For Tonsillitis/Pharyngitis "I have infections in the sinus, throat, and upper chest. My doctor first put me on Augmentin, which caused me to throw up. She changed it to Ceftin, and it is giving me no trouble at all. Also, I am already feeling better in the sinus. I have a horrible cough, but I imagine that's from the bronchitis breaking up. I'm very pleased with how this is working so far."

For Sinusitis "I have been prescribed Ceftin multiple times over the course of 6 years to treat my sinusitis. Every time I have taken it, I have only been able to endure a few days before the incredibly harsh nature of this medicine on my stomach forces a doctor to stop the use. This week I was prescribed it again, and 4 hours into the VERY FIRST PILL of my VERY FIRST DOSE, I began to feel terrible stabbing abdominal pain and then began over 24 hours of awful diarrhea and vomiting. My body felt like it was going through a war. Now, not only was I still battling through sinusitis, but due to taking this Ceftin, I added symptoms of being in the throes of a stomach virus. I went to the doctor 12 hours into this episode, whereby he told me NEVER TAKE THIS MEDICINE AGAIN... it clearly is having awful reactions with your body. This has really set me back now, and thanks to the havoc it wrecked on my insides, now I can’t take any meds orally for a bit until we can stabilize my stomach."

For Bacterial Infection "Daughter is 16 months old and was prescribed this garbage from the ER doc for an ear and chest infection. She was on this for 3 days and had the worst experience ever with stomach pain, vomit, diarrhea galore, and would not move from wife's lap, crying. We stopped this med and saw a night and day difference within 16 hours. Unbelievable."

For Sinusitis "The medicine clears the infection, but extremely harsh on the stomach. I am on day 4 and had to stop taking it because I threw up all over the driveway. It repeats on you all day and leaves a horrible taste. Very strong."
