Avatar f tn Hi everyone, My mom was recently diagnosed with Hep C associated cirrhosis. She has had some complications, including esophageal varices and ascites. She remains fairly well compensated and does not exhibit symptoms such as fatigue or confusion. During an endoscopy her doctor also noticed an ulcer and tested her for H pylori (which was positive). He's prescribed Prevpac to kill the bacteria and heal the ulcer.
Avatar m tn I took one dose of clarithromycin in a PrevPac yesterday (first day) and I started having chest pains last evening, anxiety (suicidal thoughts), weakness, couldn't think, etc..I'm stopping immediately. Just continuing with the Amoxicillin.
Avatar m tn Pylori is 1000mg (1g) of Amoxicillin combined with 500mg of clarithromycin and PPI in your case Lansoprazole 30 mg - 2 times a day. Are you allergic to any drugs? For examples penicillins? then maybe your doctor meant to write metronidazole 500mg as there is another type of treatment for penicillin allergic patients which includes metronidazole 500mg + clarithromycin 500mg + PPI.
Avatar m tn prescribed the triple therapy that consist of Lansoprazole, Clarithromycin, and Amoxicillin. The problem is that she told me to take only one pill of of Amoxicillin (500 mg) every 12 hours but its supposed to be two pills (1g) every 12 hours, and I already finished the cycle. Now I am very concerned because I know that this bacteria becomes resistant to antibiotics. What should I do?, how long should I wait before I take another H. Pylori test?
Avatar m tn I know of no reports that link the development of asthma with any of the drugs in the preparation, Prevpac. In fact Clarithromycin has proven to be beneficial in the treatment of certain types of asthma. My first thought is to question the diagnosis of asthma, with onset at age 62.
1747349 tn?1332683680 consisting of proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole, lansoprazole and the antibiotics clarithromycin and amoxicillin.[46] Variations of the triple therapy have been developed over the years, such as using a different proton pump inhibitor, as with pantoprazole or rabeprazole, or replacing amoxicillin with metronidazole for people who are allergic to penicillin.
Avatar f tn So, had brief encounter with sex worker. I am a male and she a female, just for clarity and accuracy of response though I'm confident that this is irrelevant. In any case, I received oral sex lasting only a couple minutes then shortly after completed with handjob. Anyway, that night I had extreme regrets as this not something I regularly do, only once before. So in my anxious state, I thought it best to be proactive and see if I could prevent any full infection from developing.
Avatar n tn ) H pylori is treated with a combination of two antibiotics, beside Prevpac, this is usually metronidazole or clarithromycin. After the treatment, another breath test is recommended to see, if infection is cured. Bright red blood in the stool is urgent situation. Do you think it may be from hemorrhoids? Red blood is definitively from the part of the gut under the stomach - from small or large intestine. You should visit a doctor. Strange taste may be from drugs, you've taken.
1763947 tn?1334055319 An ulcer? Yikes. Have you tried a Prevpac for that? I tested high in h.pylori early on, so they had me stop my abx to take the Prevpac (which includes Biaxin and Amoxicillin.) It definitely reduced my stomach pain.
1806721 tn?1554333407 Hi, my doc put me on 14d Prevpac treatment today. I've been taking Prilosec during the past month or so to get my symptoms under control. It works quite well for me. I have never taken Prevacid before. Are these two the same thing? Can I use Prilosec to substitute the Prevacid in the pack? I'm scared of stopping Prilosec as my symptoms always get worse when I tried to wean myself off the drug in the past.
Avatar f tn I took 1500mg of Clarithromycin ER, and 1875mg of Amoxicillin that night. The following morning took another 1gm of the Niacin ER & 1375mg of Amoxicillin.
Avatar f tn So this is day nine on the prilosec and day seven on the antibiotics (Ammoxicillin and clarithromycin)for the H pylori. My symptoms are still there SOMETIMES after eating. For the most part it has been a bland diet, except for the exception of a hamburger yesterday which caused extreme discomfort. Could this be a side effect of the medicine or my stomach trying to heal still? Please let me know if I should tough it out with the antibiotics or could this be something else?
