Alex had augmentin once. First, it tastes awful and I had a horrible time just getting it down. Then it gave him severe diaherra. No behavior problems though. I just lie and say that he is allergic whenever it is offered.
My son has had this several different times..with no bad reactions.
Good Luck!!!
Weird - as a second option they did not give Fabian Augmentin for his ear infection the second time around, they gave him omnicef (he had an ear infection for one week then one week off and then again on the third week) - none of my kids have ever had augmentin
My son can take amoxicillin but not augmentin; aside from the severe diarrhea, after a few days he broke out in hives; but no behavioral effectAndrewsmommy, are you a doctor? Nurse? Just curious, your response was so complete. and you used the word "case"...I am a family practice doctor but have not been working outside of the home for the past year. It is very difficult in my area to find part-time work that benefits both the employer and employee when it comes to family medicine. My last job was "part-time" but I spent equivalent to full time working...just squeezed into fewer days. Prior to that I was a young and idealistic solo doc but when I got pregnant with Andrew, I had complications, and although I tried to make it work after he was born, I had to let the practice, and my credit, go. I wouldn't change that decision, however. And when my last year to year contract was not renewed as I was "low man on the part-time totem pole", I was initially upset, but now I realize that it was the greatest gift to be able to spend all of this time with Andrew and to learn everything that I can about ASD...Bet you didn't expect this long of an epistle!
