Cefpodoxime for Bladder Infection Reviews
"That’s the third antibiotic I am taking for my bladder infection. My UTI symptoms reappeared on the third day with Cipro and 48 hours after taking a full course of Cefalexin. Urine culture came back negative after the first two antibiotics but UTI symptoms persisted. Nurse wrongly diagnosed me with Interstitial cystitis. Teledoctor fortunately prescribed me cefpodoxime. I am over the moon. No more symptoms and no side effects from cefpodoxime at all. I started to feel better after the first dose. Feeling great!"
"Just so no one goes through the same thing, affected my right side, maybe my liver. Caused headaches, stomach pain, etc. Was prescribed to take one in the morning and one in the afternoon and I can't even explain the pain and fear I'm going through. Plz be careful when taking these. I was on my fourth day with it."
Vantin (cefpodoxime) "I've had many urinary tract infections, and the normal medicines just quit working. I've been successfully treated with Vantin three times."
"I have used cefpodoxime twice but it takes more than 3 days to get symptomatic relief. I was taking 200mg every 12hours. It generally does not have any side effects on me."
