| 1 | Acne | Extremely painful stomach cramps, nausea, fatigue, lack of appetite | I've only been taking it for over a week but it is ruining my life | F | 18 | 10 days 4 a day | 5/13/2015 | 1 | Laryngitis & abscess | The most horrific stomach cramps! Almost called an ambulance as I thought I had something seriously wrong... Pains in my back, overwhelming nauseous feeling, eventually after 2 days of dry heaving I began vomiting which was no relief.... As a single mother, alone at home with my small children it was utterly terrifying! I have never felt such stomach pain! | The single worst side effects I have ever had!!! Far far worse then the original problem!!! Stopped taking before course ended and will NEVER take again!!! | F | 32 | 1 days 250mg | 5/10/2015 | 1 | Acne | Awful anxiety, racing irrational thoughts, constant nausea, racing heart, feeling tired all the time, lack of concentration, very emotional, crying, bad stomach pain | No information about side effects such as anxiety on in the information. Saw two doctors and spoke about what I was experiencing and neither made the connection and proceeded to proscribe more whilst giving me the information for the local CBT clinic. I was sure it was my contraceptive pill which I have to take to stop symptoms of endometriosis. Such a horrible few months wish I'd seen this sooner. | F | 23 | 2 months 250 4X day | 4/26/2015 | 2 | ear infection | Im on 2000mg a day got agressive ear infection hospital put me on theses, constant hunger pangs weird feeling in my stomach really tired can sleep all night day on these then out blue most cripplin stomach pains , the ear infection was agony and this now will not use these agsin | F | 39 | 6 days 250mg | 4/25/2015 | 1 | Tonsillitis | In bed in agony waiting to go see emergency Dr. Have never had pain like this before. My whole upper abdomen into my back is killing me!!!!! Having to breath through each pain and try to keep still. It's been 9 hours since he last does and the pain hasn't eased at all. | F | 29 | 2 days 500mg | 4/20/2015 | 1 | Dog bite: preventing infection | Day 1 was okay. The first night however, I became very bloated, nauseous and anxious. Day 2 was a nightmare at work, being completely lethargic and anxious at the same time. I've suffered from a depression 5 years ago and that exact feeling I was hoping never to experience again struck me after only 24 hours of taking these pills. Day 3: zombie state, very depressed, nauseous, dizzy, bloated looking like I'm 5 months pregnant, stool looks like cat barf. Insomnia, heart 'flutterings' combined with severe nausea, the feeling electric sparks are shooting through my body. Slightly deaf on one side, wheezing sound in the other ear. Day 4: still very anxious and depressed, the thought of food alone makes me gag. I'm going to contact my doctor tomorrow and ask him if I can be freed from this nightmare after taking 16 out of 24 tablets... my wound just looks like a regular scratch (about 4x1mm on my finger) and is almost healed already. Feels like I'm torturing myself for nothing. | This was prescribed to me after I mentioned amoxicillin gives me bad diarrhea and I'm trying to get pregnant. A. I take the diarrhea over this nightmare any day and B. We will probably end up skipping this month when it comes to trying to get pregnant now anyways, because of how I'm feeling. | F | 33 | 6 days 500MG 4X day | 4/12/2015 | 4 | Eye infection | Very hungry, bloating, vomiting, excessively tired, nausea, gurgling stomach, gas, weight gain | Ive been on four different kind of medicines for my eye and this is the only one that helped. That's being said , I've never had a medicine that's made me feel so terrible either. | F | 18 | 10 days | 4/1/2015 | 4 | Oral abscess | Second time taking this antibiotic with same side effect of huge increase in appetite which won't go away constant hunger pangs | F | 31 | 7 days 500mg | 3/29/2015 | 1 | Ear Infection | Severe debilitating upper abdomen pain through back. Pulsating stomach muscles. Feelings of nausea but no actual vomit. Excessive burping. | After taking only 1 pill approximately a half an hour later I started experiencing SEVERE abdominal pains that brought me to tears and left me doubling over. I've never felt this way before from taking any antibiotic. It was unreal. I was in a fetal position for at least two hours. It has now been over 8 hours since I've only taken one pill and I am still experiencing stomach pains, though not as severe as previously. I took with food and that did not help. I WILL NEVER TAKE THIS MEDICATION AGAIN. It should be recalled. I'd rather deal with the infection than experience that type of pain ever again. I called my doctor and let her know I will absolutely not continue with this treatment. She switched me to Amoxicillin. I hope it helps. | F | 31 | 14 days 500MG 4X day | 3/23/2015 | 1 | Acne | Hunger pains | I've tried many antibiotics for my acne, so far nothing has worked. Usually antibiotics don't give me any bad side effects, however with this one i found myself experiencing severe constant hunger pains after the first day of taking them. I thought it was just a coincidence but after 3 days it has continued so I have stopped taking the medication. Guess I'll have to find something new... | F | 17 | 3 days 250mg 4X day | 3/22/2015 | 1 | eczema and an infection | Feeling like I was going to throw up, stomach pain , headaches | They make you feel very sick and they are rubbish antibiotic never taking them again | F | 13 | 7 days 250mg | 3/8/2015 | 1 | Glandular Fever | Excruciating stomach pain, the need to be sick but then can't | Was prescribed these because I was being sick on penicillin so they thought I was allergic to it; been on these only 3 days with hope they'll make me feel better as I'm in agony with glandular fever and I have been woken up 4:30am with excrutiating stomach pain, I went to the bathroom with the urge to be sick but could not. The most painful thing I have experienced, please if you read this before being prescribed these tablets DO NOT TAKE. they are not pleasant and DO NOT take the pain away.
