augmentin

Avatar n tn Hey July baby ladies, I am 35 weeks today and have been so lucky up to this point.........but yesterday I got a bad cold and am wondering what I can take to feel better. It's a stuffy/runny nose w/ sore throat, cough, headache. It seems like your basic cold but I'm miserable. Any ideas what I can safely take to ease the discomfort? thanks!!
Avatar m tn I'm suffering inflammation of the tonsils and taking now augmentin 1g (875mg amoxcillin + 125mg clavulanic acid). Also, i take some antiseptic and anti-inflammatory medication like bradoral 0.5 mg (domiphen bromide ). Also, I take a syrup for common cold and influenza (dosage teaspoonful 5ml which contains 160mg paracetamol, 1mg chlorpheniramine maleate, 15mg pseudoephedrine HCI, and 4.5mg dextromethorphan HBr).
Avatar f tn This season came around and sure enough, when he got a cold it went straight to lungs (wheezing, SOB, coughing) We started inhaled steroid (budesonide), albuterol regimen again. Proved unsuccessful to resolve cough. Round of Orapred proved unsuccessful to resolve cough. After four months we consulted with Pulmonologist. Switched up steriod to inhaled Flovent 44 instead of nebulizer and albuterol qid. No results. Chest x-ray and blood allergy (why not at this point) ordered and clear.
Avatar n tn My throat has been red for a month and over the last two weeks a breathing problem has developed (heartbeat, tight throat/chest, can't get a full breath of air). I'm fairly healthy and usually run about 5 miles every other day and get to the gym for an hour/day 3-5 times a week. I have been struggling with both of these activities and it's starting to get to me mentally.
Avatar f tn I have a variety of things going on here. I'll try to keep it as simple as possible. About 4 weeks ago I began to have a dry, unproductive cough that resulted in a dry/sore throat, as well as a hoarse voice. About 3 days into it, the cough became VERY productive. After about 2 full weeks, the coughing become MUCH LESS FREQUENT, but still there. In fact, I STILL have a cough (not NEAR as bad as before....but I still do have to cough).
Avatar f tn would it be ok to still take over the counter medication as well like Sudofed nasle spray and also take Broncostop cough mixture to help dry up my sinuses and help stop the horrible cough that I have? I'm not sleeping at night because of this.
Avatar n tn 7. Cough. Strep negative. Not really runny nose. Was on Augmentin but still has fever so changed antibiotics. I noticed yesterday that my child had red blotchy areas on his cheeks when we came in from getting out of the car. He also had areas that looked like a fresh moskito bite on his knuckles of his hands and he was scratching them. Then an area on his ankle too. After about an hour this all went away. No rash on arms, hands other than knuckle area, truck or legs.
Avatar f tn I have been getting over a recent bout of bronchitis where I was prescribed Augmentin (I am on Day 6) and Prednisone short burst (finished 2 days ago) I am still coughing quite bad but the fever has broke... but as of yesterday the phlegm/mucus I am coughing up tastes extremely salty. I have not been using any type of saline spray, or gargling with salt water, so I know this is not the reason. Is it the antibiotics causing this? Or is there another reason?
Avatar f tn Everyone, I got sudden cold, dry cough and high fever(101 - 102), it went for 23 days and came down with Augmentin after doing few blood test those ware normal. Then there was 10-12days i was batter and coming on routine. Again from last few days im having high fever (102 - 103)along with coughing that makes me to though up some chuck of food, some time thicky Yellowish greenish bitter test liquid. So my question is whome I should consult as previously i did MD and other one MD-PA....
Avatar f tn Augmentin, zithromax, ciprobay and histamed , but the symptoms of hemoptysis go away during treatment , and reccurent the first week after treatment.
Avatar f tn perscribed 2 additional meds. but I know for sure mucinex,sudefed, and robutussin are all okay to take. same for claritin (not sure of spelling) but id ask tge pharmasist about wether they're safe to mix with that antibiotic.
