My nephrologist has prescribed cefalexin 250 mg for painful pimples. Pimples go away after taking it for 5 days. But pimples come back after 2 weeks. I have observed this several times. Any permanent solution?

Hello. I'm 18 year old female. I had pneumonia 4 years ago and since then I have problems with phlegm. Whenever I go to the doctor, she tells me that it's a virus or a flu and she gives me some pills, such as amoxicillin or cefalexin. At the moment, they help me, but the problem is coming back. This makes me very bothered, sometimes I think i'm going to choke. No other symptoms. What can I do?

Your symptoms might be due to damage caused to your lungs during that pneumonia. It's called bronchiectasis. U need a evaluation by a chest specialist who can guide you better. Pneumococcal and swine flu vaccines should be given to you. Meet some chest specialist.

He prescribed cefalexin, I thought it was to alleviate stomach pain so I took them for 2 days off and on then stopped. I realised 10 days later my mistake and that they are antibiotics.

If you are not having any digestive problems then you need not take any supplements as god has given you a very strong digestive system. Without indications any medication can be harmful. You can take curd aa it contains lactobacillus.

Hello, I am marin and I am 25 years old male. I am 172 cm and 98 kgs. I got throat pain and fever and my gp prescribed me antibiotic called medoclav (amoxicillin + clavulanic acid). My dose was 3 times daily 1 pill, which is 125 mgs. When I started using it I got diarrhea and on the second day I started probiotic line forte (lactobacillus and bifidobacterium). On the 3rd day I felt better, but then I started feeling pain in my whole belly especially when I press it ot move and also I am feeling pain in my waist and little pain in my testicles. Could the reason be my treatment with the antibiotic and the probiotic or its something totally different? What can be this and what should I do? List of my medication: medoclav (amoxicillin + clavulanic acid) - 3 x 125 mg flavamed (ambroxol hydrochloride) - 3 x 15 mg olint (xylometazoline hydrochloride) 3 times daily ansibell (chlorhexidine dihydrochloride / benzocaine / enoxolone) 5 mg / 4 mg / 3 mg compressed lozenges vitamin c 2 x 500 mg line forte (lactobacillus and bifidobacterium)

Your doctor is treating you properly. Just make sure you are well hydrated and all these symptoms will subside as your gut recolonises with the good probiotics to replace the ones destroyed by the antibiotic co-amoxyclav (medoclav).
