There are a few ways to help prevent the chances of nausea when taking an antibiotic:
- You should not eat anything for 2 hours before taking the antibiotic, or for 1 hour after.
- Eat bland, non-acidic foods like saltine crackers, bland starches (rice, potatoes, or even avocado, etc), toast (NOT HIGH FIBER BREAD), etc.
- Foods to AVOID are: DAIRY (Calcium lessens the effectiveness of the antibiotic), FIBER (Foods like nuts, green leafy vegetables, bran, etc cause your stomach to take longer to empty itself which in turn can cause the antibiotic to take longer to enter your bloodstream), ACIDS (grapefruit juice, tomato-based foods, etc which can increase the chance of nausea).
- And also make sure that you pay attention to other medications you might be taking that list nausea/vomiting as side effects.
As far as mitigating/relieving the effects of nausea once they start, Ill I can say is to try and tough it out, or lay down with a cool or warm, damp washcloth on your throat, or if need be.... just vomit and you'll feel better (as long as it has been at least 30 minutes to an hour after your dose so the antibiotic has a chance to get into your bloodstream and not end up in the toilet)
