I hate the medication BIAXIN!

It was prescribed to me today for a Sinus infection and I feel 100X worse right now....soooo sick to my stomach, dizzy and achy! Not to mention the most wretched taste in my mouth!

I called the doctor and demanded to be put on something else...I cannot go through 9 more days of thisChat Icon

Sorry needed to vent!Chat Icon

Yeah at first they weren't going to let me...did I mention...a racing heartbeat too....I got on the phone and I was like...Look you are prescibing me something else...I cannot take this I feel awful....

My mother has had a horrible reaction to this crap too...she actually said when it first came on the market two nurses that she worked with were virtually suicidal from itChat Icon

Yes, they are big yellow pills.
You should drink lots of water. One of the side effects is dryness in the mouth therefore that awful taste you are referring to.
Feel better soon !!

Re: I hate the medication BIAXIN!

Feel better!!!

Biaxin was a lifesaver for me once - when I was in college was prescribed penicilin for strep throat and bronchitis and it just got worse and worse and when I went home to my own doctor he said "penicilin isn't going to help either of those" and gave me Biaxin. I remember not feeling so great on it - but it sure helped me recover.

My all-time favorite is the Z-Pack !!! That thing is a MIRACLE!!!

I'm allergic to biaxin(at least I put it down on any form because I'm almost certain I am)
Even though zpac is strong, I always prefer that for an antibiotic. I especially like the fact that it's only 3 days!!
