I posted in the Living Room about getting my wisdom teeth removed yesterday...

I told the surgeon that I thought all antibiotics would upset my stomach, and I was scared to take them - but now I'm really worried about infection - that might hurt worse!

Does anyone know an antibiotic that is the LEAST harmful to our stomaches that I could go on for 5 days?? My doctor is calling me this morning to see how everything is going! I'm in SO much pain and I don't want more pain in my stomach!

Poor Cara.
Anitbs and I have a bad history even pre IBS days.
I have taken a low dose of amoxicillin without very bad results just general yuckiness but no cramping. MAKE SURE YOU TAKE THEM ON A FULL STOMACH though.
Anti-inflammatories absolutely kill my tummy. I recommend phoning your pharmacy/drugstore or even explaining your sensitive stomach to your surgeon. I couldn't take the pain meds when I got my wisdom teeth out so I know how you feel...
take care

I just recommended the same kind in the Living Room. See my post there. Had no problem with it.

I think I'll try that one. I'm in a lot of pain right now so I need to go try and eat something and take the pain med....I'm so nervous because I don't want to be nausous again!

Flagyl is best tummy tolerated, but don't know if it is right for post-surgical recovery. You can always ask.

I just had my wisdom teeth out a few months ago and was put on antibiotics. I don't remember the name, but it didn't make me sick at all. I am taking the anitbiotic AMOXICILLIN right now for another infection and it is treating me just fine. I think you'll be fine with whatever your dentist suggests.
