I have been prescribed 400mg of metronidazole and 250mg of amoxycillin both to be taken together, 3x per day for 5 days.
This is for pericoronitis (infection of gum and soft tissue around wisdom tooth)
Started taking them Friday evening and since Saturday afternoon I have been feeli g queasy on and off, mild stomach cramps (no diarrihea) going to the loo more often and awful bloody wind
Are these symptoms likely to be due to the antibiotics? Has anyone else experienced similar?
I have also been drinking an Actimel a day since Friday which I don't normally do, but I read somewhere that actimel is good whilst taking antibiotics.
Any advice? Thanks
