antibiotics for strep? (time sensitive)

[Guest guest]

Hi there,

My toddler daughter was up in the night with fever and sore throat. Since we

have recently been exposed to a family with multiple cases of strep, I am

thinking I will probably have to take her to the doctor.

We have been on the SCD since the end of January 2009. My daughter is gluten

sensitive/celiac and had a probably yeast overgrowth since October of 2008. I

just hate the thought of antibiotics!

Are there some antibiotics that are easier on the gut than others? I found a

list on pecanbread related to clostridium difficile. Is this THE recommended

list?

Also what about the sugars and other junk that is in antibiotics? I've seen

info. about compounding meds but don't know if that is available at my local

pharmacy.

Thanks,
