Im on holiday in thailand and taking augmentin that a friend gave cos i got a bad flu (antibiotics prob not for flu, but im feeling better). now another friend of mine is also getting sick, can i give her some of that antibiotics or do i have to complete the course?
Hello Your friend advised antibiotics and you got relief. Now your friend is suffering (another) and you want to give antibiotics. The self-medication is a dangerous trend. The 2nd most important point I want to tell you is that FLU is a viral disease and don't respond to antibiotics. When flu occurs either take anti-viral or simple paracetamol but after the advice of doctor. Since you got relief with antibiotics (maybe mere coincidence). Need not complete the course rather simple paracetamol is sufficient. If you have any problem. Please consult a doctor and get his treatment. Good luck.