Avatar n tn The next week I had a sore throat (unrelated) and went to my doctor and was given a prescription for amoxicillin. I began taking the amoxicillin 10 days after the encounter. 15 days after the encounter while still taking the amoxicillin, I had sex with my wife. We had sex twice that night, the only time since the encounter. The next week my doctor switched me to clarithromycin for my throat.
Avatar n tn I am still feeling the symptoms in my sinuses so I went to the Dr last week and was prescribed Amoxicillin. About 20 mins after taking it I had this strange sensation on my lip...like a tingling/itching feeling and became itchy all over. I called the Dr and she prescribed Clarithromycin. I didn't want to take it right away, just in case I had a similar reaction. A few days later I took one pill and noticed that I was itching again...so I stopped taking that as well.

Avatar f tn pylori I will have a 7 days triple antibiotic therapy (Omeprazole, Amoxicillin and Clarithromycin). In 8 weeks they want to make me a breath test to see if the bactery is gone. But in the last hours I have thought about many things and have some questions: 1. Is there any relation between the H. Pylori and the polyps found in my gallbladder? 2. Is there any relation between the H. Pylori and my skin problems? (My skin looks red in the cheeks and around the nose...
Avatar m tn coli or salmonella infection. Amoxicillin is also sometimes used together with another antibiotic called clarithromycin (Biaxin) to treat stomach ulcers caused by Helicobacter pylori infection. This combination is sometimes used with a stomach acid reducer called lansoprazole (Prevacid). Some women be having some dirty vagina. It's scary.
Avatar m tn ployri bacterial infection, so I was taking 2000mg of amoxicillin a day and 1500mg of clarithromycin (bactrim) for a course of 7 days. The girl I had sex with contacted me yesterday to tell me she has been diagnosed with chlamydia. If I did catch this first of all would this medication have cured me? Also, I had urinalysis dipsticks in the house and tested myself to see if I had UTI symptoms caused by possible chlamydia (white blood cells in urine, nitrates, etc) and it was all clear.

1138687 tn?1548643978 A different doctor changed my prescription from Doxy to Clarithromycin, as I work outside but told her I am managing the sun well as I cover up thoroughly. Well I am not even working that much during meds as they drag me down so i can certainly get away with Doxy.
Avatar f tn Husband had gastroscopy on 23/10/13. Biopsy taken but not got results yet. Gastroscopy showed h pylori gastritis and a presence of excess bile in the stomach. Triple therapy antibiotics prescribed (lansoprazole, amoxi and clarithromycin), he says he feels a lot better, but i'm worried sick.
Avatar m tn When the GI series results were back I was put on the triple therapy (Clarithromycin, Amoxicillan and 30mg Lansoprazole AKA Prevacid) twice a day for 14 days. After a few days into the triple therapy I wasn't feeling too bad anymore, just the hunger feeling after eating. When the triple therapy was over I went back to Ranitadine which led to burning again, so the doctor put me on 30mg of Lansoprazole since it worked in the triple therapy why not keep going.
1709162 tn?1314084832 Pyroli and have been given a weeks course of antibiotics Clarithromycin 500 mg twice a day and 1000mg of Amoxicillin twice a day together with 20mg of Omeprazole twice a day. I suffer from anxiety but I am taking no medication for this deciding I was better without it.
Avatar f tn I was disgnosed with h pylori after getting an endoscopy done. I’ve been taking meds for it’s. It’s a lot of medication. It’s clarithromycin 500, amoxicillin 500 mg, Lansaprozal 30 mg twice a day for about 10 days. I noticed a huge difference. People are not reacting to me as much. It hasn’t gone away completely but it’s been reduced to about 50% and I just started taking it 2 days ago.
Avatar n tn I have found that biaxin is chemically different than azithromycin but biologically same at killing bacteria as azithromycin. On some post you say that azithromycin or clarithromycin(biaxin) would cure all the bacterial stds then in others you state that there could be some problems. by H. Hunter Handsfield, M.D., Jun 11, 2007 12:00AM Directly to your questions: 1) Both azithromycin and penicillin are 100% effective in curing incubating syphilis.
