nebcin is the brand name and tobramycin is the generic name, its a very strong antibiotic, it has some pretty bad side effects, I'm surprised that you think its for urinary tract infections...because Nebcin can cause hearing loss and kidney failure, doctors hardly even prescribe it anymore

I'm a pharmacy tech...Mylan is a drug manufacturer.  Nitrofurantion is the generic equivalient for Macrobid or Macrodantin.  They are usually prescribed for UTIs.  Don't be afraid to take it...you got the right thing.  Mylan is the drug company that manufactured the nitrofurantoin.

Diflucan ~ now this is by prescription, wherein Vagisil is for the itching more than anything...also "Australian tea tree oil" in a tepid bath ..now i know many who have tried this,....but remember it is what i have been told...that as far as homeopathy is the ticket for what i know....i would call your physician...i have NEVER had a doctor make me come in for the Diflucan...which is often onset by antibiotics..in fact often when i have had antibiotics, i get the RX for diflucan at the same time...tho it isn't always needed....there..that is what i know..and i may not have your perfect answer...but...that is the best i can do...also look up Edgar Cayce's clinic on line ...the place i went to was in Arizona when i lived there and there are elixirs to douche with  that are clean, fresh and they are extremely healing,...i had forgotten that one ~ i wish you the best! Thank You.....hope it gets better soon.....until yo have the yeast part of the bacterial infection under control use vagisil and panty liners...for vagisil is a topical and nothing to insert...what it does is numb the intchy part of yor perineum...be well....and oh i loathe these things too! take care....

I used Nitrix for 3 months. It definately improved my vascularity and gave me great pumps in the gym. It helped me over my last plateau, I will more than likely use it again next time I need that little something extra to get me to the next level. As far as using it on a regular basis ..... its a bit pricey but if you do make sure you cycle off it for a month every 3 months.\n\nGlen

He's probably on it for bed-wetting.  It is an antidepressant, but it's not usually used for that purpose anymore as other drugs have since been developed that are more effective... but it is still used for bedwetting.   Apparently it causes the smooth muscle wall of the bladder to relax so that it can stretch to hold more urine without the need to urinate being as intense.  I took it for bedwetting when I was that age also, it's not 100% perfect, but it does help... although it isn't a cure, it just helps you get through the night when you take it, until your bladder grows enough to keep from wetting the bed on its own.\n\n   Good luck, I hope your nephew is able to grow out of it soon!

Don't do it.  I took the welbutrin for 1 week, I started hearing voices, I couldn't sleep, I had horrible stomach pains, vomiting and I only stopped smoking because my stomach hurt so bad.  Try cold-turkey it works the best.  If you do wind up taking the welbutrin stop taking it if you experience any side effects, it is a bad drug for some people.\n\nI don't want to scare you, but I think I should've asked before I took it-- so here, I found this post on line:\n\nI took Welbutrin for 12 days. I started having severe kidney pain with blood in my urine. After a few days I had severe/Exruciating pain in my whole body, Back, side, chest, Arms, It felt like every organ in my body was going to explode. I Also had some very disturbing sensations running through my whole body. Heart palpitations, shortness of breath. I can't begin to tell you how much pain and anxiety i was experiencing. I went to numerous different Emergency rooms and doctors in a 3 week period, and every one of them couldn't find anything wrong with me. Actually I believe they all thought I was crazy. They run all sorts of blood tests and xrays and found nothing. Finally a doc said it is possible that it was a toxic effect from the Welbutrin. I know that it has something to do with Welbutrin, I'm not sure what it was doing to me, but It almost killed me. Today, almost 5 weeks after stopping the drug, I am still not well. I still have pain in my back and arms and some weird and VERY disturbing sensations that come and go (I believe it is nerve damage) and suffer from constant dizziness and fatigue. I will see a neurologist in 2 weeks. I hope this is something that can be treated. If not my life is totally ruined! I have never been sick in my life, and have always been very active. Now I can't even work around my house without getting totally exhausted. PLEASE be careful taking this drug! It has altered my life in a way that you could never imagine! I wanted to quit smoking so bad that I ignored the side effects I experienced the very first time I took it. I will live to regret that for the rest of my life.

when i first started having sex i got a couple too.  be sure to wash up quickly and very well.  if you still get one and dont want to keep using antibiotics, try something called AZO Standard. this helps with the pain and discomfort while you drink enough water to clean your bladder out.  if you get a really bad one and do go on antibiotics, the AZO is still helpful before the antibiotics kick in.

