Both times, she was prescribed antibiotics which cleared it right up. February 2011 - cough came back. Initially diagnosed as a viru

I went to the doctor last week to take care of a cough I've had (for four weeks NOW) he gave me Biaxin but never said what it was for, but he told me my lungs are making a lot of sound? Anyway, I've been on the pills twice a day for about 5 out of 7 days, and they don't seem to be working. If anything they seem to make everything worse. NOW, I've gotten a runny nose and I've been sneezing like mad and everytime I go to sneeze my chest makes this weird squeaky sound.

My 20 month old son was given Biaxin (Clarithromycin) to treat his ear infection and the beginning of a bronchopneumonia since Amoxil, and Cefzil didn't work. How long does it take for it to work?

I have had walking pneumonia since last friday, went to the doctors and got put on cefdinir and took that until wednesday night. Then on wednesday night, I got switched to biaxin. So, all together I have been taking these antibiotics for 5 1/2 days. Now, I have a loose cough, but no mucus really comes up. The cough germs are probably contagious. So, I just am curious, if i am still contagious while on antibiotics?

Then about 5-6 days ago I went to a doctor & he just listened to my breathing and said I needed a chest X-ray. He didn't check my throat or my ears & he seemed like ge was half asleep.. So I decided not to get the X-ray. But he gave me some biaxin & I think I started seeing results today, my snot is super yellow, I started with

Then just yesterday I was put on Clindamycin for a tooth infection - my dentist says it wasn't a bad infection by any means, just the root is dying/etc, and was going to take the med t

Hello, I am a 20 year old male living in Calgary Alberta. I have recently been feeling relatively unwell, it all started with a bullseyeish mark (relatively small...1.5 centimetres in diameter) that I payed no attention to for a while. Eventually I started getting heart palpitations which were diagnosed as PVCs by the emergency doctors ( got multiple ecgs done ..5 of them to be exact...a bunch of blood work...xrays..ct scan...24 hour holter monitor and a few more tests) everything was normal.

My husband and I have been having unprotected sex for 2 years now and have not conceived. I have been tracking my menstrual cycle more consistently since January of this year. My periods are typically 31 days apart and I am now on my 35th day this month. My last period was June 22nd. My estimated ovulation according to mymonthlycycles.com was around July 9th (I believe it was a couple days later). I started taking 2 500mg pills of Biaxin on July 8th. I have a clear and creamy vaginal discharge

I got Pneumonia in October of 2010 and was being treated with antibiotics for a long time. Around February of 2011 it seemed to move from my chest to my sinuses. My entire head became infected, including my sinuses, ears, and throat. Went to an ENT, he did a CT scan and found my sinuses were deformed. Has surgery on April 7th 2011, he said that "Almost all the cavities that were supposed to be open were sealed shut by bone. Had to drill almost 40 holes and every time, puss spewed out. Also, On

Last Tuesday I came down with a horrible sore throat. One of the worst I have ever had. It was very painful to swallow etc. Looking in my throat with a flashlight, my tonsils were red, very swollen, and had some pus on them. I assumed it was strep throat because I had NO other cold symptoms. Just a headache, and sick to my stomach. So I would have gone to the doctor but I don't have health insurance right now. What I did do was start taking an antibiotic that I had on hand. It is Clary

So after months of pain, I went to the ER to finally be diagnosed with an H pylori infection/ulcer. I was given amoxicillan and biaxin for 10 days. Went back a week later because the pain had not let up at all, and was told to stop taking the amoxicillan and to go 14days on the biaxin. Tomorrow is my 14th day and I still have no halt in pain. It hurts whenever I eat anything and is just as painful as the beginning before I got the meds. What can I do? Do I go back to the ER and see if theres

