Recently I had to have antibiotics for 3 concurrent infections (both ears and

sinus). I was

so afraid to take them, but brought the list in for my doctor to choose. I did

really well

digestive system wise on a sister of eurthromycin (I know I spelled that wrong),

it was a 6

day dose that keeps working for 10 days. I had no troubles at all, just made

sure to take

my acidophilus and yogurt at different times during the day. The doctor wanted

me to

take Amoxicillin, but I refused that, knowing it could harm my intestinal

healing the worst,

so he chose one that was middle of the road. We shall see if it worked on the

infections...

UC/C

Remicade
