Could Uncomfortable Feeling Still Be A Reaction To The Antibiotic?
My nearly 1-year-old daughter has been clenching her buttocks and crying, mostly in the middle of the night. She had been on Augmentin until yesterday for a suspected UTI, but she does not in fact have a UTI. Something is making her very uncomfortable. Could it still be a reaction to the antibiotic even though she s been off it for more than 24 hours? She was fine all day today until her afternoon nap.

Hi.... rather than antibiotic, I feel this uncomfortable feeling which your kid is having in the perianal region seems to be due to a worm infestation. I suggest you use Albendazole in the dose of 200 milligrams one today and another after 10 days. If this is prescription drug in your country, then you will require a doctor's prescription for this.