I am about 2 months post op surgery. My incision was about 6 inches, and when the stitches were removed, about 2.5 inches of it reopened. I then got cellulitis, and was on biaxin and when that didn't clear it up I was on cipro. Finished the cipro yesterday, and while there hasn't been redness and swelling (the infection looked like it was gone for about the past week and a half), the scar is still a little open in some places. The pressure of a wrap bandage I applied caused a little bit of pus

I've had a headache for the past 2 weeks abd ive een dizzy when i stand up so I went to the doctor and he said I have a sinus infection and prescribed biaxin. But my head mainly hurts in the back of my head though, a little in the front but primarily the back left. He pulled out an inch long piece of ear wax that was clogging my ear, but other than that I have had no sore throat, fever, drainage, or congestion at all. I am beginning to think I was misdiagnosed and I really don't want to take b

I'm 17 years old, almost 18, and am a senior in high school. At the beginning of this month, I got a UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) and was on antibiotics for that. Then a week or so later I woke up with a swollen face and went to the hospital, where they determined that it was facial cellulitis, so i was on an IV for 5 days, then oral antibiotics for another 7. Now, probably 5 days later, MAYBE a week after i finished those oral antibiotics, I am on Biaxin for strep throat. They are tablets th

Okay so I was diagnosed with 2 middle ear infections and after taking 2 pills every 12 hours of Biaxin 500Mg only one ear isnt infected. Now I seen a specialist and he put me on Cleocin 150mg 4 times a day. Is there different effects or is cleocin stronger?

Are there any remedies for temporarily getting rid of the taste in my mouth? Thanks for sharing!

So, I've looked it up a little but I'm not entirely sure. I have been taking it for four days, and I'm supposed to continue for four more. Now I normally wouldn't ask something like this, but it's my 18th birthday tonight, and the drinking age here is 18 so it's kind of a big deal to go out and such. If I were to have a drink or two what would happen? OR would it completely mess up my treatment to skip my evening pills and take them in the morning? So they don't react together? Thank you fo

Long story, but my 22 month old had bronchitis in February. A trip to the ER with terrible cough and fever of 105 ended in diagnosis of bronchitis and prescription for Cefzil (antibiotic). It got better, but didn't go away completely. At the end of march, she got really sick again with fever and terrible cough. We brought her to the doctor and after doing a chest x-ray to rule out pneumonia, she was diagnosed again with bronchitis. This time she was prescribed biaxin, which is a stronger

about 3 days ago I went to the doctors and got biaxin to treat tonsillitis. Now I am feeling worse then I did before. I now have slight trouble breathing and find it hard sleeping. There is an abscess on my uvula and on tissue right next to one of my tonsils. I find I am also having much pain when swallowing and there is more tonsil stones then when I first went to the doctors. oh and those abscesses weren't there when I went to the doctors 3 days ago. should I go back to the doctors now? Th

I'm going to see an ENT on Monday but was just curious what other people know about this and treating it. Since the beginning of March I've had a baaad sinus infection, never had one like this before. But I've had persistant drainage almost an entire year prior which I thought was due to allergies, come to find out I have NO ALLERGIES. The head pain was so severe it scared me so I had a CTscan done and the results were "mucosal thickening occludes the left-sided ostiomeatal unit. Mucosal thick

I need your help. February 13th was the last time I had my period. Shortly after that, I interviewed and began working at a preschool on the 21st. Since then I have been consistently sick. February 21 was the date I began my first prescription, which was called Biaxin. I was on that for 10 days, but I didn't seem to get any better. Then I was put on a drug called Levaquin for 10 days and steriod for 6 days (who's name I do not remember). I seemed to be okay for a little bit after that, but the

I've had a moderate dry cough and drainage for the past week. The doctor said it was viral...diagnosed me with a URI and prescribed me Biaxin (antibiotic) and a cough medicine. I took the first dose of the antibiotic yesterday, but feel MUCH better today. If it was a viral infection, the antibiotic is just an overkill and I have no use for it anyway. Should I take my second dose of the antibiotic or stop completely? I don't really want to take the antibiotic if I don't have to.
