I had pain in my calves and started becoming confused and in a drunk state of mind. Felt like when you first wake up after having been under anesthesia. My breathing was shallow and slow, and I felt like I was dying. I have taken augmentin before and this has never happened. I also take lexapro 20mg, but my doctor is aware of this and still put me on augmentin. I could not even function. stayed in my jammies for a whole week. My sinus infection is better, but not gone. | F | 39 | 20 days | 5/22/2005 | 1 | Sinus Infection | Severe stomach cramps, vomiting, loose stools, and overall stomach/inestinal uneasiness. | I will NEVER take this drug again.

Overall, I think it is a good drug except for the insomnia. I did not know it caused this until I checked this site on the internet. I thought it was being caused by other things. | F | 55 | 14 days | 5/10/2005 | 4 | Upper Resp.
