 3  Acne So tired. THRUSH!!!! Arghh. Hungry and bloated. I'm hoping this works. I took lymecycline and it worked with no side effects for ages but suddenly stopped working after about nine months. I did forget to take on a few occasions. Don't think I can last on this as I'm just wanting to sleep all the time F 40 7 days

 1  tooth abscess Severe stomach cramps, feeling similiar of that of hunger, loss of appetite, mild dizziness, fatigue, mild upper back pain, nausea and vomiting, bloated feeling Have taken this before and remember only mild stomach cramps as being the side effects previously so thought Its not as bad as the abscess pain. I was wrong. Feel absolutely horrendous. The vomiting has aggravated the tooth and jaw pain and now I cant lay down for feeling sick. Dont know why I've reacted badly to them this time and am only on 2nd day into a weeks course. F 38 5 days

 1  Ear infection Colicky stomach cramps, bloating, abdominal pain, loose stools I have lbs anyway so didn't think much of the bloating initially only that it was worse than usual. But the stomach cramps were pretty bad all through the day and more noticeable in the night. On day 4 and resorted to googling symptoms as the stomach cramps and bloating was a lot worse plus loose stools. Would not recommend this drug ask for an alternative!! I got given them after a course of penicillin failed but I would rather take a higher dose of that, did not realise! F 26 10 days

UNDERSTAND THAT ALL ANTIBITOICS HAVE A LIST OF SIDE EFFECTS AS THEY ARE VERY POWERFUL AND NEED TO DO THEIR JOB. FIGHT TROUGH IT, IT'S NOT SO BAD. BESIDES, AFTER THE FIRST FEW DAYS THE SIDE EFFECTS DIE DOWN. KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT, ITS NORMAL. M 30 4 days

 1  Infection on face Cold . Dizzyness . Horrible stomach pains/cramps really weird feeling as if your hungry . Sickness . Runs I was given these antibiotics as I have a infection on my face and I'm allergic to penicillin . Have been told to take 2 tablets 4x a day 28 tablets in a box 2 sleeves of 14 . I have taken 12 tablets since I got them yesterday . The side effects started last night about half 5 after I ate my dinner . Instantly felt really sick couldn't lie down felt dizzy stomach was cramping like mad . Was eventually sick 5 times , now scared to eat . Have called the doctor back to see if I can be given something else as I still have a box left to take and one sleeve don't think I can handle this feeling for much longer . Terrible tablets refuse to take them . F 25 2 days
