Avatar f tn On Tues. Feb. 24th I am having 11 teeth extracted. On Feb 12th I went to my dentist to get impressions made for my partials to be made. While I was there he prescribed pennicillin for a tooth infection. He said if this did not work, he wanted to prescribe Clindymiacin. I explained to him that I had tried that in the past and it made me extremely ill. He said that yes, it could cause some cramping and loose stools, but I would just have to put up with it to get rid of the infection.
Avatar f tn You can always call your OB and ask them if you are not certain. Normally if you tell your MD that you are pregnant they will ensure that they prescribe something that is safe for baby but always check with your OB to be sure.

Avatar f tn I had strep in Nov and was givin amox and even though I knew better didn't take the entire supply. I took it about 6 days, my throat hurt again about a week later so I took 3 more pills and was fine, so I thought. A few days later I began to have these red dots, I say dots because nothing is in them yet they are raised not a flat red spot. They do not itch nor are they painful. I went to my Dr and to 2 er's because nobody seems to know what this is or how to get rid of it.
Avatar m tn Months earlier, during a flair up in sinus symptoms, I was put on Amoxicillin for a short course but it was not long enough to completely wipe out the infection. My ENT wants to bring in the big guns now and is using Amoxicillin and Augmentin as antibiotics for 3 weeks and is making me take 9 days of Prednisone oral steroid to stop the swelling in the sinuses, starting with 30mg/day initially and slowly dropping to 10mg/day.
Avatar f tn Ovulation lasts only 24 to 48 hours max, but sperm can live up to a week leading up to that. That window of the week prior to ovulation and ovulation days is the most fertile time and when 98% of women get pregnant. I don't know where you are at in your cycle to help you know if it was a more fertile time for you. But do you know when your period is due? If so, you can count back. You can also take a pregnancy when your period is due. good luck and let us know how it turns out.
Avatar f tn I was on amoxicillin for a UTI, how long should I be off of the antibiotic before getting another culture? Amoxicillin has a 60 minute half life, very short. Could you go the next day to get a urine culture?
Avatar m tn As I said in my previous post speak to the doctor and see if he wants you to continue the amoxicillin good luck
Avatar f tn is it safe to take amoxicillin while you areabout 13-14 weeks pregnant and if so what are the risks to your baby while you are takeing it ?
Avatar m tn How long does it take to get this anti-biotic out of your system? It really sent me into a anxiety tailspin. I have been a little stressed lately, but wow. My Dr. says my anxiety and insomnia has nothing to do with the anti-biotic... but after reading some of these other posts, I can't help but feel that there is a lot of missing information out there about possible side effects. Has anyone else experienced anything like this lately?

Avatar m tn Continue finishing your amoxicillin first. See a doctor after a week since the start of your amoxicillin to get other stds test. Amoxicillin might not be effective against gonorrhea anymore.
Avatar n tn Secondly, you can ask your physician for samples if possible or ask if she or he can enroll you in a free medication program so that you are able to get the medication to take. Good Luck!
Avatar f tn My doctor put me on amoxicillin for 7 days because of small infection. Is it okay to be taking this while I'm pregnant.?

Avatar f tn I was prescribed Amoxicillin a couple days ago for strep throat and an ear infection and when I opened the bottle to take it I noticed that it smelled bad. I don't know if it's normal or not so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Avatar f tn Hi my son is 14 months old and is going through the exact same thing. I was not sure if the rash was due to the amoxicillin or not so I've continued to give it to him. He still has a days worth of amoxicillin to take and I'm not sure now if I should give it to him. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who has experienced this. Soo scarry!!
290867 tn?1333569278 Does anyone know if amoxicillin is safe to take during pregnancy. I am 19 weeks 2 Days and I am concerned. I went to my primary care physician because I have been having a sore throat and really bad headaches. My ob said there is nothing he can do because its really not pregnancy related and its gotten to the point of unbareable. He said I had a bad viral infection and strep throat. I am just really concerned about taking any meds while im preggo.
Avatar f tn Friday morning he wakes up with worsening symptoms and now unable to speak because of the immense pain. We take him to the doctor and he immediately diagnosed him with strep and prescribed amoxicillin, plenty of Gatorade mixed with water and water by itself. He has been taking the antibiotic for three days now, and his symptoms have barely gotten better. His swelling hasn't gone down one bit and he can barely even swallow his own saliva. What can we do to help him get better quicker?
Avatar n tn is the absolute positive worst course of action to take. You will end up (if the infection is bacterial) with an infection resistant to antibiotics. See a physician for a proper prescription and antibiotic. Many physician choose zithromax (the Z-pak) as the broad-spectrum antibiotic of choice for a lung infection.
