Almost three weeks ago I began taking redotex with the hopes of loosing weigh along with exercise and changing my eating habits. So far lost 5 pounds (yay!) anyway I got sick last week and took Pentrexyl for a throat infection. Of course I stopped the Redotex for the past week. The last time I took Pentrexyl was four days ago. Is it safe to begin redotex again? I have sketchy feelings about having both the antibiotic still in my system and taking this crazy diet pill . Please help! How long does Pentrexyl last in the body? ## I decided to run an interaction check between each of the ingredients listed in Redotex and that of Pentrexyl. Based on my research, there aren't any drug interactions listed between the two medications. So in my honest opinion it should be safe to use them bot...

Hi, I think I have laryngitis. My ear/throat hurts. I'm currently talking sertraline. Is it safe to take a pentraxyl to rid the possible infection? ## Hello, Totoro! How are you? No, it is never a good idea to take an antibiotic, just because you think you might possibly have an infection. If you don't and take one, you create the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. It would be best to see your doctor and only take an antibiotic, if they confirm the presence of an infection. Then you also need to make sure to finish the full course of treatment, as prescribed. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have a bad toothache and it's making my head and ear hurt can I take pentrexyl ## Hello, Ray! How are you? I'm sorry about the tooth ache. Pentrexyl contains Ampicillin, which is an antibiotic, so it can be used to treat dental infections. The FDA classifies it as an antibiotic and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. However, you need to check with your dentist to make sure that its due to an infection, because taking it, if you don't have one could result in your developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. And, if you do have a dental infection, an antibiotic will not resolve whatever underlying issue caused the infection, such as a deep dental cary. That will still need to be corrected, or the infe...

Can it cure scalp condition? ## Hi Luis, Pentrexyl contains the active ingredient Ampicillin, which is an antibiotic that's used to treat a variety of bacterial infections. Depending on the cause of your scalp condition and whether there's an actual infection present, this medication may be beneficial. However you'd ultimately have to have your scalp examined first in order to be sure you aren't taking an antibiotic for no real reason. Have you seen a doctor about this? If so, what did s/he say?

sore throat ## May I drink alcohol and take pentrexyl ampicilina? ## Well this is not a drug approved for use in the US, but I am assuming from the word 'ampicilina' that it is an Ampicillin based antibiotic. So first, let me start by saying that it is NEVER a good idea to mix alcohol and drugs of any type. The alcohol can cause serious problems in conjunction with the drugs and it can also aggravate side effects. In some cases, it can also negate the effect of the drugs, or amplify the effects of the alcohol. In the case of Ampicillin alcohol can block the intended effects of the drug, so you do not get the needed dosage from your medication, which can lead to further complications of whatever condition you are taking the antibiotic for. In addition, alcohol also has a synergis...
