The day after I finished the course of pills I got a terrible rash which developed into hives from head to toe. The swelling took a day to go down and the red blotches will take longer to go.

Within 3 doses I experienced severe diarrhea that has persisted for two weeks. The only relief is large doses of acidophilus. I was told to stop the treatment immediately but the damage is done.
