I was prescribed this and also saw the warning for C. diff-associated diarrhea. It was scary, but my doctor said it's rare, so I just kept an eye out. I had some loose stools, but nothing too serious. I hope no one has serious side effects so we can go to the beach. I hear it's going to be a sunny day so I am hoping it is a nice sunny day.
I have seen reports of severe skin reactions and hearing loss. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact your doctor or seek medical attention immediately, especially if you have kidney problems or are taking high doses. I had a friend who had severe dizziness but he is ok now.
I had a mild rash and itching, but it went away after a few days. I was worried about the signs of liver problems, but I didn't experience any of those symptoms. I’m glad the suspension was easy for my daughter to take. I just wish the taste was better.
I've read that Erythromycin can interact with other medications, so be sure to tell your doctor about everything you're taking. I had to stop taking some other meds because they interacted with it. The suspension is a life saver for kids... my son can't swallow pills
I think the most worrying thing is the risk of an abnormal heartbeat. If you experience any heart issues, seek medical help right away. I like how my doctor called me and checked how I was doing... he was very helpful.
I had to take this for a urinary tract infection. It was a bit difficult to take as a suspension but I got used to it. I didn't experience any of the urgent side effects, but I did have some mild stomach pain.
I have to take it for the next 5 days. I feel like I can’t breathe. I had difficulty swallowing. I hope I don’t get any of the side effects. Erythromycin is great for most but I have heard it is very bad for some. I’m hoping for the best.
I took this for a skin infection and had no issues. I had to stop after one day though, because my kid hates the taste and refused to drink it. I never experienced any side effects. If urination problems come up, seek medical attention right away.
Stomach craps from day 1, but got used to it after a few days. Doctor said it is very common and goes away after a few days. The suspension was easier to give my son compared to the tablets he had
