pill help !

My doctor prescribed me an antibiotic for an infection I have. The only thing is its my second day on then and I have to take them twice a day and they taste so horrible I'm left vomiting for 30 minutes and left weak after. Should I stop taking them ? Will it cause harm to the baby ? I don't know what to do , there awful !

I don't know exactly what they are. I eat in the morning before I take one and I take the other after dinner. I've tried drinking water , milk , brushing my teeth and its still there .

I hate taking pills so I went back and got the kids version of amoxicillin. It tastes way better!

You really should keep taking them. Try taking them with a citrus soda like ginger ale or 7up to cover up the taste. Infections are bad for pregnant women.

Is it a zpack? And are you eating before you take them? If that antibiotic is making you sick then your going to have to get a different one bc you still need to get rid of the infection. You need to call your doctors office and them. Bc sry him no one here can help you. Your doctor is going to have to prescribe subverting else if you can't take that.
