Reviews
| Add Cefotaxime review I have Lyme Disease - neurologic symptoms mostly. Symptoms for 7 months before starting oral antibiotics. Was on oral antibiotics for 6 months and then this drug through IV for 4 weeks. Within 10 minutes of each treatment, the brain fog and headache would start instantly. That lessened after the first few weeks and I feel loads better. On to the next abx through IV - hopefully it'll be the last! | Add Ceftriaxone review 14 days after I had been on this medicine, I got the worst allergic reaction of my life. My entire bod has broken out in a bright red rash, and after 3 days it is still spreading after I have discontinued the drug. | |||
