Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 My husband is vegetarian and My son and I, we are pretty much vegan. Unfortunately three weeks ago my husband got this horrible cough and the doctor prescribed him an antibiotic: Amoxicillin. My husband decided to take it because the cough help his herniated disk to get worse to the point of getting close to having a surgery (He took some medicine for the inflamation of the nerve) . Anyway after almost 7 days of taking the antibiotic he developed this severe allergic reaction (All his mouth swolen and the itching and redness) for the last 6 days he has not been sleeping well because of the iitching. His doctor prescribed steroids to get over the reaction. He is getting a little better now. Question: Could you please help me with any information about how to help my husband to cleanse his system after he finishes taking the steroid? Natural ways? Something that I can give to him? . Please help me. Thanks in advance Rebeca My Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Oh I am sorry to hear of the bad reaction to amoxcicillin! I have a penecillin allergy, but I never took more than one dose before feeling like I had something stuck in my throat. A good friend had the itchiness and hives/rash on his hands and feet. I think he was told to take benedryl for the itching, you should ask your Dr. Or see if there is something else for easing the itchiness. As for detox, yogurt with live active cultures will help restore the natural flora in the bowels. There is also acidophilis he could take that does the same thing -found in the health food store. Hope this helps Missie Sent from my G1 phone! On Dec 17, 2008 8:07 PM, " Rebeca Llasaca " <rllasaca wrote: My husband is vegetarian and My son and I, we are pretty much vegan.
