Don't **** around, go to the doctor.

I am currently trying to fight off an infection in my right leg after a bad case of poison oak on the back of my right thigh and calf got infected. I have been laid up for over a week. They started me out on Tetracycline, which I found out I am allergic to because it gave me a rash on most of my body.

They switched me to Bactrim which I also appear to be allergic to as the rash hasn't cleared and may even be getting worse. I can't tell which is worse the rash or the Poison Oak. The infection seems to be getting better but at this point it's hard to tell because of the rash.

I should have gone to the doc sooner but I thought it was just the poison oak because when I get it, I get it BAD so it looks like an infection. Turned out this time it was. If I had gone earlier I might have been able to fight it with some amoxocyllin which I'm fine with.

ok thanks for convincing me to go to the doctor everyone.

He gave me cephalexin and sulfamethoxazole/trimethropin.

Can I booze? I've always heard that alcohol kills the effect of antibiotics but it seems this might be a myth. The warnings on the side don't mention alcohol. Tell me I can booze it up please.

Antibiotics have been one of the greatest success stories of modern medicine - up there with the discovery of vaccination. There are many myths about mixing alcohol and antibiotics and most of them are just myths and nothing more! It's one of the great myths that mixing antibiotics with alcohol can seriously mess you up. While it's unwise to mix medicine with alcohol, only few drugs are affected by the action of it. The truth is that antibiotics have different routes of leaving the body, some broken down in the liver, excreted in the urine or passing straight through in the faeces. To a large extent this determines how long they stay active in the body and how often you need to take them. Alcohol may increase the excretion rate or slow down the rate drugs are broken down.


Antibiotics and alcohol
Everyone has heard about the common myth conception that alcohol should never be taken with antibiotics arose.
Even so, it's well known that alcohol can interact quite nastily with a small number of modern drugs potentially causing

* nausea,
* vomiting,
* convulsions,
* abdominal cramps,
* headaches,
* fast heart rate and
* Flushing.

But these few interactions are well known to both medical doctors and pharmacists.
Mind you, alcohol can put an extra load on your liver and immune system and impair your judgment, liberate aggressive tendencies, reduce your energy state.
Only few classes of antibiotics should be avoided when drinking alcohol.
It is necessary to completely avoid drinking when taking the following antibiotics:

* Metronidazole – the side-effects include flushing, breathlessness, headache, increased or irregular heart rate, low blood pressure, nausea and vomiting.
* Tinidazole is chemically similar to metronidazole and so may cause the same reaction
* furazolidone (Furoxone),
* griseofulvin (Grisactin),
* Antimalarial Quinacrine (Atabrine)…

If you are on antibiotics you shouldn't drink heavily...a couple beers or glasses of wine won't kill you but it's best not to get wasted. There are NO known interactions between alcohol and antibiotics, but alcohol will effect your immune system and if you have pre-existing liver problems it could make that worse.

Why not just abstain from drinking for a couple days or at least do it in moderation until you're all better? Oh, and take your meds until they are gone...don't just stop because your symptoms go away.

ooh good luck with that, it's the same one I'm on. I have a rash in my groin, on my stomach, on my arms, on my legs, it's unbearable. You may want to go back to get some antihistamines or you won't be able to sleep.
