When does mupironcin become effective when using it?

I am guessing you are asking about Mupirocin. A topical antibiotic.\n\nThe half life is about 30 minutes. So i am guessing it should work pretty quickly.\nMake sure you use all of the ointment i.e. the full course.

yes, people can built a tolorence to any type of drug.  in fact, protonix should not be used beyond 16 weeks without taking a break. also, you should not use aspirin while on protonix, the aspirin will decrease that effects that protonix is suppose to do,

It is effective. However, it is only to supress the cough- not cure whatever is causing it. And, it should only be taken at night or when disrupting your day. Coughing is necessary to clear the lungs, and a normal body function.

I had it for over 6 months and I'm 25 years old.  I got it from Ampicillin and Gentamycin during labor.  I USED to post on www.cdiffsupport.com - there is a lot of info there that you may find helpful.  Just dont post questions that have been answered - the mods are psycho.  So search first so they dont jump all over you "CHECK THE FAQ" bla bla bla type answers.\n\nAnyway, I had profuse watery yellow diarrhea, rapid pulse, didnt feel quite right, and I lost weight.  The front line treatment is Flagyl that has horrible side effects that just add to the symptoms of C.diff.  If Flagyl fails, then Vancocin is prescribed - highly expensive stuff.  \n\nI finally got 'cured' by seeing an Infectious disease doctor.. My GI was clueless.\n\nI have kids and they never picked it up from me - sanitation, hand washing, and keeping things clean will help with infection control.

Try calling the fda. There are operators who might be able to help you.\n\nor visit their website: http://www.fda.gov\n\nYou are talking about Antibiotics......\nThere are other antibiotics that work slightly differently... like MAcrolides (aZithromycin, Erythromycin),

Mucinex.. 10 bux a bottle but works!

It'll take up to 2 weeks, but I've been on that before and it did nothing for me, so it all just depends on the person and if that medication is really right for you or not. I'd give it another week or so and dr.'s will tell you to give it a month...

Sounds like it. You may not develop the itch right away, but I think that's how it starts. Go to the doc and if it is, you'll know for any future outbreaks so at least then you'll know so you could buy the OTC stuff.

Mucinex-D over the counter.  It helps thin the mucous and decongests @ the same time.  Back when I was working, it was Rx only and the physicians I worked for Rx'd it all the time...and the patients raved about it!\nHope you feel better soon!

Most likely it hasn't been long enough for the potency to go down much. With all medications be aware that there is the chance that it will if you take it after the expiration date. After a full year has gone by they are no longer deemed safe to take because the chemical content can change while it has been sitting around, especially if it was stored improperly. In that case it can be sometimes harmful for the user. In the case of your dramamine specifically you are 85% likely that it will be as effective as you need it to be. Just wanted you to be aware of the risk.

It should say on the Mucinex bottle if you should not...but, to be safe...just call and ask the Pharmacist at your drug store. That is what I always do, and they always know the answer and are very nice.

it depends on the extent of your infection, (whether you have a resistant strain, for example), and also the dosing administered within those 6 days.

I just read an article about this. There are actually several different resitances that enterococcus becomes resistant to vancomycin. Protein's are shared between bacteria frequently, some of the proteins cause resistance to vancomycin. \n\n####\n\nVancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) were first reported in 1986, nearly 30 years after vancomycin was clinically introduced. The primary inciting factor was likely the use of orally administered vancomycin for treating antibiotic-associated diarrhea in hospitals. Vancomycin resistance is conferred by one of two functionally similar operons, VanA or VanB (Figure) (24). The VanA and VanB operons are highly sophisticated resistance determinants, which suggests that they evolved in other species and were acquired by enterococci. The difference in the guanine-cytosine (G-C) content of the genes of the VanB operon (roughly 50% G-C) (25) in comparison to typical enterococcal genes (35% to 40% G-C) (3) is compelling evidence for this acquisition. The conditions that would favor substantial colonization by naturally glycopeptide-resistant species (probably streptomycetes) and persistence of enterococci include high vancomycin concentrations in the gastrointestinal tract. Substantially high levels of glycopeptides in the gastrointestinal tract are achievable by oral administration, since these agents are not absorbed, resulting in fecal vancomycin concentrations high enough to favor colonization with vancomycin-resistant streptomycetes, but not high enough to kill the notably tolerant enterococcus. Hence, it is reasonable to presume that oral administration of glycopeptides to humans was a major factor in the emergence of vancomycin resistance in enterococci. The European VRE outbreak's apparent origin in animals (who were fed oral glycopeptides as growth promoters) further supports this scenario

If you have a problem with your tooth, it can very easily manifest itself as a headache, especially behind/around your eyes.  You should call the dentist and have the date moved up/closer so you can get it taken care of immediately.  A person should only be on antibiotics for 7 to 14 days.  After that, the bacteria become resistant to the medication, and this could very well be what has happened.  The bacteria that caused the abscess have most likely become resistant and are now migrating to other parts of you body.  Have the date moved closer, and also have your dentist put you on a more potent antibiotic.
