Does Teva 3147 Red Pill Cause Seizure?
I take care of an aged lady who has heart issues and is under hospice.....she has a wound on her right leg which seems to be infected..on Thursday las week...she was put on teva 3147 red pill.....on Monday after using it for 3days she had a seizure....I was scared to death......I only concluded that the only new thing I knew of that could have caused this s the new med and had to stop using it.....

Hi,
Teva 3147 is an antibiotic and a seizure due to this would be unusual. However, it is more likely that the seizure could be due to the underlying infection.
I suggest she sees a doctor to advise on further treatment as she will need the infection treated.
