Re: allergy to medications for yeast and bacteria infections From: Robin (anonymous@obgyn.net) Sun, 2 Jul 2000 15:12:23 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: Elia: "annovulatory cycle question" Previous message: Ruby: "allergy to medications for yeast and bacteria infections" In reply to: Ruby: "allergy to medications for yeast and bacteria infections" Next in thread: William F. von Almen, II, MD, FACOG: "Re: allergy to medications for yeast and bacteria infections" Hi Ruby, Before I got to the part where you Dr. wants to send you to an ID Specialist, I was thinking the same thing. They have training in infectious processes, so they are the ones to see, especially when someone has frequent infections. Levaquin is not a benign drug either. Take it from someone that developed C. Difficile from it....that is not an infection you want to have either! All antibiotics carry a risk, and it is best if you have someone Rx'ing them that really knows the ins and outs of the drugs. Hope you find relief soon! -- Robin At Sun, 2 Jul 2000, Ruby wrote: > >I'm severely allergic to sulfa medications, flagyl and augmentin.
