Cefuroxime for Bladder Infection Reviews

Ceftin (cefuroxime) "I have painful bladder syndrome and was having many infections. I have been using Ceftin 250 mg once a day for a year and have had no infections since the use of this medicine has been added to my routine."


Ceftin (cefuroxime) "I have been on Cefuroxime 250 mg tabs (Generic for Ceftin) for 3 months, and my bladder infection has not improved. In fact, my urine is more bloody and continues getting worse. I have told my Dr. and requested a different, hopefully more effective, antibiotic, but she keeps pushing this one. I am about to change doctors if she does not change it or my condition worsens more."


Ceftin (cefuroxime) "I took cefuroxime , a high dose for a bacterial bladder infection. I go t a massive side effect of setting my butt on fire. It still burns and I had to take an antifungal to stop it, which just made it burn less. I'm still using a steroid powder. But I still burn & I'm in a wheelchair."


"When I was 17 I took ceftin for a bladder infection and had a major allergic reaction round red circles and floating blurred vision. Yesterday I went to emergency for staph on my arm gave me cephalexin same antibiotic category as ceftin they knowingly gave this to me heart racing looks like it’s already helping my arm..I’m disappointed in our medical people"


Ceftin (cefuroxime) "This is harder on the stomach and I miss my usual med for this but it seems to have lessened the urgency. I had no burning but I do have the low backache and pressure."
