I was wondering if it is a high dose for a woman who is 23 yrs old and 113 lbs? I have to take it two times a day (this is the second time I had strep throat in 3 weeks?!) Should this medication work cause my other one didn't (Omnicef). :( I just don't want to get a reaction if it is a high dose...if anyone can help me, that would be GREAT!!

My husband has the flu and he is so sick. He threw up like 6X today he is pale and has body aches and all he wants to do is sleep and rest. I had a touch of the flu where my stomach was very senstive and all I could eat was bread and dry cookies water and iced tea, although I am feeling better, I feel very weak and I cannot eat regular food yet. What are good ways to get over the flu and how can my husband and I feel better? What foods should we be eating? What medicines should we be taking? What foods should I give my husband he said he was hungry but I dont want him to throw up again, any advice you have would be very helpful and thank you in advance for posting.

If we have to have an operation the surgeons work in sterile conditions with masks gowns ect. so that it limits the risk of infection. Why then don't Vets have to take so many precautions ? don't bugs get into animal's wounds and cause serious infections?
