I had a really bad upper respirator infection, for which my doctor prescribed Azithromycin (3 day dosage) didn't work, so he prescribed Avelox (7 day dosage) I have taken 3 of the 7 pills, the only side effect I have noticed, is really bad heartburn, which leeds to nausea. Not sure if I should take the last four pills. It has quelled the coughing and the congestion, but if I do not finish the prescribed dosage, will the infection return. I could cease the Avelox and continue taking the Hydrocode cough syrup he also prescribed, as it is the only linguring symptom of the infection. No other side effects noticed.
I WOULD NOT TAKE ANY MORE AVELOX. FIRST OF ALL, DOC DOESN,T KNOW IF INFECTION IS VIRAL OR BACTERIAL.
IF SYMPTOMS WORSEN,I,D ASK FOR ANOTHER 3 DAY COURSE OF ZITHROMAX. IF IMPROVING ,JUST DRINK PLENTY OF WATER AND USE COUGH RX IF NEEDED. THE COUGH SYRUP MAY BE CAUSING NAUSEA?? AVELOX INTERACTS WITH SO MANY OTHER MEDS. IT IS TOXIC BY ITSELF! YOU HAVE TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION. TAKE YOUR TEMP,DRINK THIN LIQUIDS,CHEST CLAPPING TO EXPECTORATE SECRETIONS. OTHER QUINOLONES INCLUDE AVELOX,LEVAQUIN,CIPRO--TRY TO AVOID ALL OF THEM. THERE ARE MUCH SAFER ANTIBIOTICS TO CHOOSE FROM.
