I was prescribed Cefprozil 125mg/5ml Susp 75ml for my kid's ear infection and I am wondering if anyone else has used this medication and what their experience was like. I want to make sure I am taking it correctly and that it is safe for my child. I know it is important to finish the full course, but I am concerned about the possible side effects, especially the severe ones. Has anyone else had any issues with this medication?

I had to give this to my son for a throat infection. He didn't like the taste, but it worked well. Just make sure to shake the bottle well before each dose.

I've heard that antibiotics can cause yeast infections. Is that true for Cefprozil as well? I'm a bit worried about that.

I think any antibiotic can have side effects, but I wouldn't worry too much about the rare ones. Just keep an eye out for any signs of an allergic reaction or severe diarrhea.

This medication saved my son's ear infection. No side effects, but I made sure to give it on time. Safety first.

I've used Cefprozil before for a sinus infection and it worked great, but my doctor said to make sure I finished the full course. I didn't have any severe side effects, just a bit of an upset stomach.

I had diarrhea after finishing my course of Cefprozil. It was not severe but made me wonder if it was connected.

I'm a pharmacist. Some people don’t realize that diarrhea can be a sign of serious condition and some antibiotics, including Cefprozil, can cause this. If you're concerned call your doctor right away to decide how to manage this symptom.
