[Ly...] Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Today i found out i had a minor bacterial infection called Clostridium Dificle. causing me abdominal pain and i have to take some antibiotic called Flagyl to cure it. Im a bit worried that taking an antibiotic will cause my body to freak out since its so hyper sensitive to meds. hopefully not. I've been having halfway decent day. Anyone have any experience having to take other medications or antibiotics during withdrawal ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Mt...] Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Lynn, I hope you know to stay away from fluoroquinolone antibiotics. They are very toxic and dangerous especially to persons detoxing and recovering from benzodiazepine use. Here is a list: http://www.benzosupport.org/quinolene_antibiotics.htm Happy Healing to you!

[Ho...] Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Today i found out i had a minor bacterial infection that has been causing me abdominal pain and i have to take some antibiotic called Flagyl to cure it. Im a bit worried that taking an antibiotic will cause my body to freak out since its so hyper sensitive to meds. hopefully not. I've been having halfway decent day. Anyone have any experience having to take other medications or antibiotics during withdrawal ? I had two strong shots of clindamycin about a year ago and didnt have bad effects. I also had to take bactrim, which made me feel depressed after about 5 days of taking it. Amoxicillin didnt seem to bother me. I had to take Cephalexin for about 6 days and I think the cephalexin made me VERY depressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ge...] Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Lynn, I also had this and had to take flagyl. I did have a bad reaction but was able to stick it out. If you do not tolerate it, ask to be switched to vancomycin, but it can be a little pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Cl...] Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 I had a bad ear Infection right when my w/d started so I had to take antibiotics during acute. I was really worried cuz I was so sensitive to everything but I took amoxicillin and had no adverse effects from it. Remember, for every horror story you hear there's probably a hundred successes that u never hear about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
