avelox

568812 tn?1379165794 They can be very effective where nothing else has worked. Avelox is not typically used for these types of infections and you may not be able to obtain it from your doctor due to prescribing restrictions. Levaquin and Avelox are very expensive medication also. If you can, find an infectious diseases doc, and/or one who specializes in HIV treatment.
Avatar n tn For many years I have pains that pop up for no reason in joints and muscles and last for usually three to six months and then vanish. I get rashes and tiny red spots on my shins and then clear up. The rashes last about the same three to six months. I had these pains in both my shoulders at once, which almost never happens, so I thought it was my rotator cuffs going due to the work that I do.
Avatar f tn Avelox... I went yesterday and saw a lung specialist, he calmed me down and told me that i only have a little pneumonia in my lower left side it's nothing to be worried about. It's the bronchitis that's causing a lot of pain in my chest and back that I did not have prior to the antibiotics.
Avatar n tn t abated, provider considered trich, and mycoplasm as possible culprits). I was also put on avelox 400 mg for 10 days as well. Currently I have 6 days remaining on the doxycycline and 9 days remaining on the avelox. I have not engaged in any sexual activity whatsoever since my diagnosis however I still have a very mild clear mucus discharge primarily in the morning; the penile itching and dysuria has abated.
Avatar m tn I have had a round of Avelox a few weeks ago and recently Omnicef 600mg/day for 10 days and still have discharge. Question, wouldn't these antibiotics be affective against NGU, Chlamydia or Gonnorrhea? Thanks for the help.
1373852 tn?1307843048 t end up with avelox but took leavaquin that is a kin of avelox and six days later ended up having respiratory failure and in the hospital for 3 months one of which I was in icu on a ventilator.Since then I have had widespread muscular pain and multiple tendonitis as well as other issues so I don't agree that these antibiotics don't have side effects maybe you should read up more about the new black box warnings.
Avatar m tn After trying Doxy, Azithromycin, and Flagyl, the only antibiotic that finally worked was Avelox. The question now is what I should treat my partner with. I know from my experience that my NGU was passed sexually, and she needs to get treated before we can have sex again. The problem, is that she said she is allergic to Avelox. Another problem, is that since it is NGU, we cannot test to confirm if the bacteria is cured, and she is also asymptomatic.
Avatar m tn If the tendonitis is due to Avelox then yes, it can be treated as usual. The pain and inflammation will subside once the medication leaves the body completely. This may take a week. This is treated with NSAIDs, rest and orthotics or specially designed foot wear to ease the pressure off the tendon. Take care!
Avatar f tn Took Cipro and the sinus pain was not improved so that was follwed by a course of Avelox where I ended up in the ER by day 7 on it [couldn't walk on my own needed IV fluids]. Off it for a week now and still really tired, various nerve pain, joint pain, muscle fatigue...seems to cycle, weak and dizzy, some blurred vision but it's all better than it had been just seems it should be gone since the meds are out of my system.
Avatar f tn also been on the avelox a week now and still have a week to go, but infection is just getting worse. have been making sure not to take any dairy or other minerals with it, 8 hrs before or 4 hrs after taking it. doc told me to take my omeprazole every day for my acid reflux (which i haven't had any problems with in quite a while) because she thought my acid reflux might be causing all of this to be worse and making my asthma flare up.
Avatar n tn About a week ago I had alot of uncomfort and when going to the bathroom, had bright blood and later in the night it turned to dark blood throughout the next day. When cultured I was possitive for E.C. and my RBC and WBC were elevated.My doctor put me on Sulfa. About a year ago I also had very uncomfortable right lower right backsided pain in the approximate area of the kidney and was on vacation.
Avatar f tn Has anyone had UTI'S all throughout pregancy? Just finished antibiotics and found our that I still have one when I went to the ER last night! Hope the medicine they give me finally makes it go away.
Avatar f tn I am at the front of the line for this one. I was having chronic uti's and eventually I had one that went rogue and ascended into my kidneys, and I landed in the hospital with sepsis. My problems are most probably associated with doing intermittent catherization to keep my bladder empty, that procedure is not sterile and I am constantly introducing new germs..
Avatar f tn So about two weeks later it started to hurt when I would use the restroom and so I went back to the doctors and they said it was just a UTI and I'm about half way done with my antibiotics and I still feel weird! Is it possible that I still have gonorrhea? Or could it be something else? And why is it still hurting when I pee?
Avatar f tn I keep getting UTI's but i wipe front to back and pee after sex. What may cause me to keep getting them...
874521 tn?1424116797 I have a question about the PREVENTION of UTI's in male cats, what is the best diet...I know it has to be low in one ingredient but I can't remember which? Neither of my cats will eat the Vet formulas of Science Diet or Medical what are other suggestion for a good diet to prevent crystals forming.
623156 tn?1322865851 I had 2 uti's and miscarried at 11 weeks in my last pregnancy. I am now 7 weeks pregnant again and going through another miscarriage. I have just finished a course of antibiotics for another uti. This seems very coincidental that I have now had 2 miscarriages with and had UTI's at the time. I have 2 other children already and the pregnancy was fine.
Avatar f tn yes I have been to the doctor and told that they are UTI's...and my husband has good hygiene so I don't think that's the problem...perhaps I am just more prone to getting them! And I'm not familiar with a macrobid...what is that?
Avatar f tn I was recently diagnosed with arthritis, along with other health conditions, in the back and sacral joints. The symptoms of arthritis have been going on for quite some time along with frequent UTI's - both seemed to start around the same time. What I'm wondering, does the arthritis in the sacral area play a role in the frequent UTI's and symptoms? Is there a correlation between the two?
1628550 tn?1299682560 Hey thanks for your help. But it ain't that easy to just get up n get a blood test where i live. I will try to get a probiotic. UTI's are really annoying and I've been going to the doctor for antibiotics for a good while and nobody told me that it also kills your good bacteria. They only told me when they checked in the computer and saw that i always came back to fill the same prescription over and over.
Avatar n tn Make sure to take the whole course of antibiotics. If you still have any urination abnormalities, I'd go back to your doctor to test your urine again to make sure all the bacteria is gone. UTI's stink. How many days are you to take the medicine? If masturbating causes an issue, maybe just wait until you are all done with the meds and uti? It can't be that long. Masturbating actually can lead to UTI's if your hands accidentally get e coli on them. Keep that in mind.
Avatar f tn There are so many medications that mention "tachy" as a possible side effect. I'm not sure if the arrhythmia becomes permanent however. Often it clears up once the medication is discontinued/ended. I've taken Cipro a couple of times now and I'm prone to arrhythmias LOL and never noticed any difference while on the med. My albuterol for asthma cranks up my heart rate but only for 10 minutes or so.
