After the first day i started feeling sick to my stomach. I can barely eat because i feel like it is going to come right back up. I have felt a lot of discomfort on this medicine and now i have a yeast infection which is worse than the tooth infection which put me on the medicine in the first place. Wouldn't advice wearing jeans with a yeast infection. Its the worst thing ever.

Taking this drug for a sinus infection. 30...500 mg capsules every 8 hrs. The first week was fine and the infection cleared up quickly.

Broke out in a severe rash on my chest, arms, neck, and back. It has a tingly sensation, but not unbearable. The rash is read, and blotchy. Very uneasy on the eyes.
