Common Questions and Answers about Augmentin and pediatric dose

augmentin

Avatar m tn so I took my STD test but before I got the result I panicked thinking of gonorrhea or syphilis and took Augmentin for 3 days. Now the tests are all negative but considering the window period for some STD, should I finish taking Augmentin as a precaution to get rid of the possible infection? Thank you.
Avatar m tn It is highly likely that Augmentin in the dose and duration I just recommended would abort incubating gonorrhea -- which almost certainly you didn't catch anyway. You can safely take the drug then continue unprotected sex with your wife. The problem here isn't just STD; you apparently are reacting emotionally to the sexual event, perhaps conflicted about your own sexual orientation or preferences. But this isn't a counseling service, so that will be all for this thread.
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.
Avatar f tn *Augmentin XR 1000 -- This is a time-release formulation and thus is a better choice than standard Augmentin. Dose -- 1000 mg q 8 h, to 2000 mg q 12 h based on blood levels. * Chloramphenicol -- Not recommended, as not proven and potentially toxic. * Metronidazole -- 500 to 1500 mg daily in divided doses. Non-pregnant adults only.
Avatar f tn I had all symptoms of UTI but no discharge, tested my urine and diagnosed with UTI and I was put on antibiotics. I think augmenting and I felt better after the dose.
Avatar m tn That dose and duration definitely would treat or prevent syphilis.
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 n tn Because I had been previously diagnosed (and treated with 1000mg Amoxicillin three times daily) with a sinus and left ear infection about a month earlier he suspected that I could possibly have some type of resistant sinusitus and prescribed Augmentin XR (1000 mg) 2 pills twice a day. I had oral sex again with the asymptomatic guy again on 4/11. I was informed by the guy who developed gonorrhea of all this today, 4/14, and have not had sex with him since before his symptoms began.
Avatar m tn I took antibiotics (amoxillin) and felt better after a day, but I did not complete the dose. A week later I notice my tonsils were swollen and had some white patches/spots. Consulted my doctor and he prescribed a stronger anti biotic (ampicillin) for which I took the complete dose. Saw no change (still white spots on swollen tonsils,NO PAIN). I further go prescribed augmentin tablets which I swallowed complete dose but nothing has changed. I am now confused. what the hell could this be.
Avatar f tn Also, if augmentin were to be used, the dose would be 2-4 times higher; and the duration of therapy should be 4 weeks. More evidence, I ypthink, that the dermatologist is not up to speed on syphilis.
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??
Avatar f tn So PCP is treating iron and adding vitamin d3. He advised me if I was his patient and we lowered dose from 125 MCG to 75 MCG and now hypo, he would move me straight back up to 125 and not tritrate me in small increases every 4 weeks. Said not going to feel better til I get back there. Any thoughts?
Avatar n tn My 10 yr old daughter recently was diagnoses with a multinodular goiter and elevated tsh. All other thyroid function normal range. Not autoimune but just started levothyroxine daily, she is on o low dose-1/2 a pill(.25mg) to start out. She has a cold-can she take over he counter cough meds ? She takes her Leve at 6 in the morning. Anyone else out there with a child and thyroid problems? Would love to hear about it-this is all new to me and scary for both of us.
640719 tn?1277140030 I talked to the pharmacist and they said with my resistance to macrodatin (not sure of spelling) cipro and levaquin and allergy to penicillin, ceftin, and now batrium, not sure what they can do for me :o I can take Keflex but I'm reading that is most likely not to effective in treating UTI's. I'm sure fear is not helping my UTI sensations. How big of trouble may I be in concerning this situation? What can they do? Any input would be grateful.
Avatar f tn was aware I had the seizure problem and prescribed cipro, which I had to call and tell them to send me something different. The one at the pharmacy now is Augmentin. Just need a neurologist`s expert opinion as to whether or not it is alright to take Augmentin with my myoclonic seizure condition. Do not want to start up any seizures. However, this UTI is hurting so badly!!! If It is too risky then I can`t take it!!!! Please help me.
Avatar f tn Augmentin will affect your pill. The other one I do not know about. It probably takes a couple of days for the antiboitics to get out of your system. You might wanna use a second form of protection just in case.
1099361 tn?1258662257 Thanks for your coments.. Man, I'm sorry for you, almost as I am for me... I have spent a fortune on my teeth all my life.. Now, I am disabled.. no insurance. none.. I have so much work done.. surgeries, bridges... There are at least 4 problems.. under both bridges.. and the cap fell off of my back tooth... this is a complete nightmare.. There is the old dentist that I used to go to... I got antibiotics... augmentin..
Avatar m tn Scared I called my doctor, yet he told me that it is a side effect that is common with the high dose of augmentin I recieved. I finished the augmentin and I have no sore throat just thrush I recently started an anti fungal for it though. So I have some questions. 1.When someone contracts HIV are symptoms spread out like this? 2. Is 6 weeks too late to have symptoms of ARS? 3. Do you think that the thrush is medication related or HIV related, would it show up after 3 months?
Avatar f tn He thought I had a secondary infection in the uterus and gave me Augmentin to take along with the other I am taking. It has been 36 hours and my breast is still really red and sore. I don't know what to do! I am worried that it may lead to sepsis?? Or should I not be worried since I am taking augmentin? It is the weekend, so I can't call my doc again. I haven't had a recurrence of fever or chills. Was the fever just a symtom of Mastitis?
Avatar f tn The acidophillus will replemish the good bacteria and help regulate you back to normal - at least a 3 week dose.
Avatar m tn Hello! Can somebody tell me if there is a problem if someone had 1st dose of engerix B 1 ml (1 month ago) and now we can't find anymore to buy 2'nd dose IF it will take 2 pediatric dose (0.5ml each)? Thank you!
Avatar f tn I had sex with a man I've dated a few times, we had sex and the condom broke after he ejaculated inside. My question is I started taking Augmentin 875 mg this morning for an ear infection, will this keep me from catching anything? The man is an overall health nut and has disclosed that he's clean, but of course you never know.
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.
