augmentin
All I can do is go by what the CDC recommends in the STD Treatment Guidelines.
Augmentin might cure it - that's fine. Its just not a chance I would want to take. You are entitled to take that chance if you want.
And I agree that a follow up test is never a bad idea.
If you want to argue some more - go for it. I'm done.

I have been fighting a bone infection in my jaw for 6 months - it wasn't identified until this past month but I'd been very sick this whole time. This past month I finally found a good oral surgeon who removed the 2 teeth causing the problem, and cleaned out the bone underneath.
i was prescribed it, but havent resorted to it yet and probably wont...but it is used for sleep and as a boost or addition to antidepressants for depression...for use at night only as it does induce sleep...(25mgs-100mgs) 600 mgs is what was prescribed when used for bipolar etc...doesnt work well for that, it now has other uses...
But 10-15% are resistant. Augmentin is active against even the resistant strains. Augmentin has not been studied for its effect against pharyngeal gonorrhea, but in the doses used for strep throat and respiratory infections, it probably would cure it.
Asymptomatic urethral gonorrhea is uncommon in men, and testing is reliable. The asymptomatic person can be sure he doesn't have it.
There is no point in you being tested while taking augmentin.
Furthermore would the antibiotic Augmentin XR 875mg work to cure NGU? I have read numerous posts and the general attitude is that there is very little to no risk of contracting anything.
But i wanted to ease my mind because shortly after (aprox. 5 days) I feel a tingling in the head of my penis when I urinate. There is no other pain or discharge. Best way to describe it is that I feel like i have to pee again shortly after i go.

I got really sick, and my doctor put me on the antiobiotic Augmentin XR(Amoxicillin clavulanic potassium). I am also taking some tylenol for fever. I was wondering if all these drugs are safe to take together. Specifically, will my potassium levels be altered to a dangerous point? I've heard ambiguities about birth control and antibiotics. I just want to make sure the mix of medication will not adversley affect anything.
And strep can be a little resistant. Augmentin does usually knock it out though. I took antibiotics for a full month around the clock for a tooth issue (yes, 4 times a day and got up at night or it). I was fine during. About two weeks after stopping, all heck broke loose in my GI track. I did get a yeast infection and treated that. BUT, I had a day in which I was horribly ill. I had stomach cramping, nausea and diarrhea. It was brutal.
Now 2 days in I have diarrhea. Should I discontinue the augmentin? If not, what is the best way to treatthe diarrhea?
Hi, antibiotics, such as amoxicillin for 2 weeks, have been the recommended first-line treatment of uncomplicated acute sinusitis. Amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin) is also an appropriate first-line treatment of uncomplicated acute sinusitis. Other options include cephalosporins such as cefpodoxime proxetil (Vantin) and cefuroxime (Ceftin). In patients allergic to beta-lactams, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim), clarithromycin (Biaxin), and azithromycin.

My Dr has treated me with Metronidazole- brand name used was flagyl Nylstatin for yeast, clamycin,spandnox (for yeast), and recently had some relief with Augmentin(which was prescribed for a chest infection). When i was on augmentin all the above symptoms went away however came back 1 or 2 days after i came off the anti biotic.
Although Augmentin kills certain types of bacteria and is used for lower respiratory, ear, urinary and sinus bacterial infections, does not necessarily mean it will get help a sore throat.
To find out what type of bacteria is causing the sore throat and which antibiotic will kill that bacteria is to get a swab taken of your throat to identify the bacteria and then the correct antibiotic will be prescribed.
It is unclear what your treatment for your hepatitis C was in 2011. The augmentin is an antibiotic and the livolin is typically used for asthma? Based on what you have reported, it would be difficult for anyone to provide advice. Do you know your genotype, viral load? Are you being seen by a gastroenterologist/hepatologist?
Are you sure you have hepatitis C? What makes you think so?
Be well.
I just started taking Effexor XR 3 wks ago and I was wondering if anyone has had a good experience with this med as a preventative? If so, what is the appropriate dosage for migraine prevention? I am on 75 mg once a day. Also, I started taking taking 500mg of GABA and 200mg of l-theanine before bed to help me sleep. I have been having trouble sleeping since December (break-up). That is why I am taking the effexor. The GABA/theanine combo has helped with the sleep greatly.
It is possible for your infection to be resistant to azithromycin, the typical treatment for NGU. The Augmentin will have no effect on chlamdia, which is what I think your doctor suspects you have. Go back into the doctor. He/she will most likely do a culture and sensitivity to identify the infectious organism as well as determine what antibiotic or combination of antibiotics will work best.
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!!
