I was supposed to take it for an inflammation in the tonsil area.I had the feeling that I didn’t tolerate the antibiotic at all.Had problems with palpitations for weeks after taking it, which first occurred after the second dose. I also felt light-headed. I felt dizzy and alternately ‘hot and cold’. Nausea and constipation were added from the third day onwards. The nausea was really severe. I went back to the doctor with these symptoms and was told to stop taking the medicine. I also had a slight rash on my thighs. I also had severe upper abdominal pain and was later diagnosed with mild gastritis. This had probably already existed beforehand, but taking the medication (in my subjective opinion) made it ‘get really bad’, as I had never noticed anything before. The antibiotic helped well against the actual problem, but I wouldn’t recommend it because of the symptoms. However, I cannot judge whether in my case there is an intolerance to the antibiotic itself.
I was supposed to take the Roxi for a week because I had the flu. The next day I suddenly had a swollen eye. Started with itching in the eye. I have had breathing problems for over 9 weeks. Nobody can help. It is always blamed on the psyche when nothing is found.
Suddenly I have extreme food allergies. I can no longer wash my laundry with Lenor and I can no longer use my face creams, scrubs etc. I am allergic to so many things. I am now allergic to so many things. After weeks I realised that it could only be the medication. Because all the symptoms started so slowly the next day. I took it 3 weeks ago and I’m still not well today.
This medication has ruined my life. I was out every day and now I’m miserable every day and spend most of my time at home with my baby, looking forward to bedtime again.
