Common Questions and Answers about Zithromax gum infection

zithromax

Avatar n tn I have two failed implants due to infection which did not respond to Clindamycin. 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 m tn 2) After the initial medication (1g zithromax) I had unprotected oral sex with my partner but this was after the GUM clinic said there was nothing to worry about (even though i wasn't called back by them). Would there be any danger to my partner from this? All sex since then was protected. 3) I attended a urologist & was diagnosed with non bacterial prostatitis during the 5th & 6th visit above. He carried out a cystoscopy to confirm same.
Avatar m tn Dr, In Feb. 06 I suffered a blackout. I may have had a sexual encounter with a sex worker. I had a girlfriend at this time (now fiancee). We weren't having full sex at the time. (All screens came back neg. except for NSU which is recurring). Main concern is any possible damage I may cause/have caused to my fiancee. July 06 - Tested positive for NSU (no known bacteria found). - Prescribed 1g Zithromax in a single dose. - Was not called back to GUM & was told to continue on as normal.
Avatar n tn i should note that i have been living with my partner for almost two years now. so i visited GUM dec 2nd 2008. i was given azithromycin (4 tables). i was so worried i sent my girlfriend for a test also. All her tests came back negative.She was called by GUM also and given Azithromycin too( heard its standard practice).
Avatar m tn , I have had unprotected sex with a girlfriend and after three weeks i experienced a cloudy discharge from my penis and also a tingling sensation which I suspect as a chlamydial infection or NGU. I took 1g of zithromax and also took 5days of doxycycline 100mg. bid. After the medication my symptoms disappeared. After a few days however my testicles ached after i drank a large amount of liqour. I took another zithromax dosage and this time 1g on the first day and 500mg for another two days.
Avatar n tn However, I would like to know if I have an infection or not. In England, I believe that they can tell you if you have a NSU infection with the PCR test by looking at the white blood cell count. If this is the case, why didn’t the hospital here do the same? Should I go back and ask them? Is there another type of reliable urine test that I can request that checks for general infection? If so what is it called? The PCR test was expensive and I don’t want to do it again unless it’s necessary.
Avatar n tn The prednisolone and vitamin E would be for the auto-immune part of the disease and the Zithromax should cover the secondary bacterial infection. Zithromax is excellent for upper respiratory infections and it also is effective against Bartonella. I would continue with the Lysine for a possible Herpes infection just in case. It is just an amino acid so there is absolutely no contraindications.
Avatar f tn s a godsend of a medication lol. I had a double ear infection, double sinus infection, and stage 1 phumonia(sp), and Zithromax had me cleared up and feeling better withen the same night of taking it. I was also worried to take it at first, so I called almost every pharmacy in town and asked about it, and I got the same answer, which is it's safe, and I even called my doc and double checked with him lmao. Zithromax does cross into the placenta, but not as much as other antibiotics.
Avatar n tn I had a gum infection about a month ago and the dentist put me on antibiotics and i took the full course. I thought that had got rid of the infection because i didn't have the vile taste in my mouth that i had. I worrying today because i can taste the taste i had when i had the infection. The other day i kissed and was intimate with a man and i thought it had cleared so i didn't worry about the infection that day.
Avatar m tn I have been given 2 x 500 mg capsules for my chlamydia infection but as i don't like taking tablets I'v opened the capsules and poured the contents into a cup of tea with 1 Teaspoon full of sugar. To make sure i have consumed the full dose i made another cup of tea in the same cup and consumed it again. Two weeks later my older brother has told me the heat would of rendered the anti-biotic useless and that i still would have chlamydia.
Avatar f tn I was given zithromax pills to cure an infection, the pills were to big for me to swallow so I let them dissolve in a little water, then drunk them. Will they have the same effect even though I did not swallow them whole????
Avatar f tn zithromax is amoxicillin
Avatar f tn After the test I was told that I had an infection in my urethra and the zithromax would cure it, but these symptoms are back again, I read that sometimes a singlr dose of zithromax sometimes isn't enough to cure a uretha infection and a longer course of anti-biotics may be required, it his true?
Avatar m tn I researched on the net and thought I may have an STI most probably gonnorea or chlymidia. I took a course of Zithromax but still felt discomfort so I took a course of docycycline, with no real effect. 3 weeks on and I now feel a burning in my urethra. It doesnt hurt when I urinate but I do feel the need to urinate more often. It isnt so much in my penis I feel it but the area between the base of my penis and my anus. It does get worse when I sit down.

Avatar m tn I received zithromax (azithromycin) for 5 days. (500 mg the first day and 250 mg day 2-5). The symptoms have improved, for example I no longer have the morning discharge that I had before and the stains in my underwear have almost disappeared. It is now 5 days since I took the last dose of zithromax. I still have some mucus strings and mucus debris in my urine. I did not have this before the STD so I know it is not normal for me.
1580703 tn?1651904887 You should not be taking zithromax for six weeks. Antibiotics are toxic, and should not be used unless there is an actual infection. Prescribing zithromax for six weeks, withiout evidence of an actualo bacterial infection, on the remote chance it might cure asthma represents questionable reasoning. There was a recent death from excessive use of zithromax. There is a reason they are prescribed in a packet with only so many capsules.
Avatar n tn I visited a STD clinic was treated with 1gm of Zithromax,was tested for CHlamidia, Gonorrea, syph, HIV- all negative. The irritation cleared up in 3 days. 3 weeks later the irritation started again. I visited my family doctor, he put me on Cipro which did nothing. I visited the STD clinic again, got tested for everything again, and came out negative. They gave me 1gm of zithromax which cleared everything up after a few days- but the irritation came back after 2.5 weeks.
Avatar f tn Last weekend he was coughing violently and was put on zithromax thinking it was a sinus infection. However, how his cough, while subsided, sounds horrible. I heard a commercial for pertussis and that's how his cough sounds! Would whooping cough make him not want to eat? He takes two bites of something and that's it. No fever, very active, some diarrhea, and this 'cough'. Also, would the zithromax take care of it if it was whooping cough?
Avatar f tn Hi I am currently three days on Zithromax (treating chlamydia) and I have a light sometimes darker Orange discharge with strings of blood in them when I wipe. The consistency is stretchy and I’m pretty worried. Me and my partner (also taken Zithromax one day oral medicine) haven’t had sex since our treatment (same day), as told to wait seven days. Could it be the antibiotics fighting the infection?
Avatar n tn I was tested positive with clhamydia so I got prescribed a single dose of Zithromax (you take 4 pills all in once), i took them last tuesday and now it's wednesday, been 8 days and I still have discharge... How long can it take to Zithromax to cure chlamydia?
Avatar m tn I was taking zithromax 500mg per day for 14 days to treat mycoplasma infection. On 11th day, I have noticed that my urine output has decreased considerably and the flow is also slow. No matter how much I drink, the output is always low. Till the 10th day my urine flow was quite strong and high output. I'm also feeling abit lightheaded. I'm on my 13th day today and took zithromax today morning. PLEASE HELP!
Avatar m tn 1) Would 5 days of doxycycline and on day 6 the 1.5 g zithromax cure chlamydia if present? 2) I used zithromax back in july for an ear infections. Would this build up resistance against chlamydia due to overuse of zithromax?
Avatar n tn I'm seeking an expert opinion on something that has plagued me for about a month and half. I had protected sex with someone throughout the duration of sex; however the condom came off while pulling out. Immediately a new condom came on and we resumed with no issues. Approximately, three to four days later I experience some frequency to urinate. Two weeks later comes an itch at the tip of my penis. I go to be evaluated at the clinic.
