Amoxicillin and zithromax

Common Questions and Answers about Amoxicillin and zithromax

amoxil

Avatar n tn You will end up (if the infection is bacterial) with an infection resistant to antibiotics. See a physician for a proper prescription and antibiotic. Many physician choose zithromax (the Z-pak) as the broad-spectrum antibiotic of choice for a lung infection.
Avatar f tn t seem to have problems with doxycycline, amoxicillin or clindamycin. Clindamycin destroys my stomach though. I avoid cipro and zithromax.
Avatar n tn Fast forward two weeks - I was feeling fatigued, my glands on my neck were slightly sore, and I had a really sore throat. I went to my regular doctor and he gave me a 5 day course of amoxicillin to clear my throat. It worked fine. Now, I have just found out that the stripper works as a prostitute. I am really worried now - she is a sex worker, and may have had some type of sore on her mouth. Is it possible that the first blood test failed to detect an STI that is in the beginning stages?
Avatar n tn I think he/she should have probably went in the direction of a broad-spectrum antibiotic, i.e. Amoxicillin vs. Zithromax. I have seen Zithromax ordered for Strep Throat, but not that often.
Avatar m tn hpv, sphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and herpes are the risks from oral sex - none of those are effectively treated with amoxicillin so you are wasting your time and risking your health by doing what you have asked about. be smart about your sex life!!!
Avatar f tn My eight year old is allergic to amoxicillin, zithromax, clindamycin, and cefzil. We have seen an allergist, and he said there are no tests for antibiotics and that "we have a problem." Can someone please guide me in what to do next? My doctor was hoping the allergist would help guide us for future treatments. I am fearful for any infection like strep throat, ear or skin infections, we have run out of options.
Avatar m tn I went to my doctor and he did a blood test and urinalysis and also scheduled an ultrasound as well as prescribed amoxicillin for 10 days for a throat infection. Nothing turned up. A few weeks later I went back in still having flow issues, he prescribed cipro for 7 days, which helped for a little while and cleared up flow issues. In the middle of September I was prescribed a z pak for a sinus infection but now I was having some pain in my testicles.
Avatar n tn I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with chlamydia and tested negative for gonorrhea, syphilis, and HIV, I was prescribed the 1000mg dose of zithromax, I took the pills and ate two hours after I took the pill (the directions said take 1 hour prior to eating).
Avatar m tn anyone else have side effects AFTER STOPPING augmentin after the full 10 day dose? I have been off for two days and have awful sweating and hot flashes. I am male, and in relatively good shape. bp has been in the 140/70 range for three days. odd stuff. Ive usually had plain ole amoxicillin, but this stuff takes the cake.
Avatar m tn I wasn’t satisfied with the answer so I went to another doctor and he said my throat was irritated and he gave me Zithromax. I took the Zithromax and it got a little better. The phlegm started disappearing, but I developed pain in my throat. I didn’t really have pain before. Again I never had a cough, allergies or fever. At this point my ears started hurting and itching. I also had a minor headache, but I never had a fever. It also did not hurt when I swallowed.
Avatar n tn Yup. Zithromax is a good antibiotic. Second to amoxicillin only because its slightly more expensive. In about 3-5 days your symptoms should greatly improve. Make sure you finish all of the antibiotics still though. Chances are your dentist won't be able to do anything for you tomorrow, but will once you can open wider. Its still good to try to get in to see one so you can get an appt. for next week.

