 4  Upper Respiratory Infection Loose stools on days 2 and 3. Stomach cramps (similar to menstrual cramps) on day 4. Feeling of weakness, confusion, lightheadnessness, and a general "out of it" feeling. During the time I have been on this medicine, I wake myself up several times throughout the night due to fear that I won't be able to wake up again. I dont feel like myself right now and feel like I will never get out of my sickness. After reading all the posts, I think I am going to discontinue this medicine today. Cured upper respiratory infection. Still working on outer ear infection, but I have ear drops for that. F 23 4 days

 5  diverticulitus I eat yogurt with the medicine to avoid a yeast infection after 3 weeks so far so good. I am experiencing some brain shocks. I'm not sure if it is the phenylalanine or the potassium that is causing them but its kind of scarry. Also occasional nausea. Other than that no stomach cramps or diarrhea. F 42 19 days

 1  Cysts Nausea, exhaustion, weakness, light headedness, depression, inability to concentrate Well if you want sleeping tablets try a few of these. Only taken 4 so far and felt so rough at work had to come home early and go to bed. Rang nurse and asked to change to a different drug and she said it was more likely to be a stomach bug and to keep trying! Stomach bugs being renowned for causing all those symptoms :-) It may be effective if I keep going but frankly I would rather live with the first problem than put up with these side effects, especially after reading the rest of the comments. F 30 2 days

 3  infected cat bite vomitting, nausea, nervousness, insomnia this was all from my 1st dose of the drug, which I took while eating a cup of yogurt. The need to vomit woke me up from sleep 4 hours after I took it...then the anxiety and insomnia kicked in. I have called my doctor to see if another med will work...this was crazy. I'm already on effexor for depression and have way too much work to do to have something else messing with my nuerotransmitter levels. I'll post again if my doc has me continue to take it..

 1  suspected infection of incision Lethargy within a day. Stomach discomfort within 3 days. Built up to fatigue, heartburn and nausea and loss of appetite within 5 days. By the 6th day, I had diarrhea and then the vomiting started. I couldn't believe the extent to which I was retching to eventually toss up a little thin, greenish/grey fluid every hour or so. Had lost 10 lbs. and couldn't keep water down; doctor almost gave IV fluids. After about 30 hrs. off the meds, I could keep down a little gatoraid and saltines and quickly advanced to more substantial food and within another day, I was ravenous. It may help others to eat a good meal with each tab and take bacteria. M 50 6 days

 3  Sinus Infection/Bronchitis Loss of appetite, stomach pain, muscle pain, bloating, swelling This medicine took care of the sinus infection, but it came with too many side effects. I did not feel like myself on this medication; I felt lethargic, lazy, and unmotivated while taking this (not normal for me). It was so weird. I felt like I had another medical problem in place of the sinus infection. I would not take this medication again unless it was my only option. It is difficult to finish the medication because the side effects are so aggravating. F 27 10 days

Joint pain and to top it all off a yeast infection. The sinus infection did clear up. I don't think that I would take this again unless there was no other alternative. F 30 10 days

 3  Chronic Sinusitis Extreme Stomach BLOATING starting after about 10 days, I am now on day 15 - my waist expanded 4 inches in a few days, but I only put on 5 pounds, moderate stomach cramps. Also taking prednisone so don't know if some effects come from that - cannot have a normal meal or my stomach feels like it is going to POP. I am moderate to severe miserable, but I am going to try to stick with it. No diarea, no constipation, very mild nausea, just this incredible abdominal distress, and lots of gas. I think the med kills the flora in your upper intestine, so more food must be processed in lower intestine, leading to inflamation of lower intestine. Was scared enough by the bloating I called my doctor. I want rid of the sinusitis so badly that I am going to torture myself on this med for another 10 days, wish me luck. It seems to be working for that - I realized I had lost about half my sense of smell - did not know until just now the world actually STINKS sometimes! :D M 40 14 days

 3  sinus infection with facial pain I have felt very depressed! Kind of like an out of body experience. I feel shaky and almost like I am having some sort of panic attack. NO APPETITE...however, it hasn't hurt me one bit to lose some weight. I feel fatigued also. HOWEVER, I had just started taking Prozac for depression about a week before, so I don't know if the way I'm feeling is b/c of Augmentin or Prozac? Anyone have any advice or ideas? F 37 6 days

 5  Sinus Infection STOMACH CRAMPS!!!-- seem to be dairy related. I just wanted to throw this out there for anyone else to consider. The first time I was prescribed Augmentin I got these horrible stomach cramps. Since I was feeling so bad when I took it again later that night I took it with a bowl of cereal and had even more stomach cramps. I suspected it was related to dairy and then confirmed it when I had been on Augmentin for a few days with no cramping by avoiding dairy. Then without thinking I had a blizzard type shake and within 10 minutes I was cramping horribly. I went back to avoiding the dairy and I've been fine since. M 31 10 days

 1  bronchitis Fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, montezuma like stomach cramps, dizziness, excruciating muscle pains in neck, lower back and legs. 8:30 pm took 1st and only pill. By 10:00 pm I was experiencing severe stomach cramps, watery diarrhea. After spending most of the night on the toilet I awoke to a stabbing pain in my neck and back. I could barely walk and went to the ER. I was given fluids (I was extremely dehydrated from the diarrhea) benadryl and vicodin. The pain was so excruciating, the vicodin could only take the edge off. I slept the first day and a half, waking (screaming in pain) only to take vicodin. My poor children were terrified, I felt like I was dying and I must have looked like it too. It is now day 3 and I am better, although I am still experiencing pain (5 on the pain scale) in one buttock. I am stiff and because of the pain I cannot walk properly but thankfully the worst is over. F 32 1 times
