Brief Answer:
Do you have any idea about the name of antibiotic

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns.

The interaction between two medications/substance varies from case to case but mostly it depends on the nature of molecule. However I like to ensure you that most of modern antibiotics are devoid of any interaction with methamphetamine.

I request you to name the antibiotic planned for your daughter so I can answer you specifically.

I look forward to assist you further.
Thanks and regards.
