What Causes Abdominal Bloating And Chest Congestion After Taking Augmentin?
I have asthma. In October, I took Augmentin for a blocked salivary gland. For the past 4 weeks, I have had excessive bloating along with congestion (head and chest) the head/chest congestion has ended. The bloating and burping appears to have caused some gastric reflux that exacerbated my asthma way beyond the normal asymptomatic/mild asthma. Even with Proair and Serevent, I continue to experience SOB. In the past day, I have used antacid and Benadryl as suggested by RN. I ve had some on/off pain in upper right quadrant of abdomen along ribs about 4 from xyphoid.
it is an enhanced antibiotic of gentamycin. if taken in empty stomach it can cause such problem. take with vitbcomplex and probiotic. with gastric refluxcan cause respiratory problem because of aspirated infected material. take antacid and unienzyme with bland diet.
