A member asked:

I took biaxin (clarithromycin) friday and saturday and on saturday i had sex, i had a reaction sunday from the anti biotic and wednesday im nauseous am i pregnant?

Pregnant?: This is doubtful, as symptoms of pregnancy usually do not appear that quickly. If you think you may be pregnant wait until you have missed a period, get a home pregnancy test kit and check a first morning voided urine. Good luck.