Avatar n tn I too have had a cough for 7 weeks now . It started as a chesty cough, took antibiotics and cough mixture. The cough eased but didnt disappear but apart from that I felt fine. It continued for about 5 more weeks then it suddenly worsened again with phlegm coming up during each cough. Doctor gave me 'Zedd' - 1 tablet/3 days and Bisolvyn cough medicine. I got a repeat after the 4th day as it didnt seem to make a difference.
Avatar f tn My 12-month old has been dealing with chronic cough and runny nose for five months. This first started in October of 2008. Originally, I was told by her GP and an Urgent Care Doctor, that her ear was red but she just has a cold and, "We don't prescribe antibiotics for a cold." When her condition worsened, her doctor diagnosed both ears with an infection and prescribed her Amoxicillian. Two weeks later, on Halloween, she was back at urgent care, worsethan before.
Avatar f tn I was wondering if anyone else has taken Augmentin. I was prescribed it for a double ear infection. Originally I was given acetic acid drops but they aren't working. I plan on calling my OB in the morning to double check. They are pregnancy category B. Although they are thought to be safe not many studies have been done on them. I'm nervous about everything. This is my first pregnancy and I am only 18. Thank you!!
250701 tn?1320974765 My lung Doctor called me in some augmentin because I have been coughing up thick yellow mucus. I just don't know if I can take it on treatment. Does anyone know??
Avatar m tn Hello, Lately I have had bad headaches, ringing ears, vision disturbances, cough?, ringing in ears, balance problems after get. I have gone to many doctors and they diagnosed me with a sinus infection/sinusitis. After taking augmentin I still felt horrible after a week and a half. I had a sinus x-ray done and the results cameback normal? No sinus infection? I am 14 years old and I am feeling so bad I'm getting behind on schoolwork and I'm tired all the time.
Avatar n tn It has become extremely difficult to breathe normal. When I take a breath in, I almost always have to cough. Any activity makes me cough and spit up mucus. I feel like something is swollen inside. I just feel like I can never get enough air into my lungs. I have been to see my doctor (first time a month ago), and he diagnosed me with a Viral cold. 2 weeks later, after coughing constantly, bad neck, face and headaches, he prescribed Augmentin. No difference after 10 days later.
Avatar m tn I have had pain in my legs and arms and headaches that come and go but am still struggling with this post nasal cough and have been put on augmentin 3 times a day during this time which I believe has aggravated the thrush . Additionally I took two morning after pills during this time even though the second encounter was protected I was nervous ... Last night I broke out in hives on my left leg that were gone this morning having left bruises and a small rash as to where I had scratched.
Avatar m tn After 5 days it became infected and I got a bad cough as well... I was then told to take Augmentin antibiotic for 5 days. After those 5 days I became better but my ears were always still full and got extreme fatigue spells... I then got worried and went to the hospital and they told me to do a check up, full blood work. All was fine, (this being 24,25 days after last sexual exposure with condom but with oral sex unprotected). The test included a HIV duo.
Avatar f tn I have just gotten over bronchitis two weeks ago and not much rest with being a teacher and all. I took augmentin for 10 days and it really cleared me up. A few days later after last dosage I began yellowish post nasal drip and tightness in chest. Urgent care gave me an inhaler and said to take Claritin D. Claritin D cleared me up on day 1 but all congested again on day 2. They gave me a zpack as a backup. Do you think this is something more? Chest still feels heavy not coughing.
Avatar n tn t yet developed the infection, as would be indicated by the presence of a lesion or a positive blood test, than it takes for curative treatment. The augmentin taken twice daily for two weeks would certainly cure and prevent development of syphilis. The combination of cefixime and azithromycin would most probably prevent infection but it would not be curative if the infection was established.
Avatar n tn I have had numerous sore throats in the past that uasually ends up with the cough. The cough then persists for averagely two weeks and resolves itself.
Avatar f tn I am hoping someone can help me.. About 4 weeks ago i started with a sore throat and ear ache.. about a week into it i started to feel a little better but had a cough that wouldn't go away.i finally decided i would go to the doctor but i woke up with vomiting and diahrea.
