Have you ever taken antibiotics???

Question

I am new to this medication and for those who have experience with this medication i will like your advice please.
I just took one 15 minutes and I want to go out and play soccer because I'm bored. Is there anything wrong with this?

Will the medication have any bad effects on me if I do?

Thanks

Answer 1

should be fine. iver never experienced a problem with activity on antibiotics.

things to rememeber:

if you feel very dizzy, and/or start to get rashes or hives, you might be allergic. go to the hospital.

also this is the most importnat thing, TAKE EVERY LAST PILL THE DOCTOR GAVE YOU!! even if you stop being sick, take the rest of the doses until they are gone. not at the same time of course, but on the regular schedule. not finishing your prescription could cause the bacteria to mutate and become drug resistant. you will get sick again or infect others with a bacteria that is not suseptible to the medicine.

Answer 2

If your antibiotics were prescribed by a doctor, they are probably safe. If you are still sick (fever, broken bone, whatever) DON'T play soccer. Listen to your body!

The one thing about anti-biotics is that they can kill the good bacteria in your body, too, and give you the runs. Sometimes the doctor prescribes a pill to help with those side-effects -- but it's a good idea to eat yogurt every day while you are taking the anti-biotics.

If you feel funny symptoms, like dizziness, talk to your doctor -- s/he can switch your medications.

My body doesn't like a lot of the anti-biotics out there, so I've had to learn how to cope with them. BUT, anti-biotics do a lot of good things, too!

Answer 3

The main thing you would want to worry about going to play soccer after taking an antibiotic is that they can cause diarrhea. I would suggest eating a yogurt or getting some acidophilous before you play soccer to replace the normal flora in your intestines that the antibiotic kills.

Answer 4

You dont say what kind of antibiotics you are taking but Im sure you are ok as the doctor would have told you if you were going to have to watch for anything. Side effects from antibiotics are generally mild if any unless you would be allergic

Answer 5

You don't say what kind of antibiotic....which makes it difficult...but the only thing I would say is use sunscreen because some antibiotics make you really sensative to the sun. Other than that...if you feel good enough to go play soccer, go for it!

Answer 6

It depends on what kind of antibiotic you are on, but you shouldnt have a problem. Like someone else mentioned some antibiotics may make you sensitive to the sun, but in my experiences..they've just made me a bit sleepy.

Also, milk and dairy products may make you a bit nauseous as in my experiences with amoxicillin.

Answer 7

Depends on the medication. But usually antibiotics don't have anything to do with being active after.

Answer 8

antibiotics have no effect on your physical abilities, unless you have an allergy to them. in this case you will most likely have already experienced any allergies. antibiotics can kill any of the "good" bacteria you have in you, which may cause yeast infections. there are plenty of antifungals to cure this, it is very common. hope you feel better!
