f tn In children without urinary tract infections 17.2-18.5% have VUR, whereas in those with urinary tract infections the incidence may be as high as 70% Age Younger children are more prone to VUR because of the relative shortness of the submucosal ureters. This susceptibility decreases with age as the length of the ureters increases as the children grow. In children under the age of 1 year with a urinary tract infection, 70% will have VUR. This number decreases to 15% by the age of 12.
Avatar f tn I had my tooth removed 2 days ago and have been sufferning (before extraction) with a cronich tooth infection that was only discovered by my new dentist as he drilled abit further into my tooth than the last dentist, he then told me that my tooth was dead, the infetion had killed it and he wanted to save the tooth.
Avatar n tn During the past few years, she has experienced repeated urinary tract infections. She has taken antibiotics (amoxicillin, bactrim) for these infections. In fact, she has been experiencing such an infection over the past few weeks. I know that urinary tract infections sometimes cause hallucinations. So, what's going on here? Is my mother seeing dead people because she has some form of dementia? Because of her urinary tract infections? Or because of some other reason?
Avatar n tn Another surprise. Such infections from the teeth sometimes migrate to the bloodstream and settle on a heart valve. In such a case the valve throws off debri which causes strokes, blindness and paralysis unless you get a pig-valve replacement. If you have another kind of infection it may be viral, in which case antibiotics won't help at all. NEVER EVER take "just a few" antibiotic capsules. You should find a clinic.
Avatar n tn Today, nine days after beginning to feel sick, I visited my doctor and was prescribed Amoxicillin 875mg tabs to be taken twice a day for the next ten days. My doctor believes I have a sinus infection, hence the Amoxicillin prescription. I did not mention my unsafe sexual encounter to my doctor and I am not having any outward symptoms of any kind of STD. My question is, can you tell me what if any STD the Amoxicillin would cure if I did contract one from my friend?
Avatar n tn Im a ftm,17 Years old 24 weeks and new to everything and i think i have a yeast or urine infection, down there feels so raw it burns when i pee and im also spotting will this affect my baby
Avatar f tn I’m 20 years old. I have a urinary tract infection(coliform). A doctor prescribed Amoxicillin 625mg + Tamsulosin medicine for 10 days to me. I have a side effect after taking Tamsulosin (Retrograde ejaculation) or any other ejaculation problem. Is this normal or should I stop using Tamsulosin? Or will it (Retrograde ejaculation ) recover after stop using ten days? Should I keep getting Tamsulosin for 10 days or stop?
Avatar n tn Ive been really itchy in the vaginal area and it burns when i go pee. Could this be a yeats infection? I also noticed i have bumps that hurt. Is anyone know what this could be?
Avatar f tn My doctor put me on amoxicillin for 7 days because of small infection. Is it okay to be taking this while I'm pregnant.?
Avatar f tn It's common to get uti within the first trimester. I had one at 8 weeks, I'm not sure what antibiotics they put me on but I'm 31weeks now and my baby boy is perfectly healthy. Dr's won't put you on any medication that will harm your baby unless it would be more harmful for you not to take it. I have epilepsy as well and they took me off of the medication I was on and put me on something safer for the baby.
