"Worst medication I’ve ever been prescribed. I had strep for the first time in my life over a year ago, and I was prescribed this. It interacted with my vitamins. I felt exhausted all the time. Plus, it didn’t even work. I had strep again days after finishing out my prescription. I was taking it at specific times each day and taking all the precautions while having strep. I was prescribed this once more, and it didn’t work. Finally, I was given another antibiotic, amoxicillin. Works way better. I’ve heard the same from many friends who also had bad experiences with penicillin."
