    Default Vomitting the pill? No, not that one.

    UGH!

    I'm supposed to take antibiotics for my vomiting on an empty stomach. I vomit every time I eat or drink. I vomited about 25 minutes after I took my antibiotic. In the mess of udon I had eaten 5 minutes prior I couldn't see much.

    Did it disintegrate? Has enough gone into my body? Why does a doctor prescribe something to swallow for vomiting that'll obviously make you vomit?

    What is it? There are some pills meant for swallowing that are effective if you use them like a rectal suppository. Perhaps your doc call you in a script for rectal phenergan or tigan.

    After 25 minutes, the pill should have been absorbed.

    OMG you get your boobs in under 2 weeks!!! Thats come around sooooo fast! (-:

    Umm, I dont know about the antibiotic absorbtion rate - maybe can you google the type + absorbtion or something if you cant ask your Doc for a while? Whether something comes up is anyones guess?
    What is the antibiotic suposed to treat? Are you feeling any better at all, I hope so?!!!

    i agree I'm supprised doc hasn't given you an rx for phenergan at the least.

    antibiotic for vomiting? are you saying that it's supposed to stop the vomiting itself? or just kill the bug thats making you vomit?

    Yeah, I was really sick like this a few years ago, and as much as I didn't want it, I had to use suppositories. It was the only time I'd ever used any, but I was grateful for the relief because I had dry heaves and everything..
    You should definitely see if suppositories are an option, they help like you wouldn't believe.

    I've had phenergan... it doesn't do shit. I got the antibiotic for whooping cough which was also supposed to stop the vomiting. It was a general antibiotic but was mainly for the cough.

    I'll call the doctor again monday.

    And I'lll delete my ticker, since I postponed my surgery two months.

    When I had whooping cough, what really gave me some releif was to drink a few sips of warm water around the coughing bouts. I know it sounds simple but try it. Its what nurses use for children in 3rd world contries when they dont have the option of medication.
    The other thing I found soothing was to burn a bit of peppermint essential oil in an oil burner.

    I was taking an antibiotic for my kidney infection and it was making me vomit within 15 minutes of taking it. I was allergic to the antibiotic, and that's what was making me sick. I had to go back to the doctor to get a different kind, because I wasn't even keeping them down long enough to absorb into my body, and Phenergan (sp?) wasn't making me not puke.

    If phenergan does not work for you, there are others...tigan, zofran, anzemet.

    Phenergan is for the flu. I'm not taking it for coughing/vomiting with no sneezing or temp.

    Anyway I went to the hospital today.

    They gave me a new antibiotic.

    Phenergan is only for vomiting, as are the other drugs I mentioned. If you look them up in the PDR, you will find them in the section of antiemetics. It does nothing for coughing, fever, or sneezing.

    Well, a known side effect of phenergan is drowsiness, but it's primary use is nausea. Though, it has been known to be useful in migraines in those who are not narcotic addicted.
