I'm 27 years old and suffer from really acurring folliculitis on my bottom! (Of all places :/ ) my new doctors have prescribed me longterm flucloxacillin 500mg as had many short terms and keeps coming back .. docs have stated take one a day! Really? Would that even do anything? Unsure wether to take them?? Any health professionals that can help share advice would be greatly appreciated!!

I do hope you get a helpful response from a health professional on this forum soon. In the meantime try the one a day as it's better than not taking the antibiotic at all.
