Hello, I am having a lot of abdominal discomfort after switching antibiotics after my wisdom teeth extraction. I went from amoxicillin 500mg to azithromycin 250mg because of severe vomiting due to the amoxil. Now Im constipated and my stool is gray with mucus. Im assuming, since I vomited so much, that I lost a lot of the bile my body had produced. Its also worth noting that Im not eating as much since I cant chew, so Im not expecting these prolific BMs,
Hi, I carefully read your question and got your point. The problem started after you are given broad spectrum antibiotics ve seen so many patients in my clinic with such problem you are facing. Amoxacillin and especially azithromycin cause severe gastrointestinal upset and diarrhea. I recommend my patient take them on empty stomach. You should not worry about the pain abdomen and loss of appetite as you will feel better when you stop these antibiotics. I recommend my patient to take CEA Chat Doctor. You can contact with your local doctor as these are prescription based
