augmentin

Avatar n tn long standing sinus infection,had amoxicillin,now on 2weeks of augmentin,have 2 days left,developed itchy red areas on body ?
Avatar f tn I have white/clear mucous and have used augmentin and azithromax one course after another (augmentin first and then azithromax) given by my doctor but the cough is not gone. My chest x ray is normal but the doctor could not do a pft because of my continuous cough at that time. My blood work for pneumonia diabetes and cholesterol are all good. sinus CT scan is normal too. Is this viral is it okay to take several months for cough to go away. I have no wheezing or asthma history.
Avatar f tn it was back and this time it went straight to dry inflamed mode. Augmentin did not help. In fact from all the augmentin I got yeast and/or BV. I was given flagyl which worked for 2 weeks then it all came back with a vengeance. I didn't just have vaginal inflammation but ulcerated sores in my rectum as well. I'm still suffering from that as medications didn't make it completely go away.
640719 tn?1277140030 I’ll suggest using a combination of amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin) instead of keflex. Augmentin has been shown to be really effective in patients who are resistant to several antibiotics. Hence, trying it may help. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
Avatar f tn Sorry i took some time to get back. I developed an allergy to Augmentin after I wrote to you. i completed the dosage - a skin rash! Anyway I went to the hospital and had an ultrasound done which revealed an inflammation so the surgeon said he would have to drain the abscess. Yesterday I had it drained and spent the night at the hospital and got back today with more antibiotics. I have to go back for a daily dressing over the next few days. Thank you so much for your support.
Avatar n tn My 12month old daughter has vomited in the middle of the night for the past 6 nights. She has been sick- first a cold then an ear infection and was on augmentin, but her last dose was yesterday. She is fine during the day but every night it is the same thing- her stomach starts making load gurgling noises and her mouth gets watery and she vomits. She sleeps with us and nurses before she goes to bed and then once more during the night.
Avatar f tn Second Dr- said it is fungus,gave me Nizoral shampoo, after 3 days my face was having allergy reaction from the shampoo. stoped oozing is getting begger. Third Dr- said it is infection, gave me Augmentin. after 3 days i have rash all of my body start with lower arms and lower part of my leg. Fourth Dr -said it is rinworm and he doesn't know what i have in my body but it is not from Augmentin.(it doesn't look allgergy) and gave me Prednisone(for 10days), Grispeg(for 30days).
Avatar f tn I was wondering if anyone else has taken Augmentin. I was prescribed it for a double ear infection. Originally I was given acetic acid drops but they aren't working. I plan on calling my OB in the morning to double check. They are pregnancy category B. Although they are thought to be safe not many studies have been done on them. I'm nervous about everything. This is my first pregnancy and I am only 18. Thank you!!
250701 tn?1320974765 My lung Doctor called me in some augmentin because I have been coughing up thick yellow mucus. I just don't know if I can take it on treatment. Does anyone know??
808904 tn?1307057809 Saw that my throat was red (from drip probably) and gave me Augmentin and Prednisone. I have been taking them for 2 days not with not much improvement. FYI -.I have no tonsils but feel sort of a lump in my throat. Still cant breathe very well thru my nose.and periodically take deep breaths. Can these meds help and how long will it take till I notice an improvement? Thanks so mucy in advance for your response.
Avatar f tn The doctor prescribed me medicine for allergy and an antibiotic by the name of augmentin. She said that I should take a course of a week and see if I improve and if not I should go back to her for some further tests. Now I have seen an improvement in my health I.e.
Avatar n tn My feeling is she had a reaction to the penicillin, she has terrible seosonal allergies, the worst I have seen, horrible sinus issues since I have known her, ALLERGIC TO CATS, TOMATOES,NICKEL, GOLD, AND SOMETIMES GETS RASHY FROM LATEX. My feeling is augmentin+hives+allergy. So after all of this she tells me about the meds. She did have a rast test for penicillin and it came back negative, but an infectious disease Dr.
Avatar n tn //www.medhelp.org/drugs/Augmentin/show/5288 It may be Augmentin or it may be something else. I think you should mention this to your doctor.
1519309 tn?1290956580 Hello me, and my girlfriend have had a sore throat with mucus drainage for about 3 weeks now. Does anyone have any idea what may cause this? Allergy season is pretty much over up here, and she is on Claraitin anyways so we are not sure what it could be. Or a remedy for it.
Avatar n tn If not then please advice of the forum to post my query. I had taken augmentin 1 gm to be taken twise a day for seven days. This was to relieve sore throat. The soreness was relieved but then dizziness was still there. I also started getting headaches and back pains with some unusual coldness in the middle abdomen and cold hands and feet. My doctor ordered me to have the tests of vitamin b12 which came out to be very low.
Avatar n tn After recovering from a serious upper respiratory infection (Amox with Augmentin prescribed), I broke out in a terribly itchy rash. At first it appeared to be like scabies, so was treated for that. Then, at times it was hive like (even the scratches raised up like hives). It is not everywhere, underarms, breasts, naval, lower abdomen, back. chest, shoulders, wrists, hands. There are many small bumps mixed with bigger hive like bumps. Very, very itchy. Calamine helps.
Avatar f tn I also have to use Nasonex spray, 1x/day and allergy testing. She indicated that I would need allergy shots for the next 3-5 years. I live in Hawaii, at this point I'll do what ever it takes. It sound like you may need a higher dose of Prednisone, and maybe see an Allergist. Hope this helps.
Avatar n tn Hi, I've had MANY sinus infections in my life. I always start off w/ a sore throat and ear and have major congestion/stuffed up nose, etc. I do have sinus pain/pressure a few days of the infection, too. BUT, right now I have had 10 DAYS of NON-STOP (nothing's relieving it!) pain in my cheekbones/under eyes/head/teeth, but I don't have the other usual symptoms. I'm on my 3rd day of Augmentin 875mg 2xday and taking an antihistimine.
Avatar n tn t believe it has something to do with Augmentin but I definitely do! Now my both knees are tingling. I took Augmentin before but I had no problem with it! Now I am out of work and need to see an ortho md and blood works for rheumatoid arthritis , lymes disease, etc.
Avatar m tn anyone else have side effects AFTER STOPPING augmentin after the full 10 day dose? I have been off for two days and have awful sweating and hot flashes. I am male, and in relatively good shape. bp has been in the 140/70 range for three days. odd stuff. Ive usually had plain ole amoxicillin, but this stuff takes the cake.
