 1  Sinus infection Horrific gout like symptoms in both feet and legs. I could not stand or walk plus exreme sleep disruption. Felt like I was loosing my mental balance. I rarely take antibiotics and trust generally my bodies own internal processes. Consequently when I had this horrific reaction I stopped taking the medicine. After approximately 6 weeks my poor feet are not back to normal but are slowly getting better. Stay away from leviquin, another bad one. M 71 4 days

 1  Bronchitis Severe bilateral foot, ankle and calf aching/burning/pain. Mild for the first couple of days, increased in intensity quickly over the 6 days until unbearable. Brain fogginess. Stomach upset, gas, loose stools and constipation. I have not taken the augmentin in over 48 hours and although my leg pain has alleviated to some degree within the first day, it is still very much present and not diominishing further. I'm concerned that it may be permanent nerve damage of some sort. Burning, aching and shooting pains continue. F 41 6 days

 1  ear infection I quit taking xanax for anxiety 2 yrs ago. That being said I haven't had any issues with anxiety ever since. Started taking augmentin and within days I started experiencing anxiety to the point that I could barely keep myself together. Mind racing, complete loss of control of thoughts as well as strange thoughts. Very scary and I would not recommend this drug to anyone w/anxiety issues. Thankfully I decided to look it up and found this is one of the most severe. BEWARE OF THIS DRUG M 37 10 days

 1  Possible bacterial pneumonia Severe upper leg pain (both thighs). Wrist and hand pain (both hands). Constipation. Insomnia. Within the first two or three days, the muscles in the top part of both of my thighs started hurting continuously. From the knee to the groin. Very bad pain. Then both of my hands started tingling and hurting with a stinging pain (like having them thrust into a bucket of freezing water). If not for Ibuprofen, I don't know what would have become of me, it hurt that bad. And it was continuous. I also experienced severe constipation (which is totally unheard of for me). Plus my sleep cycle suddenly changed. I though that might be because of the unrelenting pain, but now I'm not so sure. I stopped taking it one day shy of the two week mark my Doctor prescribed. That was two days ago. Now my leg pain is relenting somewhat. I hope it stops soon. M 57 13 days

 3  Strep No side effects at all until about day 7 and I began to have a bump here and there on my waist line that would itch. After I finished the meds, the rash worsened. It was mainly a flat rash with a raised bump here and there that would itch. The rash spread up my sides, to my mid and low back then my thighs. It was all gone within 10-14 days after finishing the antibiotic. I've taken Augmentin before with zero issues but this is the first XR I've taken. M 41 10 days

Anxiety, depression, heart palpitations, vomiting, severe joint pain.. (unusable left arm with intense pain stil exist after two months).

 1  Strep throat Bloating, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, skin itching, vaginal pains, upset stomach, no appetite, numbness and tingling in limbs, joint pain, abdominal pain, vomiting and chest pains. This is the worst medicine I've ever taken, by day one I was vomiting then followed by severe diarrhea that lasted almost a week which now I have hemorrhoids from, chest pain that felt like I was about to have a heart attack, anxiety, nervousness, could barely eat food without feeling sick, loss in appetite, I feel like this had definitely cause me some GI issues. I called my doctor and she said to just finish out the Meds I have a day and a half left. I will never take this again, I hope that I don't not suffer long term from this medication! I am not too keen of taking medication unless absolutely necessary, it did clear my strep throat but I feel horrible I feel like I'm 62 rather than 26. F 26 8 days
