Side effects drug: IF you know that a specific drug has side effects then make sure your health care provider knows this. If you feel you are having side effects do the same. Ask you r health care provider if there is an alternative antibiotic you can safely take. It is in part your job to make your health car provider aware of these things don't be passive about what you know what you think they know about you
