A member asked:
I wanted to know when you take antibiotics, do you always feel the side effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Side effects: It depends on the antibiotic (broad spectrum or not) and some antibiotics just by the nature of their design can be more upsetting to the GI track. Please check with your md if the symptoms persist or if you get a rash or itchy.
