Omnicef has done a great job on a persistent throat and sinus infection. However, I have trouble sleeping due to the vivid nightmares it has given. I quit taking it for two days and the nightmares stopped. Back on it and they came back.

I started taking Omnicef for a small bacterial infection on my lip. After a few days I began to have diarreah, very frequently and without notice. Soon after i started to experience some very irritating and severe anal and vaganial itching and burning. I have also slept very poorly, and had very vivid bad dreams. My Rx was only for 7 days, and after 4, I had all of these side effects. Worst of it all, it has not seemed to have done its job! Im a 20 year old female who is in good health for the most part, and this med has ripped me apart. I'd suggest anything but Omnicef!

i'm a 19 year old college student, and i'm on my last 3 days of this medication, and while i had bad side effects at first, i waited them out, and now they're mostly gone. i had stomach cramps, that gassy feeling, i was dizzy and felt faint...i felt like i was in a cloud and couldn't function. however, it was better than the misery i was experiencing from the sinus infection, where i was only able to sleep. i can return to work, and some side effects still linger , but its def. done its job as an antibiotic. i did develop a yeast infection from the antibiotic i took before omnicef, which is why i didn't want to change medicines again. i was on another antibiotic, which made me deathly sick. omnicef is supposed to have less severe side effects than other bacterial infection antibiotics out there. i did take a probiotic with the omnicef, i recommend taking one with any antibiotic. it levels out your bacteria levels, which may stop stomach problems altogether.
