"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. Please be careful when taking these. I was on my fourth day with it."

"I have been on cefpodoxime for 3 days, and my urine output is still very minimal, not normal. I have been drinking water, and I am constipated as well. This medication works slow, I will wait another day before going to the doctor again."

"I have used cefpodoxime twice, but it takes more than 3 days to get symptomatic relief. I was taking 200 mg every 12 hours. It generally does not have any side effects on me."

"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!"
