Cefprozil for Tonsillitis/Pharyngitis Reviews

Cefzil (cefprozil) "It was prescribed to treat a bad sore throat. It didn't help. After taking it not only did the sore throat remain, but I developed vaginitis and diarrhea that took me long to cure. Be careful if your immune system is sensitive to antibiotics and make sure you also take an effective probiotic while on this."

Cefzil (cefprozil) "It helped me clear sore throat / pharyngitis which I had after COVID and was not going away for a week. I felt better 1 - 2 hours after I took the first dose, but the sore throat was coming back in between each dose, but less and less painful / dry. In specs of Cefzil online, you can find that the peak concentration in your blood is around 2 hours after taking the dose, so that explains why I felt better after each dose and worse before taking each dose. It took 4 days in total to clear the infection for me, but I took it for 7 days in total to be 100% sure it went away. I felt abdominal cramps / mild stomach pain after each dose and sometimes nauseous if I did not eat anything right after the pill, but after 30 - 50 minutes, the nausea went away. If I ate something, I felt only mild stomach pain, but no nausea, so I recommend eating after the pill, not before. Overall, a good experience but slower recovery than I remembered from other pills like penicillin and amoxicillin."

"This medicine really helped, thanks Dr.K."
