"So my 10-year-old daughter has tested positive for whooping cough, therefore, the whole family needs to be treated. I have 3 daughters, 10, 9, and 5. We are all taking the clarithromycin, this is the 2nd day, and we all feel very dizzy, nauseous, have a horrible taste in our mouths, and diarrhea. I feel like we are being poisoned, not treated. Is it worth all this pain and discomfort for 7 days? Our other option is not to take the antibiotics and stay isolated for 21 days. I don't know what to do."
