Brief Answer:
What interactions did you have?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this interaction that you had. Can you please report the symptoms to me? Given your disease condition, there is really no reason sticking to a drug that makes you sicker. This can be easily changed to Amoxiclav and spare you all the side effects. Ask your doctor to prescribe another medication such as amoxicillin which would be free of these side effects. For now, I suggest you stop this medication until you hear from your doctor.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
