A member asked:
I had a allergic reaction to biaoxin and had a tough time breathing so i switched to cefidir and i'm still having allergic reactions. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be: An allergic reaction to an antibiotic can take up to a few weeks to resolve. I doubt that you are reacting to the cefdinir. As long as the symptoms are abating i would not be too concerned. Antihistamines and if necessary oral steroids may help to control your symptoms until the reaction runs its course.
