| 3 | Chest infection | The drug is clearing up my chest infection but at the cost of seriously bad wind and upset stomach. I am considering stopping the course. | M | 38 | 5 days 500mg | 6/23/2017 | 1 | sinusitis | Severe wind,dizzy bad tempered its truly awful never again I'm stopping it from now I prefer the sinus pain!! | F | 49 | 3 days 500mg | 7/12/2015 | 1 | Stomach Ulcers (H. pylori) | Extreme nausea, dizziness, light-headedness, fatigue, abdominal cramping. | I took half a dose of the drug with food and nearly immediately (within 20 minutes) felt extreme nausea. I had to take a maximum dose of nausea pills to sleep that night, and woke up feeling nearly as bad, with a headache and disorientation/dizziness. The nurse practitioner who prescribed it, and later my family doctor, both said that it is infamously hard to tolerate. My experience wasn't that uncommon. Ask for an alternative when at all possible. | F | 24 | 1 days 500 mg 2X D | 7/3/2015 | 1 | Bronchitis | Stomach pain and discomfort, excessive gas, strange heart beats, insomnia, overall feeling of being sick, anxiety, metallic taste, loss of appetite, some urinary incontinence. | F | 62 | 6 days 500 MG 2X D | 1/21/2015 | 1 | Chest infection | From the second day of taking Clarithromycin Ranbaxy 1 every 12hrs I started having nauseas, twitchy muscle, my skin very sensitive, extremely exhausted & tired, a ringing sound in my ears 24hrs. I told me doctor how I was feeling and he told me I may have post viral syndrome which can last one month or years & ruin ur life. I was worry and finally did some research myself abt taking this antibiotics. I wont recomend to any one to take it or go through hell as me for 6 long days. AVOID taking Rambaxy | M | 40 | 6 days 500mg | 11/24/2012 | 1 | sinus infection | insomnia, spaced out feeling, increased heart rate,tingling sensations in head | Absolutely awful! I was given Clarithromycin Ranbaxy for sinus and had to stop. It felt like I had gone on a complete bender on drugs, couldnt sleep, twitchy, practically out of it. Have taken Klacid in the past and never had any problem with it(klacid is also a clarithromyicin medication). Avoid Ranbaxy if possible | F | 34 | 5 days 500 2X D | 11/13/2010 |
