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 m tn There are very good antipsycotics to help ease the symptoms you have described. I have read a few posts where people have experienced your type of problems as well. Treatment for hepc is very very difficult for some and no two people are effected exactly the same. I hope in time you find a solution that benefits you long term.
Avatar m tn Triple medication treatment of Interferon, Ribavirin, and a Protease Inhibitor (either Teleprvir or Boceprevir) are now the standard of care for treatment of Genotype 1. The length of treatment depends on your past response to treatment. I am not sure in which country you live and if the new protease inhibitors are available where you live. If they are available then it would be important to discuss treating with the triple medication regimen with your doctor.
1394098 tn?1385960134 With Incivek, treatment duration for naives and relapsers with an *RVR* or undetected at week 4 and 12 is 24 weeks. All others including cirrhotics, null and partial responders are advised to treat 48 weeks With Victrelis, treatment duration for naives who are undetected at week 8 and 24 treat is 28 weeks. Previous partial responders or relapsers undetected at week 8 and 24 treat for 36 weeks.
Avatar n tn Since your symptoms persist in spite of treatment with antibiotics, I do not see pursuing treatment with further antibiotics without finding urine or semen that is infected. A second opinion from a urologist with a particular interest in chronic pelvic pain syndrome would be my recommendation. You may find such an individual most easily by contacting one of the urology residency programs near you. S.A.Liroff, M.D.
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 f tn Those drugs you mention are NOT for treatment of HCV. Not sure what your doctor told you but you most likely don't have a recurrence. You just never got rid of the virus. Get another doctor and get on drugs meant to treat HCV.
Avatar n tn My boyfriend was prescribed 1 gram of Augmentin twice daily for 3 weeks for acute bacterial prostatitis. He hasn't actually received his urine test results yet though, so not sure what type of bacteria it actually is. Is this an appropriate treatment?
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 m tn I was diagnosed recently with NGU and prescribed 1g of Azithromycin. It has now been 6 days and the symptoms (dysuria & discharge - esp in morning) are persisting. Should I be concerned that the antibiotic is not working and seek further/alternative treatment?
Avatar n tn Maybe any of these medicaments was the cause of my diarrhea? What you think I should do? I would stop with augmentin but my doctor told me to keep with it for 8 days or the infection could come back. Thanks in advance!
Avatar n tn I have a yellowish thick penile discharge and a slight burning with urination. Since I could not see a dcotr yet, I started taking augmentin 500 mg that I had at home, but read that I should take a unique does o 3 g. am I supposed to take 6 tablets of 500 mg or what? I would rather take one 500 mg tablet each 8 hours for a couple of days. Any advice?
Avatar f tn I recently took a 10 day course of augmentin for strep throat or tonsillitis (I took the prescription prior to testing to see which). Toward the end of the treatment, I started to experience some mild discomfort after urninating. Weeks later I am still experiencing that discomfort, in varying degrees. Usually if I am better hydrated it is milder. It is never terrible, just a mild burning or itching. The location is toward the tip of the penis, but inside.
Avatar f tn As far as treatment duration with Incivek in the Illuminate trial a (study included 540 HCV genotype. 1 treatment-naïve patients) the aim of the study was to find out if there was added benefit in extending the total treatment duration from 24 weeks to 48 weeks. Based on the data there was no benefit seen in extending the treatment duration from 24 to 48 weeks. The stats are easy enough to follow in this link: http://tinyurl.com/clah489 It is read only.
Avatar f tn How long is your LP (luteal phase)? If it's below 12 days then shorter cycles may be a problem. Also, I heard someone mention on this forum that if you O too early you may be releasing the egg that's not yet mature. So, it's not the length of your cycle that's important but rather the timing of ovulation. If you O in the middle you are OK and your LP should be around 12 days. Otherwise, your LP may be too short or you O too early. I hope this helps....
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!!
1752948 tn?1466354161 When you read the part (further down) on length of treatment, you will see the results of the studies. In the one study that included Cirrhotics, there was no statistically significant difference in SVR for Cirrhotics versus Non-cirrhotics. "There was no difference in SVR12 in those with cirrhosis (97%) versus those without cirrhosis (98%)" The study included 16% with Cirrhosis (which would be 138 people with Cirrhosis).
Avatar f tn I am sorry, but most antibiotics can cause seizures as complications and some like erythromycin and related antibiotics affect the efficacy of seizure medications. But if you need to take antibiotic, augmentin should be ok, but please take a multivitamin B with it. There is no antibiotic (in my knowledge) which can be considered 100% safe, but like I said earlier, the incidence of seizures with augmentin is pretty low. Hope this helps.
237053 tn?1258828426 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 n tn "Oral" gonorrhea is actually infection of the pharynx (throat), not the mouth itself. You may or may not have had pharyngeal gonorrhea, which you could have acquired from the guy who developed gonorrhea symptoms a few days after your exposure. In view of your antibiotic treatment, most likely you'll know. To the specific questions: Most pharyngeal gonorrhea causes no symptoms at all. When it does, sore throat is the main one; stuffy nose is not.
Avatar m tn I would assume from the date of treatment. Does apple cider vinegar really work? Have yet to try it. I just have very small ones that can only be seen under light. Aldara doesn't do anything to them. I've been taking papillex which is a herbal supplement that helps boost your immune system to specifically fight off hpv. Your suppose to use at least 3 months to see results. I'm still on month one. I really just cannot wait until this awful disease goes away.
