4000 mg of antibiotics?


Question:
Is 4000 mg of Augmentin a day for 10 days really safe? I take 2000 in the morning and 2000 at night. Until I go to Ear, Nose and Throat doctor. I had a headache for two weeks with no other symptoms. Well they did a CT and said my sinuses were swollen so they gave me zithromax and my head still hurt so the nurse prac. prescribed the augmentin with a referral to see an ENT specialist. I have no other symptoms, no runny nose, no stuffy-ness, no chest pain nothing just a bad headache

Answers:
the most I can see that one should take is 875 milligrams every 8- 12 hours. which would add up to 2,625 per 24 hour period. It seems that 4000 milligrams is a bit high. (Highly Infectious Venereal or Sexually Transmitted Ulcer, Presumed Infection in Febrile Neutropenic Patient, Bacterial Infection with Chronic Bronchitis, Diverticulitis, Infection of the Biliary Tract, Diabetic Foot Infection, Pediatric Fever without a Source, Dog Bite Wound, Cat Bite Wound, Human Bite Wound) these other things are to show you what a powerful drug this is and what it is used to treat.. Call another doctor or pharmacist and ask them this same questions if you want to be sure.
I believe that is too high. For severe infections 875 mg tablet every 12 hours or 500mg tablet every 8 hours is enough. With a very high dose you can have nausea, vomitting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. I advice you to go to the doctor and have your dose adjusted.
Sinus problems are due to the liver reflexing to the sinus. Fix the liver and you will see the sinus issues go away. Treat the sinus problem with drugs and you will see that the problem keeps happening over and over again. I guess someone needs to keep the drug companies and doctors in the style in which they have become accustomed.

Headaches can be caused by food allergies as well and this again, relates to the liver. If you take antibiotics, you will find that you will have Candida Albicans and this will set off a whole set of new problems for you, including headaches.

The antibiotics kill your intestinal flora. "Thank you doctor." These are the friendly bacteria that digest your food and kill bad bacteria. You cannot get these friendly bacteria back in the quantity you need from food or buying probiotics from the store.

In order to answer your question completely, I guess you need to define safe. Will it kill you? Most likely not. Will it damage you, yes. Doctors are constantly weighing the damage of the disease to the damage the treatment will do to you. I believe this is why they "practice" medicine.

If I were having these problems, this is what I would do.

Go to: www.healthline.cc (not .com) and order the following:

HCL detox kit. Take 2 to 4 Betaine HCL and 1 to 2 activator after each meal. Take 1 to 2 digestive enzyme during the meal. --------- This will cause you to start digesting your food and keep the liver from being inundated by toxins from rotting, fermenting, undigested food.

Liver detox --- this is a natural product made basically from pre digested tumeric, etc. and will detox the liver.

Go to: www.natren.com/ ------- purchase the 3 in 1 probiotic. They will ship it to you in dry ice and guarantee the potency. Take one of the capsules per day.

good luck to you
