"Diagnosed with bronchial pneumonia two days ago. Had a fever of 102 at that point. Within two days, I don't have a fever. I am beginning to cough up the infection where I struggled before. I have to be open and add that I was also given prednisone to take. Between the two, at the end of the second day, I am beginning to feel better. Still a ways off, but I feel a difference."

"I always get bronchitis in February. Last February was no exception, but it actually went into pneumonia very quickly. Probably had something to do with the fact I was moving that week... Worked too hard and got no rest. Had no choice, went to urgent care, and as I said, I get bronchitis every year. Always take Z-pack, good cough syrup, and an atomizer and rest and get well. This time they gave me Augmentin, 875 mg. twice a day for 10 days and steroid round and cough medication. Long story short, ended up in ER with jaundice and weakness that was indescribable. Spent a week in the hospital pushing fluids as this was a rare reaction to the Augmentin. Very scary drug. Tested me for everything. The doctor was convinced that it was a reaction to the Augmentin."

"I had deep bronchitis or pneumonia. Took the medication from an online doctor. Showed great results right away for a week. (Prescription: 2 tablets twice a day for 2 weeks). So I decided to go out for just an hour to the library, and then I got chills followed by a high fever, so I continued to take the medication, but it did not work, so the doctor suggested a 6-pack of Azithromycin. I don't see much improvement in my fever by the 2nd day. Taking these two medications now, as my doctor wants me to complete it!"

"I caught a case of syphilis that left me very miserable for over 2 weeks. I was on a Z-pack, and those never seem to help. Then I was given doxycycline, and that seemed to help a little but didn't quite do the trick. Then I was given this, and so far, it's helping."

"It effectively put me in the hospital with C. diff a month after. Could have died. Not happy with this drug, as it killed every bacteria and the good bacteria too."
