of been nice to have heads up from my doc.

Am not overly proud as am guna have to go and see my doc LIKE REALLY but as needs must and he never told me ... i must

Am sure its just over use or its medical term .. antibiotic diarhea

Now am guna have to get some antibiotic cream and some wet wipes ... Tried all usual trickes soaking it in warm salt bath .

And it dont work .. So yet again am going to have to grit my teeth and go docs .. I was only there yesterday over bad reaction to nebuliser fluid over the weekend . nearly hospitalised me.

But really you could not make it up even if you tried .. so my advice is if ya going on regular antibiotics make sure you use wet wipes

That's helpful advice Daz, not everyone is affected like that but it is a know side effect of antibiotics. So wet wipes at the ready just in case.Hope your improving, some antibiotics are worse than others by the way, best to let your doctor know so he can try a different one that might be better for you. Less running, which is not good for the chest either.

Yes and probiotics - yoghurts, tablets whatever. Sometimes it helps to make sure you eat when you take them, not always! Good luck. TAD xx

It is well known that diarrhoea is a common side effect of many antibiotics, and other medications. Certainly it has been the case for me. When Dazisnotsogood got his medication there would almost certainly have been a Patient Information Leaflet included with it and a section of that leaflet would have identified possible side effects. Perhaps he is just someone who is more content at looking at a glass which is half empty rather than one which is half full.

You said originally that you were not given any information. Now you say that you were given too much information.

Pete always uses wet wipes and has had piles too every so often. He takes Doxy on a daily basis and Cipro when he has a chest infection. They do tend to cause upset stomachs and probiotics can help balance out that effect if you take ab's long term. Good luck to you Daz and hope the doc can be of some help for a change. Let us know how things go. Thinking of you. Take care. xxxxxx
