Avatar f tn Hi, Iam 12wks pregnant. I was given augmentin sr tablets to treat a sinus infection. The doc said it's safe but I am scared to take it.
Avatar n tn Hello, I am desperately seeking answers to my 7 yr old son's problems. About 8 weeks ago, he started complaining of tummy ache after school. Within a couple of days, he also started having headaches always on his forehead. The ped. put him on Amoxycillin due to a possible sinus infection. He also had bloodwork done and his T4 and TSH came at borderline. He responded to the Amox. for a few days and the headaches returned.
Avatar n tn I have recently battled a sinus infection following a head cold. Treatment w/Augmentin helped the symptoms of the SI, but simultaneously I developed a very stiff neck pain. Augmentin always makes me feel "strange". Coincidence or related . Maybe others have experienced same?
Avatar m tn About 2 weeks ago I started having some sinus issues, I think due t the weather and now I have had a headache for almost 2 weeks In both temples and behind my eyes. Nothing will get rid of it. I went to the doctor and he gave me 3 shots to fight the infection and I'm taking augmentin, but this headache has me to my knees. This holiday season has turned into a nightmare. I'm not asking for help. I'm begging for help.
Avatar n tn m taking the Augmentin, would it be advisable that I get tested? Is Augmentin a good medication for treating these types of infections? Who should get tested again, and when? Thank you.
Avatar f tn 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. could this be lung infection? Please help.
Avatar f tn I was also prescribed augmentin for a sinus infection around 20wks. It is a very strong drug that comes with lots of side effects. I got very sick from the effects of it and was switched to amoxicillin.
Avatar f tn I went back and got prescribed augmentin. I have been taking it for 3 days and now i have a pretty bad nasal drip going on in the back of my throat. I also have panic disorder and pretty much need to know that I am okay all the time. Is this normal? Is there a possibility of something awful happening from a nasal drip?
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with sinus infection about 3 weeks ago. I took augmentin 875mg/twice a day for 7 days. The symptom went away after taking the med, and it just came back again after 7 days. Please help....!
Avatar n tn He explained that it could of been Inflamed bowel disease and that it could of been from the Augmentin. He prescribed me prednisone for a 6 day period. This helped the pain go away and I stopped the Augmentin right away. While all of this is going on, I am still having my initial symptoms that started a month prior. I started having bad constipation and burning in my urination. Figuring that I may have an infection of some sort, I went to the ER. Nothing again.
Avatar n tn A pregnant woman I work wtih took it last week. I ended up with a sinus infection and took an antibiotic - augmentin (sp?) - 35 weeks and still going strong!
Avatar m tn I was prescribed augmentin for a sinus infection and I had no side effects while taking it. I finished it 4 days ago. Starting yesterday afternoon I had clay colored stool. I thought it would pass, but it hasn't. I have very slight stomach cramps. Is this normal and my body is just recovering from the antibiotic or should I be concerned?
Avatar f tn perscribed 2 additional meds. but I know for sure mucinex,sudefed, and robutussin are all okay to take. same for claritin (not sure of spelling) but id ask tge pharmasist about wether they're safe to mix with that antibiotic.
Avatar f tn Well my whole life iv been completely healthy then last February I got a sinus infection and was given augmentin and nasal spray and once I was better I started feeling dizzy occasionally and almost fainting then it stopped for 3 months and just recently it started again today it happened but it was slightly different my ears were ringing and vision was blurry and slightly dizzy and usually my heart races and I sweat I been to two doctors both said it was nothing and the er took full blood test
Avatar m tn I have gone to many doctors and they diagnosed me with a sinus infection/sinusitis. After taking augmentin I still felt horrible after a week and a half. I had a sinus x-ray done and the results cameback normal? No sinus infection? I am 14 years old and I am feeling so bad I'm getting behind on schoolwork and I'm tired all the time. I have lost 6 pounds since july or august and very skinny, my parents are afraid I am getting annorexic.
237053 tn?1258828426 Today I had an appt with an ENT for my sinus disease. She has put me on a two week course of Augmentin. I was curious that if I did have Lyme would this antibiotic help? Also, does everyone Herx when they start treatment on antibiotics? I'm not even sure if this type of antibiotic would even have an effect on Lyme (if that is what I have). Just curious.
Avatar f tn The mucous is yellow and thick and no matter what I try, saline, nose drops, etc. it continues to fill up. I do not have any sinus pressure or pain, YET. Today I feel sicker, mild chills, and I have a mild sore throat.. I have Aumentin which was given to me "just in case." I hate to sign in for 10 days of antibiotics if it's still the same virus. To complicate matters, I am into the second day of a 5 day colon cleanse, and wonder I one would cancel out the other.
Avatar f tn I've had a mild headache (2-4/ 10 pain scale) for the last three months. My doctor has put me on 6 weeks of augmentin, but it didn't help. I'm getting a sinus ct next week. I have enlarged parotid glands as well as lymph nodes. I'm dizzy at night and sometimes my headache gets so bad that I can't function. Migraines and tension headaches have already been ruled out. Any ideas? I would really appreciate it if anyone knows anything.
Avatar n tn Three days after exposure I was on Augmentin 875/175 twice a day for 10 days and then five days after Augmentin I was on a 5 day Azithromycin Z Pack 500 mg/1 day and then 250mg/next 4 days each. Both antibiotics were for a sinus infection I'm fighting. I'm getting tested for all STDs, but I wondered if my antibiotic rounds increase my chances of not having the STDs that can be treated with antibiotics? (Gona.
Avatar n tn I forgot to mention now I am back on the meds... I am on augmentin and alegra... Augmentin for 14 days... I just don't want to keep taking medication all the time... It has been going on for about a year + now.... I did have a bad cold but mostly I could not breath and severely stuffy and when I blowed it was green and bloody.. Then my throat became mildy sore... NOW finally I can breath again..... Just back to that same old congestion.... It tastes bad,,,, it is just not fun to have..
Avatar f tn I just finished a round of Augmentin for a sinus infection! Which I'm sure is the culprit. Also I use softsoap body wash. My husband and I haven't had sex since before the symptoms started. Thanks for all the info guys!
Avatar f tn Although Augmentin kills certain types of bacteria and is used for lower respiratory, ear, urinary and sinus bacterial infections, does not necessarily mean it will get help a sore throat. To find out what type of bacteria is causing the sore throat and which antibiotic will kill that bacteria is to get a swab taken of your throat to identify the bacteria and then the correct antibiotic will be prescribed.
Avatar f tn I am 62 and have a history of sinus infections, sinus congestion, headaches/pressure and allergy symptoms(sneezing, itchy eyes,et.c). I also have enlarged tonsils and have had tonsilitis over the ears. I often take antibiotics for these infections and they clear. That can average at least 3 or 4 times per year.
Avatar f tn I have had a mild paranasal sinus disease for 7 days now. I was prescribed augmentin 875 and I am taking that 2 times a day for the past 4 days now. I was also prescribed sudafed 4-6 hours that I have been taking for 2 days. Yesterday I started having trouble urinating and pain in my penis. I also had pain while ejaculating. This is still happening today. Do you think this is a side effect from the medicine or do I have a UTI or urethritis or something like that.
