Can pennicillion v potassium be crushed. i just had a root canal? can a root canal cause your balance to be off from bottom molar. i have vertigo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PenVeeK and vertigo: You should not crush your penicillin tabs. It will give you faster blood levels, irregular levels. A whole tablet dissolves slowly, giving you slow sustained blood levels, affording you greater therapeutic impact. The root canal is not a good suspect for your vertigo. Your family doctor or dentist should be able to help you get to the cause, which are numerous, but probably not your root canal.
