I know they say that even if it was to affect you could have in weeks or months after you stop but I feel totally fine, never felt nauseous, no sulfur taste in my mouth and taking probiotics still. Dentist wanted me to stay on clindamycin a week after the first round finished.
After seeing a dermatologist he prescribed me Doxycycline for 1 month and an ointment made of Clindamycin 2%, HC 1% in 80% h20 and 20% isopropanol. This ointment took away the red spots before I even started the anti biotics but once I ran out, the spots came back again...
t seem to have problems with doxycycline, amoxicillin or clindamycin. Clindamycin destroys my stomach though. I avoid cipro and zithromax.
Alternatively, you can take clindamycin for the bv and drink a boat load of cranberry juice for the UTI and water of course. It will take longer to clear up the UTI but it should work. It did for me in a pinch. It just took a couple of extra days. Of course if you are diabetic you can't.
Kristina, I had the same exact symptoms as you for months and I was diagnosed with chronic gastritis. My doctor also told me to stay away from foods that contain "sulfur dioxide" because it initiates the sulfur burps. Try mentioning both the gastritis and sulfur dioxide to your doctor and see what he says. I now take Nexium and I've been symptom-free for months. I hope you get diagnosed!
I read in my biochemistry book that our bodies have another way of removing pollutants. In the blood the toxins are linked up to some sulfur containing amino acids and then excreted by our apocrine (sweat) glands. Sulfur compounds are very smelly, they make our feces smell bad and the bad smelling compound in cat spray is very similar to what is excreted in our sweat.
my friend works for tropic skincare and i purchased a set of 4 and i use it everyday. calmed mine ALOT and makes my skin feel alot clearer and fresh! dont think anything gets rid of em. they come and go when they please. good luck hun. i know its horrid. i struggle to remember when i had spot free skin. feel like ive been spotty forever with this pregnancy haa.
I'm a 13 year old and over a month and a half I've been getting sick every other week. I start to get light sulfur burps around 4 pm. I wake up around 2 am with a terrible stomachache and awful sulfur burps. The sulfur burps are so strong it feels as if there's a carbonation and it makes me feel. Along with thAt I get really bad gas. So ill go to the bathroom around 6 am and the 1st night of this I throw up 2x and in the throw up is usually what is ate for dinner.
Sulfur Reducing MicrobesExamples of sulfur reducing bacteria and some other microbes that can use sulfur compounds from the food and yield hydrogen sulfide as an end product:
•Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium causing chronic gastritis, gastric or duodenal ulcer, upper abdominal bloating, heartburn and burping. H. pylori is diagnosed by urea breath test; treatment is by antibiotics.
Sulfur taste in mouth is usually associated with problems like post nasal drip (quite possible in your case as you had sinusitis), diabetes, liver problems and initiation of sulfur forming bacteria in mouth. Food allergies to sulfur dioxide (used as preservative in certain food items) and vitamin B12 deficiency can also cause a sulfur taste in mouth.
Since you have developed allergy or intolerance to alcohol, it can be due to either liver problem caused by antibiotic and other medication use.
has given me 10 days of clindamycin to be taken 3 times a day at a dose of 450 mgs. this is fine, i can take clindamycin with no ill effects.
HOWEVER, i have read that this drug is not commonly used to treat std's as there are so many better options. Is clindamycin going to work??? Thanks.
Hello,
For dandruff, eat a healthy diet. You can also take vit B6 and vit A and E which are good for hair and skin. Try medicated shampoos for dandruff. There are a number of over-the-counter shampoos available that can help. The most effective ingredients -- antimicrobials -- to look for are zinc pyridinethione, selenium sulfide, sulfur and ketoconazole (also available by prescription). If your hair is colored, don't use products with selenium sulfide or sulfur.
Hi I Was Recently Sick and Had To Begin taking an antibiotic called Clindamycin. Will I Be Okay To Drink Alcohol While On This Medication. I Have Read That This Antibiotic Doesn't Have Any Negative Affects While Drinking Alcohol. But Just Wanted To Double Check.
heat bag extraorally, and warm salt water intraorally) may help reducing the severity and duration of the condition and i recommend that u stop the clindamycin as the course is usually only one week also,long duration of clindamycin usually causes git problems
I tried cutting out dairy and that helped for 2 years then they came back and not only am I burping sulfur and diarreah and nausea and a lot of gas that bloats me and makes me look pregnant. I am now throwing up blood. I went to the DR and he put me in the hospital ( I am also a type 1 diabetic) they did an endoscopy and found I had ulcers no stomach lining. My liver produces to much bile and diabetic parisis( I do not know if spelled that correctly).
There is production of gases like sulfur, methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen due to breakdown of sulfur containing proteins and amino acids in constipation. Diet modification and intake of probiotic drinks may help. Drink sufficient water, indulge in brisk walking daily. Drinking lemon juice in warm water is helpful. If the problem still persists consult a physician to find the root cause for your problem.
Best luck and regards!

Hello Doctors,
I am looking for an answer to a disturbing problem that hopefully this site can help get resolved. I have some very strange preciciment and have tried to solve myself, and asked a couple local docters with no answers. I have hoticed a weird white casing attached to 70% of my pubic hair. It isn't painful, just annoying and uncomfortable to deal with.
The Two Doctors I have seen have been baffled.
