Hi,
Nausea, vomiting, abdominal bloating, allergic rashes can occur commonly with flucloxacillin and other penicillin derivative drugs. You can stop the drug and use alternative drugs like erythromycin if it is effective for your infection.Visit your physician for further management.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
