Why can't you drink when taking antibiotics?
Most antibiotics do not adversely react with alcohol. This is actually an old wives tail dating back to WWII when penicillin was heavily used but in short supply. Soldiers were told that they couldn't drink on the antibiotics in an attempt to keep them sober so that they wouldn't become inebriated and have intercourse with prostitutes, thus catching venereal diseases that would require antibiotic therapy.
However, there are a few antibiotics that do have a true reaction with alcohol. For example, Metronidazole inhibits acetaldehyde dehydrogenase thus interfering with alcohol metabolism. These patients will have side effects if alcohol is consumed while the patient is taking the drug and thus, the patient should be instructed to abstain from alcohol use for the duration of the prescription.
We all know, or we should, that the least "junk " we take ,the better is for are well being.
However, at some time we all need to take pills of one kind or another, and we
hope the Doctor, that prescribed them, knows what he is doing, and that he or she keeps up with all new, information and up dates, on the field of his practice.
Hard to find since they, are like the rest of us, thinking about paying the bills,\
which for most Doctors, are way out, also their new Mercedes, the village
in Italy etc.
Most of us, do not have those problems

Can vaginal yeast infection be prevented?
Wear cotton panties. Don't use vaginal douches. Never use petroleum jelly or oils for lubrication. If you are being treated for an infection, take the medicine.

Yes, absolutely. They are totally different drugs.

Can you take amoxicillin while you are on Tamiflu?
I can only tell you what happened to me. In May of 2009 I had an upper respiratory infection including severe laryngitis. My Dr prescribed Tamiflu. Note that at this point in time the world was going through the Asian Swine flu scare. I took it for 3 or 4 days without incident. After this initial period, I called my Dr to tell him that I was coughing up green phlegm. I had always been under the assumption that green phlegm was a sign of a bacterial infection. My Dr apparently agreed with that assessment, because he ADDED Augmentin 875 mg to my medications. Please note, I had taken Augmentin many times over many years with no problem.
Within a day, I experienced a SEVERE reaction. Both of my hands swelled up, and were rendered unusable. The pain was excruciating. The first thumb joint where the thumb connects to the hand was the center of the pain. I could not button my shirt, hold a pen, turn a key, open a door, etc. The pharmacist wisely advised me to stop taking both medications immediately, which I did. The pain lasted for over a week. Actually as I recall, the pain took almost a month to entirely go away.
After the the first 4 days I did go toI went to another Dr- an ENT specialist who prescribed a cortisone type drug in a gradually descending dose pack that I don't recall the name of- something like methyl- pred- something or other, but it cured me in short order. In short, Tamiflu plus Augmentin was NOT ok for me.

Can you harm yourself by taking too many antibiotics?
It depends on what antibiotic you have taken too much of and what other disease states you have (renal insufficiency, diabetes, pt receiving warfarin, etc). If you have just taken an extra pill, it is unlikely that you will experience any adverse effects from it unless you have a condition that pre-disposes you to being sensitive to the side effects of antibiotics. Always try to take your antibiotic as directed. More than ordered is not better. In most cases, it is just a waste. You get the germ-killing effect at dose x and anything more does not produce any better or quicker results. Taking more than directed just causes you to run out too soon. There are some bugs out there such as Strep A that causes strep throat that you really need to take the antibiotics for the full 10 day course or it will come back on you.
