When I was researching antibiodics for my lung infection I believe that all

of them said to tell your Dr. if you were taking coumadin. I recommend you talk

with your pharmacist and see which, if any, antibiotics have the least effect.

I just finished a round of Biaxin 1000 mg SR 1 twice a day for lung

infection. No problems.......but I do take acididophilus every day

to replenish all of the " good " bacteria that antibiotics kill off!!
