For Helicobacter Pylori Infection: So I started antibiotic h Pyrlori combo of amoxicillin, clarithromycin, lansoprazole meds on Monday and its a 14 day course. I had this medication prescribed in the past but I was feeling so sick I couldn't do more than 10 days, unfortunately the H pylori came back , thats why I'm taking it again. I feel horrible, headaches, nausea, no energy. I just hope I can finish the course, any tips on how to minimize the side effects? |

For Bacterial Vaginitis: I was diagnosed with BV and a yeast infection. I know what a yeast infection looks like and that’s not what I had.I initially went to the doctor for extreme burning sensation bloating and constipated. I do have sex with my bf but I couldn’t believe this was any reaction to sex. So they prescribed me one single dose for the yeast infection and 7 days for this metronidazole. I’ve been taking it and I did slip up and have sex with my bf in between taking it but I wasn’t getting any symptoms. Now today is the last day of my medication and this morning I woke up had to pee and it BURNED and the feeling doesn’t go away until hours later! I don’t understand why this is happening For Bacterial Vaginitis: I’m on day 7 of the 2x a day 500mg pill. Overall not a bad experience. The only side effects I can say I’ve definitely noticed is the metallic taste of the pill while swallowing, which I took after breakfast/dinner. I also had very soft stool throughout the entire week of the medication, and my urine was significantly darker than usual but other than that nothing major. My BV discharge and smell went away so I would say it did its job! |
