For Bladder Infection "That’s the third antibiotic I am taking for my bladder infection. My UTI symptoms reappeared on the third day with Cipro and 48 hours after taking a full course of Cefalexin. Urine culture came back negative after the first two antibiotics but UTI symptoms persisted. Nurse wrongly diagnosed me with Interstitial cystitis. Teledoctor fortunately prescribed me cefpodoxime. I am over the moon. No more symptoms and no side effects from cefpodoxime at all. I started to feel better after the first dose. Feeling great!"

Vantin (cefpodoxime) for Pneumonia "On my fourth pill of Vantin in a few more hours and I couldn't believe the rapidity of the healing! I am taking for Klebsiella Pneumoniae along with Macrobid for Enterro Bacteria! I have had dry mouth, dry throat, increased thirst.. slight ringing in ears that has passed.. headache ugh was the worst so far.. but not horrible. Heavier menstrual period a little dizziness and hey! I'm penicillin allergic. So I think I'm doing A-1."

For Bladder Infection "Just so no one goes through the same thing, affected my right side, maybe my liver. Caused headaches, stomach pain, etc. Was prescribed to take one in the morning and one in the afternoon and I can't even explain the pain and fear I'm going through. Plz be careful when taking these. I was on my fourth day with it."

For Kidney Infections "Ok this medicine cefpodoxime is no joke after about an hour of taking medication. My heart started beating fast. And I'm pregnant my belly started pounding. Ok so I decided to take half of pill and then I got really sick with side effects of nausea, sweating, chills, reflux and insomnia. Will not take again not to mention this is prescribed for animals in other countries. I think this works but the side effects are awful."
