Kokia SG i know this is off topic but i need response asap. 3 days ago i went to the doctor for my flu and i asked for anti biotic cos i needed to get well asap, i was given cephalexin (10 capsule, twice a day) Having finished like 6 capsules already, i realised this antibiotic causes mild nausea and noticeable weakness to me, should i stop taking it ? Will my sudden stop for this AB allow any bateria thats left alive to develop a tolerance to this drug in future ?
Bangulzai SG once taken the 1st antibiotic, u must finish the full courseif stop taking halfway the flu will develop an (edit) : resistance against this antibiotic in the future
Kokia SG omg man im doomed, cause it also causes abit of breathing difficulty for me i need to take a full deep breath a couple of times....
Kokia SG cant believe i actually ran 2.4km and did push ups cause im enlisting in 2 weeks mi cant afford to slack on training but today i totally notice this weakness very very heavily as if my knee cap is empty and my muscles seems to be non existent
Bangulzai SG the other only way is to look for that same doctor to express ur difficulties and see what can he help otherwise.
Choppy Hats SG You went to a doctor because of a flu? The feeling of being weak and having no strength is merely mental effect. It is brought on by the fact that you don't want to train. In that case, just rest for 1 day.
Kokia SG oh ya and for the anti runny nose and anti inflam i can stop as and when i feel i dont need it without finishing the entire course right this kind of med wont allow resistance to occur etc right ?
Bangulzai SG flu is virus, not bacteriaanyway, i urge u not to run 2.4 as the flu virus can attack ur heart
Kokia SG well i got 4 more capsules, meaning 2 more days so u think is it alright for me to start training on tuesday all the way when i finish this anti biotic cause its not mental the weakness is really obvious you can feel it one i force myself to exert but just no strength and the empty knee cap thing is the most obvious feel
Bangulzai SG oh ya and for the anti runny nose and anti inflam i can stop as and when i feel i dont need it without finishing the entire course right this kind of med wont allow resistance to occur etc right ? if these are stated as antibiotics, u must finish by hook or by crookif they are not stated as antibiotics, then no need to finish the whole course
Choppy Hats SG flu is virus, not bacteriaantibiotic is for against virusanyway, i urge u not to run 2.4 as the flu virus can attack ur heart 2.4km isn't really a large distance.
Kokia SG wah but i ran le omg will i be ok , also if really is flu virus means whether i finish this anti biotic or not makes no difference since there are no bateria to develop a tolerance ?
Choppy Hats SG wah but i ran le omg will i be okYou will be fine. I train even when I have fever, a small flu won't kill you.
