I was prescribed Amox-Clav 200mg/5ml Susp 100ml for an infection, but I'm a bit worried about the potential side effects. The medication information mentions some severe and potentially life-threatening side effects, such as allergic reactions, drug-induced enterocolitis syndrome, and liver problems. I've read about the possibility of C. diff-associated diarrhea (CDAD) and severe skin reactions like Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). I know these are rare, but I'm still a bit anxious. Has anyone else experienced any of these side effects, or does anyone have advice on how to mitigate these risks? I'm hoping to hear from people who have taken this medication before or have some knowledge about it.

I was recently prescribed Clobetasol Prop 0.05% Gel for my eczema. I've been using it for a few days, and while it seems to be helping with the itching, I'm a bit nervous about the side effects. Has anyone else used this gel? What was your experience like? Did you encounter any of the serious side effects mentioned in the prescription information? I'd love to hear from anyone who has used this medication, especially if you have tips on how to minimize side effects or any general advice.
