Re: Side effects of tindamax? 12 yr old-Judy

[Guest guest]

Judy,

I'm so sorry you're going through this. Why not call Dr. '

office today? When my daughter was having problems when she restarted

Rifampin (total insomnia, stomach cramps), they suggested stopping

until she felt better (in her case 24hrs), then restarting gradually

and it absolutely helped with her symptoms. I have a mental block

about leaving a message with the service, but they are really good

about getting back to you quickly...

All the best ,

Aviva

Judy,

I know, I feel the same way too, but they do transmit the messages to

him. It's also difficult because you have to hang around at home for

a call back and I don't like speaking about health issues on a cell

phone.Try calling first thing in the morning, they have less going

on, are less backed up. I think most of them are nurses and can still

offer you guidance with the abx. Just give it a shot.

Good luck,

Aviva
