omnicef
Upon release from the hospital I was given a prescription for an anti-biotic, CEFDINIR generic for OMNICEF, 300MG. I came home from the hospital Thursday and the heart beating problem continued. On Saturday morning, I developed another problem. I shivered but was not cold. I stuttered really bad. I don't normally stutter. It really scared my husband.
The Home Health Nurse came out and could not explain it. I had not taken the anti-biotic Saturday morning.
Endodonist said there was pus -- infection. I have had allergic reaction to Levaquin and AzitheraI and have had side effects diarrhea and lightheaded from Cefdinir and Cephalexin so he prescribed Cipro 500mg. Said he doesn't usually prescribe but given that it have taken Cipro 250mg in the past (or urinary tract infection with no side effects. Is Cipro as effective as other antibiotics for dental infection?
clarithromycin) and Omnicef (gen: cefdinir), and then switched to Zithromax (gen: azithromycin) and Flagyl (gen: metronidazole). As I recall, the switch in meds was because I was having a bad reaction to treatment, but it may have been that the doc didn't realize my problem was the probiotic I was taking and not the antibiotics. I don't know.
So ..
We are trying to avoid any side effects here. The longer a drug is taken, the chance for its side effects to manifest may be higher. Ask your physician about this. Putting you off the medication to see how you may fare without it will be necessary.After all, being on medication for long periods may not be very cost effective and may also result to unwanted side effects.
Hello my 12 year old was taking omnicef for a ear infection and 10 days into it she got hives all over her body and they come and go and really ichy do you think it's from the Omnicef?
Your doctor may have an explanation to account for your symptoms but, if not he/she may have to empirically prescribe another drug, one not in the category of bactrim and Cefdinir. It would also be reasonable for you to ask your doctor to contact the pharmaceutical manufacturers of these drugs to find out if reactions such as yours have been reported.
I was really scared of the side effects of the meds, and I waited to start taking them simply out of fear. Partly that's because Lyme etc. causes anxiety, so on top of being sick, I was anxious also because of the sickness, and all of that makes thinking clearly really hard.
If that happens to you, know that you are not the only one who has been through it.
I work in the medical field, I have heard of the drug but I have not seen or heard of the side affects. I will check the nursing book info on it if I get time at work tomorrow for you. I was wondering what meds you have been on and for how long? Has your blood tests all been good? I am now on Ceftin 1000mg twice daily and doxy 400mg twice daily. I hope this works for the brain fog.
This does not seem to work as I still have foul smelling discharge from my nose and post nasal drip. My teeth on the left hand side of the mouth still hurt (but they do not seem to be the source of infection) and still have headaches.
I was wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation and if there are additional things I could be doing.
Orapred is a necessary evil. That is an oral steroid that causes lots of side effects with extended and frequent use. The goal of good asthma care is to keep the use of prednesone to a minimum. Talk to his doctor about signs and symptoms of a possible flare coming on that you could catch early and avoid a full flare. Some symptoms are coughing, runny nose, or stuffy nose. Also, if he gets less active than usual for an unknown reason.
I also finished my 2 week couse of Clarithomycin and took a test of cure by PCR for mycoplasma after a gap of 1 week after completing the antibiotics. Thankfully the results came back negative for both mycoplasma hominis and genitalium (separate tests were performed). Is there any chance that the infection was just supressed due to medication and I need to repeat a test of cure again later?
It wound up causing a massive infection, along with near constant fever and previously a very ill period of 4-6 weeks where I had the most horrible waves of debilitating flu-like illness.
At the onset of the infection, which turned into an abscess, my white blood cell count was slightly elevated. 4 months later, still fighting this awful infection (that spread into lymph passages, ear and eye on that side), my white blood cell count is normal.
The only symptom being sever diarrhea. A side from the dehydration which they gave me 2 bags of sodium chloride intravenously which completely rehydrate me.
When I say sever diarrhea, I mean sever! I'd say I am having about 20 episodes per day. I am literally running into the restroom ever 10 minutes with watery green diarrhea.
They prescribed cefdinir taken orally 2 times a day.
Is there anything else I should worry about.
