Can Augmentin Cause Cough And Swollen Lymph Nodes With Constipation?
i am feeling pretty bad. i took agmentin a few weeks ago for drainage, cough, mucus, She also told me my lypnods where a little swollen i took it for about 6 days and had to stop because i got constipated. i started back on it yesterday because i still was having chills and felt like i had something in my throat i get dizzy and just feel pretty yucky. no fever. i am on seizure meds which i have taken for 10 years with no problems. i think i have alot of anxiety i cannot decide if i need to go back to doctor or just finish them up and see if that takes care of the problem i figured i may just have not gotten rid of the infection it has been hard to get through the days feeling like this i also, wondered if i was low in something. the side affects to this antibiotic is not even constaption my cough has eased up and i only take one spoonful of tussin at night. should i just finish up the antibiotics and see if i then feel better.
Augmentin is an antibiotic and was prescribed for you because your doctor diagnosed a bacterial infection in you. The usual side effect with Augmentin is diarrhea and it is unusual for it to cause constipation. Some cough syrups especially the ones containing codeine can cause constipation.
