Augmentin and pseudomonas
Common Questions and Answers about Augmentin and pseudomonas
augmentin
I am feeling a bit uncomfortable in and around penis, testicles and around. I did some urine and STI tests and all came clear. I did a semen culture and it came positive for pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Is pseudomonas aeruginosa serious in semen and does it impacts fertility if left untreated?
Please suggest what is the right treatment for it when it is present in semen.
Thank you!
The wound was cultured and came back positive for Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. She endured some excruciating treatment attempts to close the incision and treat the infection. (oral antibiotics only at this time Augmentin and Ciprofloxacin). Her pain continued to get worse, she was unable to turn her head, raise her eyebrows, bend over, or brush or wash her long, beautiful hair because the pain was so severe. The Dr. kept asking her to give it some time.
My daughter had pseudomonas several months ago and had to have her ear swabbed and cultured. The pseudomonas was resistant to all the drug classses but the newest cyclosporin. She has had chronic ear infections since she was a baby (she's 13).
t happen all of the time I guess it wakes me up. I have chronic pseudomonas bronchiectasis, and a disk in my lower back and one in the middle of my back that both need to have surgery. I haven't been ready to address this with a doctor, I am wondering if they could be causing this, but I doubt it.
My 7y girl has had uti for three years and has several types of antibiotics last one was amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,57mg. She now has Pseudomonas and doctor wants to give her cipro. think I should handle this differantly?
I dont know what to do anymore, i feel desperate and frustrated and need some help and soon because my doctor doesnt seem to be worried, if id never gone for a second opinion they would have never discovered the bacteria he kept telling me i was ok, but the terrible headaches said otherwise. And now my third surgery has to be done by him because no other doctor will touch me.

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.
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.
My dad is 81 and has chronic pseudomonas infection in his lungs. He also has COPD. This is his 4th round of getting this infection in 3 years. He just got out of the hospital from a 5 day stay 3 weeks ago and did a 10 day pick line antibiotic. His Dr called today and he still has the infection. They are calling it a 4+ pseudomonas infection. (whatever that means). He has done every antibiotic there is (pill form, nebulizer, inhalers and pick line) for this and nothing is working anymore.
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!!
I couldnt sleep the pain was so bad =( till i went to a diffrent DR and he took a swab of my ear and it come back saying that i had (pseudomonas) i didnt know what to think.....so the DR give me a script for CIPROX hc 500 tablets and ear drops ..within 2weeks the infection was gone =).........
I have been a patient at your facility in January, 2009, but no treatment was given to get rid of my pseudomonas. I really want this to be cured and know there has to be a way to cure it, even if it is a clinical trial. I am a 56 year old female. I am currently doing as much research as I can to find a cure for this, even if it means being treated outside of the U.S. because they may not be treating it here yet. Please advise if you have any treatments known and/or available.
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.
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.
I started having issues with my ears in aug. 2013, started with them just feeling "full", then it turned into me having retracted ear drums... I went to see an ENT (after MANY) attempts to have my normal Dr. Figure out what was going on, and many courses of antibiotics. ENT did hearing test, looked in my ears, confirmed ear drums were retracted, and I got more antibiotics... This went on for 7 mths....
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.
I take care of a quad male that has a trach in place. His sputum had tested positive for MRSA, pseudomonas, and trichomonas. I had no idea you could get and std in your sputum and i'm even more curious to find out how that happened. Is that really a possibility and how could he have gotten it in his sputum?
2) Could bulbar urethritis and the stricture been infective from NGU (pseudomonas? and could that have caused the stricture of vice versa? 3) Dangerous to sleep with wife?
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?
Welcome --
I don't know about Pseudomonas, andn as mojo says, that's something your doc will have to speak to, and I would put in a call and tell the person on the phone what's going on so they can advise you sooner rather than later.
The nice dark, moist sinuses are definitely areas where fungal or bacterial infections can hide and multiply, and the sooner you get it sorted out the better.
