Suggest Treatment For Side Effects Of Flucloxacillin

I have been given flucloxacillin 500g to be taken for times a day for an infected bartholins cyst, I have been taking the tablets for three days and now my arms are hurting when I move them or try and pick something up its like a sharp pain and then a dull grinding ache could this be linked with the antibiotics, thanks

Hello,

The pain in your arm is one of the side effects of flucloxacillin and the pain that you are experiencing will go a few days after you stop taking flucloxacillin. So there is nothing to worry.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Prabhash Verma, General & Family Physician
