Avatar n tn Short courses of antibiotics have long-term impact on microbial flora of human gut Short courses of antibiotics can leave normal gut bacteria harbouring antibiotic resistance genes for up to two years after treatment, say scientists writing in the latest issue of Microbiology, published on 3 November.
Avatar f tn These issues sparked the interest in developing alternative therapeutic strategies. This review provides a quick synopsis of the currently approved and available antibiotics for BV treatment while presenting an overview of novel strategies that are being explored for the treatment of this disorder, with special focus on natural compounds that are able to overcome biofilm-associated antibiotic resistance.

Avatar m tn In that case your chances of catching anything are slim, furthermore taking antiobiotics for absolutely no reason can increase your resistance to antibiotics. So when/if you REALLY need to take them one day they might not work.
Avatar n tn My question is whether somone could show resistance to antibiotics within the first weeks of exposure or is this more common in more advanced stages of HIV/AIDS?
Avatar f tn Hi Im a 29 year old male who had insulin resistance. I had neuropathy that affect me greatly at 19 to the point I could not walk.

163305 tn?1333668571 —Cóilín Nunan, Alliance to Save Our Antibiotics News outlets reported Monday that UK government scientists have found a gene, known as mcr-1, that gives bacteria resistance to colistin, often used by doctors when other antibiotics fail. Such resistance was first discovered last month in China, and in the past few weeks, the resistance gene has also been found in Denmark, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, and in several Asian and African countries.
Avatar m tn Girl A is prescribed Deoxycycline twice daily for 1 week (Girl A never tested, but took antibiotics due to exposure) - Advised not to have sex for 7 days.
Avatar m tn The right ventricle should be smaller, and if it is abnormally large that could indicate the heart is pumping against higher than normal resistance. The resistance can be due to stenosis (narrowing) of pulmonary vessel, thrombosis (blood clots) and/or pulmonary emboli (clots), etc. Worst case scenario. Thanks for the quesiton, and if you have any further quesitons or comments you are welcome to respond.
Avatar f tn What I would like to know is if the people who have not taken many antibiotics in their lifetimes are as at risk as those who have built a resistance to them. Is this mutant bacteria dangerous because the antibiotics don't work for a person who has a resistance or because it is so powerful that even if an antibiotic works well for you, the bacterial strain is so powerful, it will override any known antibiotic? Does this question make sense?
Avatar f tn A potentially dangerous sexually transmitted disease that infects millions of people each year is growing resistant to drugs and could soon become untreatable, the World Health Organization said Wednesday. . . Scientists reported last year finding a "superbug" strain of gonorrhea in Japan in 2008 that was resistant to all recommended antibiotics and warned then that it could transform a once easily treatable infections into a global health threat.

Avatar n tn How long it takes to treat Chlamydia and Gonorrhea with antibiotics.
1691275 tn?1322327507 There are no contraindications whatsoever to taking two antibiotics and a strong arguement to continue with the first antibiotic as per doctor's orders and simultaneously take the second. There are slight variants in the way both antibiotics attack replication of bacteria. If you fail to complete the amoxcillin you risk developing an amoxcillan resistant strain. Generally medical practice is not to over-use antibiotics to prevent the development of resistant strains.
Avatar m tn Come yesterday, I had another terrible outbreak (worse than usual)... will these become more commonplace now? Is this a sign of HSV-resistance to the drug? Are there any other courses of action I can consider?
Avatar n tn Anyone have a good opinion on best antibiotics combo for across the board prevention of the bacterial STDs. What I mean is say u were exposed to something potentially risky and figure i may as well take post-exposure antibiotics. Which are gram positive STDS. Which are G negative. What combo is best to take care of everything non-viral?
Avatar f tn antibiotic resistance is very real and very dangerous. I'm a fan of not taking any antibiotics without a confirmed infection. I see every single day the effects of multiple drug resistant infections in people and it's not worth taking an antibiotic just in case.
Avatar m tn Hi, I had a gum abcess that needed 3 courses of antibiotics. Finally the lower right molar was extracted as this was the origin of the infection. This was 4 days ago but the abcess is still there and I have some throbbing pain in the lower jaw and ear on that side. The extraction site has white spots beside it.
Avatar m tn 47 y/o male here... thinking of ordering antibiotics online for the purpose of preventing the spread of any bacterial infection I might acquire from receiving oral sex. Cipro (500mg, single dose immediately after the "event") and Zithromax are my first considerations, but I'm having trouble finding "Z" in a single 1g (single dose treatment)... only 500mg 1. Is antibiotic use, as a preventative measure, effective? 2.
Avatar m tn TAF like TDF should have no resistance but ETV may have resistance. ETV in mouse models showed up with tumors but has not occured in humans yet. He said we have more data on ETV than TAF so he rather me be on ETV for the meantime. I also asked him about my mother if we should get her to switch and he feels if ETV has been working since 2006 for her, why change it. I told him I was concerned about the tumors on mouse models so he wanted us to wait until TAF had another year or two of data.
Avatar m tn Scary Stuff! "BOSTON – An infectious-disease nightmare is unfolding: Bacteria that have been made resistant to nearly all antibiotics by an alarming new gene have sickened people in three states and are popping up all over the world, health officials reported Monday. The U.S. cases and two others in Canada all involve people who had recently received medical care in India, where the problem is widespread.
