Does Protrin Intake Cause Diarrhea Like Side Effects?
Hi Doc
I am 20 weeks pregnant and taking this medicin for my Bladder infection which is called (Protrin). Since I have been taking them, side effects like nausee, vomiting, diaree and also some tiny red buttons on my face. I am wondering should I stop taking them, all I am worried is for my baby.
Thanks
