Hallo,

my two last antibiotica ivs were terrible. I was sick five days and than it was ok. Tomorrow I will start again a antibiotica iv therapy. I am afraid of the sickness. I did the therapy two times in the year but only the two last times were so terrible.
Does somebody know this problem? Or know somebody a medicine against the sickness (before the sickness start as prophylaxe)?
Bye,Silke

I'm sorry you're having trouble with the IV medications. It's probably not much consolation, but what you're describing is not that uncommon. For me, an IV course usually follows a distinctive pattern. The first several days I am "sick as a dog" as the expression goes, then I level off, and finally, I end on a high note, feeling quite well.

If the sickness you're experiencing is nausea, then perhaps you're very sensitive to the antibiotics. Since they knock out the bacteria in the body (even the good ones) it's very common to have stomach upset, diarrhea, etc. Sometimes eating small meals that can settle your stomach will help. Also, eating things that can help restore the balance of good bacteria in your body can help too.

Good luck! I hope you find the right solution with the fewest side effects.

I remember a few times while on Iv's i would get nauseas and i found that eating a lot of yogurt helped a little. It seemed to help settle my stomach a bit. Maybe you could try that......

Hi,
thank you for yours answers.
I have started my iv therapy since tuesday. I started on Tuesday with the bacterias LGG to protect the stomach and I ate joghurt. But it did not help. On Friday I had nausea. But today it is better. I could eat something again.
I hope it will stop now.

Hi Silke,
Sometimes that happens to me when i am on certain iv antibiotics. The first day or so, i get nausea with the meds but after a few days of being on it, my stomach gets used to it. Im glad you are feeling a bit better today with it. Hope you feel good as new soon <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