216175 tn?1226095585 t ever remember that I had a herx at all. I am now recovering from the flu, and my doctor wants me to take zithromax for the cough that is lingering. I have never taken it before, I only ever took amoxicillin. I am scared to take it because I am afraid that if I do have Lyme this will cause a herx. I know herxs are good things, but I don't know how in the world I will be able to afford the treatment that I will need to have if I do have it. Very scared right now.
Avatar n tn About the same time I developed an itching sensation that eventually progressed and became painful and small clear discharge. Also I have some swelling and redness at the tip of the penis. Went to the STD clinic on 6/4, was sampled and diagnosed with NGU. I also had a tender lymph node on one side of my groin. Took prescription of 1g Azithromycin and Cipro for me as well as partner on 6/4. Since then her eyes have gotten worse, as has my painful urination.
Avatar f tn t notice any herx patterns, my symptoms seem to come and go with no warning. I started Amoxicillin about two weeks ago, and started feeling better within the week, but then about 10 days later, the more annoying symptoms returned. Anyone know if you can herx 10 days after a change of meds? I thought it would happen within the first couple vs. almost two weeks later. Any feedback or similar experiences would be appreciated.
Avatar m tn I am a 45 year old hetrosexual male. On Nov 4th I had unprotected oral and protected vaginal sex with a commercial sex worker in Persia. I was intoxicated and the following morning I checked the condom and it was torn. I immediately freiked out. Noticed tenderness in testicles and slight pain when urinating. I had my 500mg amoxicillin tablets with me. I started taking 1500mg X 2 daily for 5 days.
Avatar m tn Hence you will need to get heart function assessed by ECHO and EKG, get kidney and liver function tests done and get a complete blood picture for anemia. Low sodium in blood, hypothyroidism and malabsorption syndromes causing low protein in blood have to be looked into. Please consult your PCP for primary examination followed by proper referral. Take care!
Avatar m tn Hi, I recently had an encounter with a sexworker in Taiwan in which I received unprotected oral sex from her. Two days later, the tip of my penis started to burn slightly, later on the burning moved down to the urethra. The sensation came and go but I did not have any burning while peeing. A friend recommended to use Zithromax 250 just in case which I did: first day 4 tablets, second day, 2 tablets.
Avatar f tn I am wondering if anyone else gets black stool after treatment with antibiotics (cipro, zithromax). I took these for a mild UTI, and I had severe constipation too. Yesterday, my stool had normal texture, but it was almost black. I did take acidophilous during the antibiotic treatment. I told my doctor about it, and he wasn't worried about it since my CBC tests were normal. any ideas?
Avatar m tn try looking for genetic drugs by going in to google.com and type any drug name with the word generic and you will have lots of materials to read and learn. I looked up the name for you and the genetic drug is Levofloxacin and I am sure you will find it a lot cheaper and can get it in the mail by a canadian pharmacy wich you can also lookup the name in google.com good luck and get well soon.
Avatar m tn ve got pain in my groin (right and left) and it tends to follow the crease in my leg and I actually feel ti in my hip ocassionally. Right side worse than left. Also feeling an occasional dull ache in the appendix area. I'm going to schedule an appt with a Urologist because my doc can't seem to figure this out.
Avatar m tn NOT DETECTED Interpretation: - 2. *Chlamydia SEROLOGY IgG (AB Index) Result: 1.5 Interpretation: NonReactive 11 3. Herpes Simplex Type 1 IgG (Units/ml) Result: 1095 Interpretation: Nonreactive 400 4.
Avatar f tn i recently found out that im 2 weeks pregnant and iwas on antibiotics(doxyclyn and metrronidazole) for bacterial infection before i took the test ,i want to know if this has affected the baby or me.
Avatar f tn The Amoxicillin stays mostly in the body’s fluids and blood stream. Meanwhile, Zithromax not only penetrates the cell wall where the Bb organism is residing (and/or hiding), but it also penetrates deep tissue areas, which Lyme bacteria also inhabit. When Lyme bacteria move to deep tissue areas they have effectively moved away from normal blood flow and away from fluid-based antibiotics. Antibiotics such as Zithromax can help to counter this survival tactic.
Avatar m tn If I suspect Mono, and took a 3 day course of Amoxicillin (10 pills) and developed no rash, can I pretty much rule out mono? Some sources state 80-90% of those taking Amoxicillin with Mono develop the rash, while I've even seen 99% as a percentage. I actually want it to be Mono, instead of something worse, but I'm starting to fear the worst. Have any of you had Mono, been misdiagnosed with Strep and took Amoxicillin, and NOT get the rash?
Avatar m tn Hi, i was diagnosed with chlamydia today in my local STD clinic, the doctor gave me 4 250mg Zithromax tablets to take which i did as instructed. A little later without thinking about it i drank one pint of beer. Genuine mistake. i was just wondering will the dose of Zithromax i took work now?
