flucloxacillin
Hi, i was told by my doctor that ibuprofen was fine to take with with my flucloxacillin.
Hi, I was prescribed with Flucloxacillin for general infection apparently it helps with scalp infections to.
No you cannot take flucloxacillin when pregnant. the leaflet says, 'do not take if you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant' therefore i wouldn't take it.
Take a decongestant and chew gum.
yes
Amoxicullin is best but flucloxacillin can be used to. most GP'S will proscribe amoxicilin unless you are unable to take any medication containing penicillin.
yes
No . You need penicillin , or Amoxicillin .
The cause for tonsillitis is either viral infections or streptococcal infection. You do not need antibiotic for viral infections. The bacteria which causes tonsillitis is streptococci. Streptococci practically never produce beta lactamase enzyme. Flucloxacillin is used to treat the beta lactamase producing bacteria. The antibacterial action of flucloxacillin itself is very less as compared to penicillin or ampicillin. So flucloxacillin for tonsillitis is a bad choice.
Flucloxacillin can be used to treat the urinary tract infection. Use of isolated flucloxacillin is not recommended for this condition. As it has little antibacterial activity of it's own. It should be used preferably with ampicillin or amoxicillin. (Resistance to flucloxacillin was reported for the first time, in London, in 1964, by staphylococci.)
you only take it an hour before food and two hours after food
