Question : I am currently taking augmentin for bronchitis. I eat before taking it and I still vomit. I also take sprinolactone, progesterone, celexa,hormone patch. Do you think it could be a drug interaction?

Brief Answer:
Yes your vomiting could be a drug intolerance to Augmentin

Detailed Answer:
Welcome to HCM. Unfortunately about 2% of the population will have vomiting as an adverse effect of Augmentin. You can ask for an anti-emetic medication to take before the Augmentin or ask for a totally different medication from your doctor. I hope that this helps you out, good luck and thank you for your question.
