Avatar n tn Does anyone know if clindamycin HONESLTY affects birth control? I am on Yasmin. And if it does, would taking it for 1 day make me ovulate although I never missed any pills? We always use condoms, not just because of the antibiotics, and I am always afraid of pregnancy anyway. I have OCD so that's part of why, but I am so scared that I possible ovulated. I have checked my cervix everyday and it is in the same place and closed, but I'm still afraid that an egg slipped out or something.
Avatar n tn My 13 year old son had found ASO TITER 830 and doctors have done ECHO and said that he must have go thru Pensiline enjection once in a three weeks first then once in a month for five year, so pls suggest me what should i do.....
Avatar f tn I must say my doctor and I discuss and then change protocols fairly often. I had a bad herx from rifampin at first and that is why I go up so slowly on the doses. I am also on a 2 week rotation of flagyl for cyst busting and even though I have done this for several months, I didn't herx from it until this recent rotation. If anyone has any othet med suggestions for barts, I would love to hear.
Avatar f tn So I've been on depo for 9.months now and got my renewal shot and antibiotics for 10 days on the same day, how long should I wait before having unprotected sex? How will they effect eachother????
798555 tn?1292787551 I started with Azithromycin, and then a week later on Rifampin for Bartonella. At six weeks, I stopped the azithromycin and started Bicillin shots. I needed either Bicilin shots or Rocephin thanks to my late stage neuro symptoms. I was usually also on an oral antibiotic for Lyme along with the shots. The oral med was switched out often. I have taken Biaxin+Plaquenil, Clindamycin, Doxycycline, and now Augmentin XR since I'm off the shots.
Avatar f tn t seem to have problems with doxycycline, amoxicillin or clindamycin. Clindamycin destroys my stomach though. I avoid cipro and zithromax.
Avatar f tn Swollen glands was a huge problem for me with Bartonella. For Barts I used Rifampin. I did ABX for two years and I am now on an herbal protocol. A common rash with Barts is when it looks like stretch marks.
Avatar n tn I got my culture back last Thursday afternoon of last week and it came back that MRSA was resistant to Clindamycin. Doxycycline was not so she put me back on Doxycycline and also Rifampin. I developed a rash all around my neck with small pimples that same Thursday. She took a biopsy Monday and I should have the results today. She gave me some creams and prescribed a soap to bathe in that would kill the staph on my skin. I have also been having night sweats for the last two months.
Avatar m tn However, towards the end of the week I started having some urethral irritation again and fairly bad joint pain. I was having some stomach irritation and loose stool, and after consuming some lactose and fructose heavy food at a conference, my bloating returned and my IBS was worse than it was prior to the antibiotics. I then took a course of Cipro, 100 mg twice daily for a week. I also took Xifaxan simultaneously for the IBS 500 mg 3 times daily for 10 days.
Avatar m tn I have spoken to my family in the UK and searched the internet and can nothing about taking milk based products and antibiotics together. Is this a German idea? Please can you offer some information.
Avatar f tn i recently found out that im 2 weeks pregnant and iwas on antibiotics(doxyclyn and metrronidazole) for bacterial infection before i took the test ,i want to know if this has affected the baby or me.
Avatar f tn Yes, they have me on Rifampin along with my Lyme meds now for awhile, and I have been told to stay on it, yet I am still afraid for when the next one will hit, its like having babies all over again! And with this herxing from the Lyme meds to top it all off, I just cant seem to get ahead here....I have cut down my protein consumption, I've read that it helps keep the cysts from growing too fast.
Avatar f tn Alternatively, you can take clindamycin for the bv and drink a boat load of cranberry juice for the UTI and water of course. It will take longer to clear up the UTI but it should work. It did for me in a pinch. It just took a couple of extra days. Of course if you are diabetic you can't.
Avatar f tn I see one of the side effects are lowed white blood cells and right now mine are 2.9. Idk why theyre so low. Prob the lyme..? I am not used to have a LOW white count..
Avatar m tn I am supposed to start taking rifampin once a day and bacterium 2x a day. I'm just wondering how to space it out. The bactrim I will take every 12 hours but wanted to know if I can take the rifampin at any time? Together with bacterium?
Avatar n tn has given me 10 days of clindamycin to be taken 3 times a day at a dose of 450 mgs. this is fine, i can take clindamycin with no ill effects. HOWEVER, i have read that this drug is not commonly used to treat std's as there are so many better options. Is clindamycin going to work??? Thanks.
Avatar m tn He was on hydroxyzine and prednisone. Now the doctor has put him on rifampin, USO and ambition.
Avatar f tn Hi I Was Recently Sick and Had To Begin taking an antibiotic called Clindamycin. Will I Be Okay To Drink Alcohol While On This Medication. I Have Read That This Antibiotic Doesn't Have Any Negative Affects While Drinking Alcohol. But Just Wanted To Double Check.
Avatar n tn heat bag extraorally, and warm salt water intraorally) may help reducing the severity and duration of the condition and i recommend that u stop the clindamycin as the course is usually only one week also,long duration of clindamycin usually causes git problems
6402846 tn?1391063748 Hey everyone. I've been posting on here for a couple months, got a positive Igenex lab last November. Been on doxy 100mg BD. I just saw a new LLMD yesterday who has a ton of experience, and wanted to get his take since I'm less than convinced that the doxy is doing it for me. This guy was amazing, really knew his stuff and a firm believer in antibiotics (not a quack!). Anyways, he diagnosed me with bartonella based on my symptoms since lab testing is unreliable.
1846163 tn?1331048748 I am cures Ty on Vytorin and will be starting therapy soon, I have read that someone on a cholesterol lowering drug should not be on this drug. Can you tell me why?
Avatar n tn It is now 5 days taking benadryl and the hives and itching have not stopped. What is in the clindamycin that I may be allergic to?
4939681 tn?1361299299 Rifampin can be loved or hated. I can't take it and a friend was put on it a few weeks ago and stopped sleeping! (He went off Rifampin!) Other treatments for Bart are Cipro or Levaquin. Please read all the warnings about both of them before starting them.
