For Middle Ear Infections "I had a swollen gland under my palate due to an ear infection and was given a 7-day prescription for this drug. I ended up stopping with 2 days to go. I have severe itching (feels like bugs crawling on me), yeast infections including in my mouth, severe diarrhea, nausea, heartburn, lethargy, and no appetite. It has been 3 full days since I took this vile drug, and I am still losing weight. I am now down 10 lbs, and it shows no signs of slowing down."
