Reviews
| Add Ceftin review I was put of Ceftin due to an "upper respiratory infection." (Strep culture was negative.) I stopped medication after seven days because I was constantly nauseous despite taking it with food, and sore throat, coughing and headaches did not subside after being on meds for a week. (I figured why continue to suffers on Ceftin? My ailment must be viral...) I lost my voice four days later.... so I resumed use of Ceftin and developed hives within 24 hours. I dont really mind the taste so much, of course I can barely taste anything considering I can't breath very well. I was prescribed this drug for Scarlet fever. I am afraid I am having early symptoms of dystonic reaction. I feel ready to crawl out of my skin and very panicky. My syptoms have started to clear up after 48 hrs of taking this drug, but now I am on my way to the ER for a benadryl shot. I wouldnt reccomend this drug. I had a very bad cough and my doctor prescribed me Ceftin. This drug is amazing and i felt better within a day. I neve felt nauseous and i never got sick once or had a bad reaction. Unfortunately i did hate the taste and had problems taking it with water, but taking it with milk is my reccomendation as it makes you feel better fter you take it. | Add Cefzil review After taking this a few days, I get extremely weak, tired and mentally confused; literally have trouble functioning. Plus my sickness I was taking it for is no better. I feel drunk. The whole time I felt mildly dizzy, had very sharp pains in the stomach and severe vaginal itching, discharge and swelling. I will never take this again if I can help it. one week after starting have pain in pelvic and higher. Sharp pain. Discontinued medication at this time. | |||