Since you are a  teenager it may be hormones.\nAcne is also link to bacterial infections.  An antibiotic will help majorly.\n\n\nProactiv worked for me as far as OTC goes. \nDifferingel works wonders but you need a prescription.

Cure? .. well maybe not, but I drink this horrible tasting herb, called Uva Ursi. You can buy it in tea form at Whole Foods or hopefully any natural grocery store. Also try setting a ridiculous goal for yourself - like drinking a big glass of water on the hour, every hour. Yeah, having to pee all the time sucks - but so do infections! Did you tell your doctor that the anitbiotics weren't working? You might have a resistant strain of something, maybe they can just prescribe something different for you, without you having to actually go back to their office. \nGood luck....

Quit using antibacterial and deoderant soap. My husband kept having trouble with tinea which is a skin fungus that loves the skin on the back. It kept coming back year after year. He got a new dermatologist. This new fellow told him to switch to Dove brand soap which is real soap but no antibiotic action. The tinea went away in just a few weeks and it has never come back in the three years since he switched. Plus, his skin has become baby soft - it feels great to stroke his arms. LOL. The theory as best I understand is that bacteria and fungus compete/attack each other. Antibacterial soap tips the balance in favor of the fungus.\n\nAnother thing that we have found to be helpful with healing any type of skin damage is vitamin E oil. Just break open a vitamin E gel capsule and spread it on the injured skin. Cover with a bandage for a while because the oil is sticky and messy.

A urine sample first of all.  Then the Dr may give antibiotics if it is an infection of the bladder, kidneys or unrinary tract.\n\nIf it is not just an infection, it may be kidney stones being passed, although that would be more painful than just burning.\n\nOver the counter help is available such as "ural".  Sometimes drinking lots of pure cranberry juice can help, but see the Dr first.

Most important is to get your DM controlled\n\ntreatments include:  \n- gabapentin (off-label, works for some not all, only way to know if it works for you is to give it a try.  Brand Name is Neurontin)\n- Lyrica: a new-ish controlled substance similar to gabapentin\n- Cymbalta, an SSRI with approval by the FDA for use for diabetic peripehreal neuropathic pain.  In my practice experience (in an endocrinology office) about 80% or more of the patients I have prescribed Cymbalta for have had some benefit, many significantly\n- amitriptyline, another old, off-label use.  usually given at bedtime to help relieve nighttime pain that interferes with sleep (drowsiness!)\n- percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (PENS), no experience with,  look it up\n- see a neurologist to determine if that is what the condition is; might be something else.  if it is DPN, neurologist can help with treatment.\n\nHope this helps!

It is an antibiotic. It could be used if you have an infection.

I really hope that you are not serious. Go back to the doc and have him place your son on a generic antibiotic much cheaper.

Many people believe that bladder infections are caused by poor hygiene in that region. This is untrue! It is much more common in women due to the fact that our urethra is much shorter. She should try drinking cranberry juice and a topical vaginal cream containing estrogen. Both of these things have been proven to help reduce the incidence of reccurent cystitis (your grandma's bladder infections). Acupuncture is also shown to help. Since they're reccurrent, it could be an indication of a more serious problem (a sickle-cell disease or an anatomical malformation). Has your grandmother been in the hospital using urinary catheters - those things can lead to infection. In any case, it sounds like this will need further investigation - probably ultrasounds of the kidneys and X-rays of the urological system. There will most likely be treatment available. Good luck!
