amoxil

Avatar f tn Ibprophen and hydrocodone are not antibiotics BUT Amoxicillin is and can cause yeast infections. The yeast infection should not interfere with your period. It is very uncommon for men to get these infections through intercourse, but he can get it in his mouth if you have oral sex. The period probably won't flush out the infection, you need meds to help get rid of it. Go to Walgeens, CVS, or RITEAID and go to the isle with the condoms and lubrication, that's where the Monistat is.
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 ) but be weary amox can cause yeast infections so if you do have any uncomfortable ness or swelling itching or unusuall discharge see a dr straight away before it gets worse cause it can be really horrible
Avatar f tn During culture it would be worthwhile to test for yeast infections also besides bacterial infections. Viral infections are by exclusion and do not need any antibiotic therapy unless there are superadded infections. Viral infections are known to cause canker sores. The antibiotic of choice for a streptococcal infection is penicillin. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn will amoxicillin harm my baby? I've got a water infection and the doctor prescribed me them. Also, if I take them does it cause thrush? I'm curious.
Avatar n tn Had diarrhea, then a rash all over stomach, back, thighs, then yeast infection. I stopped taking the Amoxicillin and the doctor told my husband I was allergic to Penicillin. A week later I vomited several times and had cramping (like the stomach flu) and now my forehead has broken out with an itchy ***** rash like poison oak! Could the rash be associated with the Amoxicillin or the Sinus infection?
Avatar f tn No cottage cheese discharge, but lots of pain and itching. I have had many yeast infections in the past, which began this way. Should I treat with OTC meds?
7558356 tn?1410715309 Ive been on amoxicillin twice this pregnancy and both times they gave me a raging yeast infection! -_- i dont recall having trouble sleeping, i do remember the thirst though.
Avatar f tn Anti biotics cause yeast infections all the time:) go back and see if they can give you some thing for it
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 f tn I had bronchitis a couple a weeks ago and my doctor said amoxicillin and and z pack are fine when pregnant.
Avatar f tn I researched a bit to find that many parents have issues with their toddlers and younger children having mood swings and depressive behaviors after taking the antibiotic but no anecdotes about older children. I took a week off from taking the pills and my skin suffered but I was almost constantly happy and always felt great. After I started taking the pills again my mood seemed to suffer once again.
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 What's the fastest way to relieve the itch and pain from a yeast infection when the medicine isn't helping. I had a uti and they have me amoxicillin and I always get yeast infections with antibiotics bits its really bothering me and I can't take it anymore!!!
1315373 tn?1274193185 They now have a testing kit to let you know if it in fact is a yeast infection. But yes they do have over the counter meds for it. if they do not work or it comes back then I would go see your dr.
Avatar f tn Antibiotics are notorious for causing yeast infections and yes, a little irritation can result in blood in the yeast discharge. If it itches and has the curd like discharge, it's yeast which makes sense. You can talk to your doctor about what you want to do to treat it. either over the counter or a pill they can prescribe. If you are having unprotected sex, or even just sexually active though, you should have a routine STD check (regardless of yeast infection).
Avatar f tn Over the counter treatments are allowed while prego
502526 tn?1248887426 I have taken these enzymes in the past and they have 100 million live lactobacillus acidophilus cells in it, which should be great for preventing yeast infections...can you advise?
Avatar n tn 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. Since you are structurally normal and there is no obvious focus of infection long term antibiotic suppression may be your only answer.
Avatar n tn should i keep taking amoxicillin even if it cause a yeast infection or should i stop and treat the yeast infection
Avatar f tn My labia was so sore and swollen and itchy and I developed a small red blotch that was itchy right on my inner thigh. I also noticed my discharge was a little bit green, although VERY light green, and there was an unpleasant odor. Stupidly, I pretty much chalked it up to more yeast infection problems, until I decided to find a natural supplement (grapefruit seed extract) to help with the yeast.
Avatar n tn The usual dosage is 3 grams in a single oral dose. Ulcers Adults: For ulcer treatment, Amoxil is combined with other medications. There are several dosage regimens available, and your doctor will choose the best one for you. If your kidneys are severely impaired or you are undergoing hemodialysis, the doctor may have to adjust your dosage accordingly. Children older than 3 months: Children weighing 88 pounds and over should follow the recommended adult dose schedule.
Avatar f tn It sounds like you have a yeast infection. Antibiotics are known to cause these. Since it's the weekend and you probably won't be able to see your Dr. I recommend you go to the drug store to get Monostat or another yeast infection treatment. The pharmacist can help you choose one. I've heard some women say that one day treatment works while others say the 3 day treatment works better.
Avatar f tn I am waiting for a test result to see if I have Hpylori, I am allergic to the antibiotics suggested but okay with amoxicillin, can it be cured with this anti biotic (alone) and zantac as I'm also a rare person and allergic to ppi's?!? What are my options? I'm so tired of this pain and very worried!
928085 tn?1364782592 I had this exact situation ,i went to my doctor with itching burning redness and had a few Bumps,i was told 3 times i had a yeast infection and even in the er that said thats what it was.Well after treatment didnt help and some of the worst pain in my life i was frustrated i kept insisting is was herpes and they kept insisting it wasnt,they said they bumps were ingrown hairs from shaving ,they did a herpes blood test negittive.
Avatar f tn Itchy and swollen doesn't sound like a uti to me. It could be bacterial vaginosis or a yeast infection. I'm prone to these conditions and life is hell for me. Some doctors misdiagnose because vaginal problems are so similar. I don't know about the back pain or contractions. That might just be because you are further along?
1442483 tn?1284210716 Later that afternoon we received prescriptions for Amoxicillin, Metronidazole, and Omeprazole. After the weekend the nurse phoned me the pathology results, but couldn't see any answer as to what the cause of his gastritis was. However it did state Moderately Acute Gastritis H. Pylori not detected. I already had scheduled an allergy test for Wed. He tested allergic to yeast (and carrots, but no worries there for sure!). At the initial consultation with the Dr.
Avatar f tn My doctor diagnose me with UTI and was advised to take antibiotic (amoxicillin) though she advised that this is the safest for pregnant mum, I'm kinda hesitant to take it. Do u mum's experience anything of this? What can you advised me to to get rid of my UTI? Thanks!
