Noflux Dangers?

Updated

I have spent 6 weeks in Vietnam, 1 week Cambodia and the last week in Bali. I did not do a good job of avoiding vegetables and salads, and possibly some bad ice cubes. I stayed in rural places. I have these scrapes that tore my skin in these places: skull, above ankle, wrist top, and below the lip 1/2inch. These cuts are About 1/4 to 1/3" diameter, produce puss and have refused to heal. Also have a cold sore on lip for a week.I am 60 yrs old. Yesterday I went to dr here in Saigon, just returned Vietnam, and was prescribed NOFLUX, TELFAST HD 180, AUGMENTEN AND ACYCLOVIR. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND DECIDED NOT TO TAKE THE FIRST TWO DRUGS LISTED. A thorough cleaning and Povidine and the last two drugs have dramatically improved the look and no mo more puss after 24 hours. Am I making the right decision to avoid the NOFLUX and TELFAST, figuring if the AUGMENTIN AND ACYCLOVIR DO NOT WORK I WILL TRY THE OTHER TWO. I read that NOFLUX CAN CAUSE ACUTE RENAL FAILURE AND IS 2ndarily used to treat viral infections and TELFAST DID NOT SEEM TO ADDRESS MY SYMPTOMS. ALSO, I THINK I READ TELFAST IS NOT FDA APPROVED. I don't like to the drugs, but I do not like not following the dr. They did 2 liver tests and all was negative. My reading suggests staph, but heck, I m no doctor. I think I read staph s acute rial which AUGMENTIN 1G addresses. I have had some pretty explosive total watery diaheria since taking the first doses, had mild diaheria before, and have soso gluten intolerance IBS. I took IMODIUM which turned the Diaheria into more of what I am accustomed to. No other symptoms.
