Feeling better after 3 doses. The bacteria I'm infected with must be very susceptible to this drug. PLEASE DON'T STOP TAKING YOUR ANTIBIOTICS due to minor side effects. Switch them with your doctor so you don't stop cold and then develop resistant bacteria. You babies are a big reason why we have MRSA and other resistant pathogens.

This drug is terrible. Sure it will get rid of sinusitis, but your risk of getting C. Diff is dangerously high. Something needs to be done about the super bug. No one deserves to suffer that much.

After having taken the medication for three days, I became violently ill, I had a high fever along with sweats and chills, the next night I was hospitalized with C-Diff, and not just for the night. seven days later I was released from the hospital with watery stools still presisant. Its been two and a half weeks since being released and I still have loose stool with 7 or more movements a day. Total poison to my system!

I am currently on day 4 of taking this medication and I am very pleased. It took 4 days for me to notice big results, but the skin on lower leg (cellulitis) is clearing up and the pain in the back of my knee is completely gone. I recently had arthroscopic surgery on my knee and I have an autoimmune disorder, apparently a good foundation for cellulitis. My doctors have given me all types of drugs, this is the first drug to give me noticeable results.

took 1 tablet the first day and 3 1/2 weeks later I have no taste or smell. That happened after one pill . I did take it with food so I had no stomach issues. I took the med. for 4 days and said never again. But I hope to one day be able to smell and taste again!!!!

Horrible drug. Seemed OK for first three days, then I started having a lot of trouble breathing, blood pressure went through the roof and heart was racing. Also had headaches. So short of breath one night I panicked and felt like I was dying. Never again! Bad drug.

I took this antibiotic for the first time, treating a sinus infection. Super easy to take, I saw improvement quickly. On the last day of my run (10 days), I had an allergic reaction (itchy feet and hands, hives everywhere, swelling of my mouth and tongue). It's an effective antibiotic and will be great for you if you don't have a reaction.

This may be a rare side-effect but shortly after taking this drug I was completely non-functional. Dizziness, blurred vision, heart palpitations, trouble breathing, confusion and the like. A family member took me to see my doc and she confirmed that it was the medicine. Just be careful about notifying someone if you have any of these symptoms because it could've been life-threatening.

My dosage is 250 mg per tablet. I have experienced thus far only nausea this started on my 5th day of taking the meds. I have been sipping ginger ale and green tea to calm my to stomach. No other side effects thus far. I am amazed at how congested I was, it has helped to clear that up, my chest does hurt when I cough now. Still not feeling 100% but I am much better than I was 5 days ago.

I'm taking this med' for a SINUS INFECTION. I started this med' 3 days ago and I was hoping I felt better by now. But I still feel congested in the sinus' but now I feel it in my chest. I think the chest congestion is the result from my sinus'. When will I feel better?

The first day I took this medicine I got massive stomach cramps,but the second day I didn't. I realized I only ate a small amount of food the first time and the second day I ate it with dinner. You have to eat a good portion meal with this medicine otherwise you will get a stomach ache. Along as you do that you should be safe, I haven't gotten anymore cramping and I'm on my tenth day. Works wonderful, but does have the bitter taste.

This medication has worked very well for me. I noticed a difference within the first couple days. Question: Is it possible for this medication to cause me to lose my sense of taste? At first I thought it was a result of the sinus infection, but I just finished the meds this morning and am hoping that my sense of taste returns.
