Avatar f tn t have achieved the level of relief they got even if they had been prescribed pharmaceuticals for their conditions. Also in cases such as these, no special training was required for the pet, just the fact that the pet was there was all that mattered.
Avatar f tn But this time the doctor gave me Clindamycin and the bacteria is going away in the tonsils but not in the back of the throat yet. So I made an appointment next week just in case it is still there and I would have to take prednisone all over again?
Avatar n tn No, it isn't, and it's often an alternative for those who are allergic to penicillin. https://www.walgreens.com/topic/faq/questionandanswer.jsp?questionTierId=600002&faqId=600008 https://www.rxlist.com/clindamycin-drug.
Avatar n tn go to www.northstartdogs.com, they have golden retrievers that are trained service dogs for kids with autism. I blieve the study that you are referring to in NY is the one where a woman who is a dog trainer helps the child train their dog. you can do a search on kids with autism, dogs, LI, NY and see if that links you to any of the articles. i have a 4 year old son diagnosed PDD-NOS. He had significant speeech delay recently his speech has improved tremendosly.
Avatar f tn My Cuz also told me that she uses Apple Cider vinegar on her dogs as well as in their water or food. I looked on on the internet, seems many use this. I have been trying to locate information on this. Maybe I will post on the "ask the vet area".
Avatar f tn s previous medical records that I like to have titers ran first, before I vaccinate my dogs for other diseases. He told me that I was wise and explained to me that, because of the research and his own personal testing on this, he has started to recommend to patients to check their pet's titer first to make sure that they don't need an unnecessary vaccination. I can only tell you that every time I've done this, my pet's titers were always within normal range.
Avatar m tn ) On the other hand, would I endanger my health by taking the Clindamycin after so many other recent antibiotic courses (including 16 days of Clindamycin in September)?
Avatar f tn I have Recurrent bacterial vaginosis (Gardnerella) for 15 years and tried different treatments (metronidazole, boric acid, probiotics, apple cider, hydrogen peroxide, I have BV every single time after intercourse. I was in Mayo Clinic but they can not help me. Please advise me a GOOD DOCTOR. thank you!
4522800 tn?1470325834 I would like to tell you the benefits of that plain little ole bottle of 3% peroxide you can get for under a $1.00. What does bleach cost? My husband has been in the medical field for over 36 yrs, and most doctors do not tell you about peroxide. Have you ever smelled bleach in a doctors office?? NO!!! Why? Because it smells, and it is not healthy! Ask the nurses who work in the Drs offices, and ask them if they use bleach? Did you also know bleach was invented in the late 40's?
Avatar n tn I wouldn't even treat for "possible infection" with either. I'd wait for test results to come back to see if you even have either of them. clindamycin isn't going to help for either if you should be infected with either of them. you are wasting your time and money by taking it.
Avatar f tn i would recommend making sure the dog is healthy and has all shots and if the dog uses the bathroom in the house wear gloves/mask but it is not dangerous at all.
Avatar n tn Prior to taking the Clindamycin, I had taken Bactrim for an infection and Augumentin. When the lump started I had taken some Augumentin for about a week. The lump has now been there a total of almost 3 weeks. When I went to the dentist on Wed. he told me I was now resistant to both of the prior antibiotics and he was giving me the Clindamycin now. Every time after I take the med. my mouth feels dry and I get an awful taste in my mouth. He also gave me 600 mg of Ibprofun and Tylonel 3.
Avatar n tn go to the health food store. They sell as a supplement for dogs a powder that you put on their food, that is yeast flakes, garlic, and vitamin b12. I mix my own, have 4 dogs and a cat, and am flea free. All natural, and it works. My pets are on it year round.
Avatar f tn Small dogs, especially small dogs that were bred by people who didn't bother to do health testing first, are predisposed to something called a luxating patella. In human terms it amounts to a trick knee. There are varying grades of subluxation, from grade 1, which is mild and causes them to "bunny hop" when they run holding the affected leg up, to grade 4 which is painful enough for them to not want to put the paw down at all, even when they are just walking.
Avatar m tn I have clindamycin 300 mg, can I safely double up todays med intake. To be painfree for Christmas plans tomorrow??
Avatar n tn I appreciate the antibiotics, but they haven't done much for me either. But have you tried low percentage retin-a cream? This may be a solution for you. Applied at night, the thin layer of cream can do wonders in a matter of weeks, and over several months, there's a big improvement. I've used it as an acne treatment, and my 50+ age mother uses it for acne, wrinkles, and overall skin appearance. She looks fabulous for her age!
6726276 tn?1421126668 One time we had a huge storm, so we brought all the cats in (they slept at that time in boxes in a mostly-enclosed porch, but for some reason that didn't seem like enough) and our two Golden Retrievers. Set out the dog beds, set up the cat sleeping boxes, put the animals in the room. One by one, each cat went over, sniffed the dog's bed, and peed in it. Can't remember now if they picked on one dog, or if they shared the bounty between both beds.
Avatar n tn It is about the size of ping pong ball and I have been on clindamycin for 2 weeks without good results. Doctor has me on Azithromycin for 3 days now. The swelling and pain is still with me and I'm going crazy! What should I do? Thank you for your help!
Avatar m tn Hi, thanks for your reply. I was interested in knowing why Clindamycin can't be taken with milk based products.
948202 tn?1245941816 It has hyaluronic acid in the form of a serum. Also, i use clindamycin phosphate lotion to prevent breakouts during the day. If i add this underneath the clindamycin, will it stop the clindamycin from working? Will the serum cause breakouts? It says it is for all skin types. Should i maybe use the hydrating complex after i use the clindamycin? I am 24 yr old female still experiencing some breakouts.
Avatar f tn My dentist uncovered the implant and did a bone graft over the top of the implant where the infection had eaten the bone away. He soaked it in clindamycin and I took clindamycin orally afterwards. Six weeks after that, I started feeling bad again. My dentist put me on another round of clindamycin coupled with metronidazole. A 3D CONE x-ray showed that there was infection behind the top of the implant. This time, I had an oral surgeon uncover the implant and clean it out.
Avatar f tn My dog is a basset hound mix, approx 50 lbs. My mom kept her while I was in the hospital after baby was born, so my fiance could stay with us. My mom has two big dogs of her own. My fiance took the very first blanket the baby was wrapped in to my mom's house, so all of the dogs could get uses to his original scent (before a bath). When we brought the baby home and got my dog back, she was super curious, but gentle. Then she started acting funny with me.
Avatar n tn I also got a bad reaction to Clindamycin a feeling of big lump in throat, sore throat and severe heartburn. In spite of the fact that I drank at least 10ounces of water with each pill. My question is since I'm allergic to penicillin. What antibiotic is effective for teeth and gum infections???? Thank you.
Avatar f tn Go to the doctor. Clindamycin is a high risk for gut issues.
