What Is The Treatment For Ear Infection?
I have a serious ear infection with bright green discharge. I started a z-pak last night, and had a few alcoholic beverages last night. My ear is as bad, if not worse today. Should the antibiotics have started working? Did drinking alcohol cancel the effects of the antibiotics?
