Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 I'm not sure but I recall reading somewhere that Augmentin, Doxycycline or Zithromax are good. I have no idea where I read it, but wrote them down and have them with my papers. Also have read that if you take a n antibiotic then you should take a Probiotic 3 times a day while taking the antibiotic. Perhaps someone else can help with this. Sue What antibiotics are safe to take for someone who is highly allergic to molds including candida? It appears I have an infection on my foot and I need to be able to help the physician pick an antibiotic that will not cause undue problems. Most have no idea....... Suggestions please? **************One site keeps you connected to all your email: AOL Mail, Gmail, and Mail. Try it now.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Hi, I had a fungal infection.. My medical doctor suggested a very strong acidopholus or bifidopholus. She suggested all natural therapy of herbs and supplements to rebuild the immune system. There are anti-fungal herbs. You need to find the right combination for you. She believes that all antibiotics will cause secondary infections and make the matter worse. Your Friend From: semco_semco_semco <semco_semco_semco@...> Subject: [] What antibiotics are safe?

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Even though I clearly mention that I cannot take any antibiotics in the Myacin family due to previous uncomfortable side effects, they are still pushing for me to take them. Anyhow I safely can take Keflex. You could google it and see what information it gives you. I have no side effects whatsoever. llaci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Don't know how good this antiobiotic is for your foot but they gave me the Z-pak when I became allergic to penicillin, etc. And you don't take as much as the other meds. Haven't had it for so me time, but just a suggestion. > > What antibiotics are safe to take for someone who is highly allergic to molds including > candida? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Keflex will work for an infection on your foot. It just happened to my sister in law. Do you wonder why you got an infection on your foot and not elsewhere? It says an infection will start up on skin where there are scratches or dry cracked skin. llaci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Which herbs are anti-fungal? For my infection, I doubt it would have worked. It took several weeks of Diflucan to get over it. llaci Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Keflex is not made from a mold off spring of sorts? No, I don't wonder why I have an infection on my foot. > From: llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> > Subject: [] Re: What antibiotics are safe? > > Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008, 8:14 PM > Keflex will work for an infection on your foot.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 So you had a yeast infection. Mine is not a yeast infection. Not a fungal infection. Just an infection. However, I am allergic to most molds and do not want to take an antibiotic that will worsen my allergies. All infections are not fungal. > From: llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> > Subject: [] Re: What antibiotics are safe? > > Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008, 8:19 PM > Which herbs are anti-fungal?

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 I am more worried about what it is made of than the side effects. > From: llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> > Subject: [] Re: What antibiotics are safe? > > Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008, 4:19 PM > Even though I clearly mention that I cannot take any > antibiotics in > the Myacin family due to previous uncomfortable side > effects, they are > still pushing for me to take them. > > Anyhow I safely can take Keflex.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Thanks, however, this is not a fungal infection. Just a normal one, but will need antibiotics to help it go away. > > From: semco_semco_semco <semco_semco_semco@...> > Subject: [] What antibiotics are safe? > > Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008, 12:15 PM > > > > > > > What antibiotics are safe to take for someone who is highly > allergic to molds including > candida? > > It appears I have an infection on my foot and I need to be > able to help the physician pick an > antibiotic that will not cause undue problems.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Keflex keeps coming up. I will do some research on that. Usually antibiotics don't give me thrush, but many are made from mold products. > From: Gingersnap1964@... <Gingersnap1964@...> > Subject: Re: [] What antibiotics are safe? > > Date: Sunday, December 28, 2008, 1:46 PM > iVE TAKEN kEFLEX AND HAD NO TROUBLE WITH CANDIDA WHICH IS A > SHOCK BECAUSE > MOST ANTIBIOTICS GIVE ME THRUSH > jANET > > > ************** > One site keeps you connected to all your email: AOL Mail, > Gmail, and Mail.

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 Keflex is one of the " big guns " and should only be used as a last resort. One doctor told me that Keflex can have very bad side effects. ________________________________ From: llaci2003 <jjaksic@...> Sent: Sunday, December 28, 2008 6:14:57 PM Subject: [] Re: What antibiotics are safe?

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 I am now reading that it is somehow " kin " to Penicillin. Says something to the effect that if you cannot take penicillin then you will probably have a reaction to keflex. Says it is made from cephalosporin mold. Hummmm....

Guest guest Posted December 28, 2008 Report Share Posted December 28, 2008 The best way to find out what kind you need is to have a doctor to take a culture of your infection. Certain antibiotics will only work for certain infections. If you need an antibiotic, by all means don't be fearful of taking one. The issues come in due to the over use of antibiotics or taking antibiotics when they are not needed. Just make sure you take an acidophilus or a good probiotic supplement. I took one from the health food store in capsule form as well as ate plenty of yogurt and drank buttermilk. --- In , C A <semco_semco_semco@...> wrote: > > Thanks, however, this is not a fungal infection.
