Pills?

I had my gastric bypass a little over a month ago now. I have a sinus infection and my doctor put me on antibiotics. I cut the antibiotic in half and waited a few minutes in between taking halves. I got sick. Every since I took those two halves of pills, it has been hard to eat anything. I called my doctor and got him to write me a script for liquid antibiotics. This has been one miserable day!

Hope you get some relief soon. Is there any particular reason why you cut your pill?

I never cut or crush any prescription med unless a pharmacist tells me it's OK.

Susan be careful with the liquid depending on the sugar content you may find yourself dumping.

BTW, I see you are in La. and used Dr. Chung. I live in SW La. also.

At So Blessed, it was a HUGE antibiotic and I knew it would never fit down, so I cut it. It had a line where it could be cut, so I did but it still got stuck. At CajunGirl, you are the first person I have ran across from LA on the boards! Nice to meet somebody who lives in the same state. I think Dr. Chung is the best! He did a wonderful job on my RNY

Hope you are feeling better and the liquid does the trick!
