This drug, while apparently helping get rid of my sinus infection symptoms within the first couple days, has also made me nauseated & given me pretty strong stomach cramping, along with very loose stools. I am afraid to go anywhere in case I need to go the bathroom asap! The trade-off from having a severe sinus infection to now having to be near a bathroom around the clock & feel sick to my stomach is NOT worth it. I quit taking the medication 24 houea after starting it. Also the awful taste makes it an even worse choice for an antibiotic, in my opinion. I definitely will ask for a different antibiotic if I ever am prescribed one again!

I was prescribed this drug,Cefuroxime Axetil 500 mg.for a sinus infection.It had a very bitter taste even though I took it with food twice a day On the third morning I developed severe abdominal pain and very loose stools. I was running to the bathroom very frequently and only had a little ginger ale and crackers throughout the day. I quit!! I felt lousy all day.

I am on this medicine twice a day for 10 days. I've noticed I've had horrible headaches. It makes me very irritable thanks to the tremendous headaches it gives. Despite being on it, I still have pain in my eardrums which it was supposed to help with that, according to my doctor. It tastes horrible like everyone says, which causes you to not want to swallow it easily.

Very hard to take. Starts dissolving immediately. Very bad lingering taste.

Constant headache cleared immediatley now I'm into my 5th day still feeling a little uncomfortable somewhat of a periodic headache shock doesn't hurt just uncomfortable . I have 2 weeks treatment if not completly cleared, I will go back to the Dr. to prescribe another RX. I am able to function way better than I have been.
