640719 tn?1277140030 Thank you so much for giving me hope! I don't believe I have ever taken Augmentin so hopefully I can tolerate it and have a cure for my not so frequent UTI's. I really do try NOT to take antiboiotic's unless my situation becomes urgent. Thank you again for taking the time to give me hope and help!!!
Avatar f tn I had a hysterectomy 4 weeks ago (large broad lig fibroid) and I hoped that might make a difference. last week got an infection, was given augmentin for 7 days (again) and 2 days after finishing the course, it is now back again. Heavily swollen, very tired, uristrip showing white blood cells, protein, cloudy pee. I questioned my doc as to why they keep coming back and she says she doesn't know, she is not a 'clever doctor', and just keeps giving me 7 days augmentin.
Avatar m tn I got a yeast/bacterial infection after 10 days Augmentin (I also have Atrophic Vaginitis) so I went in to get an exam and started discussing my husband having an affair within the last 18 months. He said there was no sexual encounter, however the physician decided to do testing as a baseline. My HSV 1 was 43.10 and my HSV 2 was 1.2. I have never had any female infections or issues (we have been together for 30+ yrs). However, since October of 2015, I have had 2 UTI's and now this infection.
Avatar m tn First off I'll start with her history. She was hositalized with pyelonephritis 2-05 in both kidneys, I believe the right was worse as far as CT shown. Then she saw nephorologist a couple of times and had kidney ultrasound because he said it wasn't very common for a 13 yr old to have actual pyelo. Now she is 16 and for the past few months she has had a kidney\bladder infection of some sort every month. She has complained of back pain almost daily for several years.
Avatar n tn Thank you for all your insights. Bought my meds now. I will be taking augmentin 3x a day for u days. I hope everything will be ok.
Avatar n tn My 11 year old GSD who was spayed at 10 months has been having constant vaginal bleeding / dripping for almost a month now. Our vet checked a CBC, Chemistry Panel and Urinalysis which showed no anemia, normal platelets, normal renal function and no indication of a urinary tract infection or hematuria. Physical exam is unremarkable except for oozing blood at the vaginal orrifice. We initially tried a course of augmentin suspecting a UTI on the first visit before the urinalysis.
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 I've always for some reason had UTI's and I don't know why cause I'm 22 and healthy, but for some reason they always come about every now and then. Well, today I was going to the bathroom quite frequently and I barely could urinate. I went again and I was in SO much pain. It felt as if glass or a razor blade was about to come out of me and I had such sharp, burning pain. I've had infections before, but this was the first time it happened to me like this.
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 m tn I should add that I was prescribed Augmentin at the same time post operatively for a knee arthroscope and wondered whether this could interfere with the efficacy of the azithromycin?
Avatar n tn 5) – increase from week 11 to 15. Now, my FP has called in for another antibiotic for UTI. I need to go back and collect the reports. I read UTI in males is rare. My questions: 1. Should I be concerned about HIV and go for another test now? Given that I tested negative on day 39 (Ag/Ab) and 79 (Ab). I read you reply the forums that 11 weeks should be highly reliable for low risk and one can move on. 2. Is there a possibility of late seroconversion (esp. on a low risk exposure)? 3.
Avatar n tn //www.medhelp.org/drugs/Augmentin/show/5288 It may be Augmentin or it may be something else. I think you should mention this to your doctor.

Avatar f tn I was wondering whether or not anyone has had experience with an recurring UTI's? I have been having this problem lately, and am looking for a connection. I have been dx'd for 16 years, and I think until recently have only experienced one.
Avatar f tn Your bf probably is clean but uti and bv if you are having unprotected sex you both need to get treated for it or it will conti to reoccur if only one partner gets treated for it. Been there done that.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had UTI'S all throughout pregancy? Just finished antibiotics and found our that I still have one when I went to the ER last night! Hope the medicine they give me finally makes it go away.
874521 tn?1424116797 I have a question about the PREVENTION of UTI's in male cats, what is the best diet...I know it has to be low in one ingredient but I can't remember which? Neither of my cats will eat the Vet formulas of Science Diet or Medical what are other suggestion for a good diet to prevent crystals forming.
Avatar f tn Hi there. Well, no. That shouldn't be related. UTI's are caused by bacteria entering the bladder. Meth is wicked stuff but it is not the cause of UTI's. I would consider, though, that he is unsafe to live with. If he is smoking it or worse, making it where you live, that is toxic. They condemn properties that have been poisoned by meth in my area. I am thinking that meth use would be a deal breaker for me and I'd be out of there. good luck and sorry this is the case.
Avatar f tn But when I went to the doctors they told me I had gonorrhea and a UTI!!! So I was treated for both and felt okay but I still felt off. So about two weeks later it started to hurt when I would use the restroom and so I went back to the doctors and they said it was just a UTI and I'm about half way done with my antibiotics and I still feel weird! Is it possible that I still have gonorrhea? Or could it be something else? And why is it still hurting when I pee?
Avatar f tn Although Augmentin kills certain types of bacteria and is used for lower respiratory, ear, urinary and sinus bacterial infections, does not necessarily mean it will get help a sore throat. To find out what type of bacteria is causing the sore throat and which antibiotic will kill that bacteria is to get a swab taken of your throat to identify the bacteria and then the correct antibiotic will be prescribed.
Avatar f tn 4 days on augmentin 825 for a chronic dental infection (now a bone infection), I started having major swelling in my hands. This is new, I've never had swelling like this. Yesterday my one hand looked freakishly red and swollen. It was so swollen, that when I straightened out my hand (which was difficult), everything turned white, inbetween the redness. Anyway, I tried going off the augmentin (I'm taking it in conjunction with clindamycin), and today I feel much less swollen.
Avatar n tn My boyfriend was prescribed 1 gram of Augmentin twice daily for 3 weeks for acute bacterial prostatitis. He hasn't actually received his urine test results yet though, so not sure what type of bacteria it actually is. Is this an appropriate treatment?
Avatar f tn If you have a viral tonsillitis, it will get better on its own in time (about the same time that was quoted for the Augmentin!). But you are also taking Augmentin. So, won't it be tempting to say that the Augmentin is what made you better? We'll never know. It's not necessarily a bad idea, taking both -- especially if they are truly unsure and they're trying to get you better as fast as possible.
Avatar n tn I recently took augmentin for three days, had to discontinue because of allergic reaction ( rash, jitters, fever) Today I awoke with a stiff neck which progressively became worse as the day went on. Now 12 hours later the pain has spread down my back and to all my joints. Could this bee the Augmentin or something more severe. This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.org/posts/show/339839'>severe sudden onset of joint pain in all joints</a>.
Avatar f tn I have white/clear mucous and have used augmentin and azithromax one course after another (augmentin first and then azithromax) given by my doctor but the cough is not gone. My chest x ray is normal but the doctor could not do a pft because of my continuous cough at that time. My blood work for pneumonia diabetes and cholesterol are all good. sinus CT scan is normal too. Is this viral is it okay to take several months for cough to go away. I have no wheezing or asthma history.
