What Causes Brown And Pink Vaginal Discharge After Taking Ceftin?

Hello I was on an antibiotic known as ceftin for almost 3 weeks due to a sinus infection. I was sexually active right after I stopped taking it and now have noticed a brown and pinkish discharge as well as mild cramping. Is this a normal side effect of this antibiotic or is there something I need to be worried about?

Hi,

Cefuroxim is a cefalosporin antibiotic. It is not known to affect the menstrual cycle neither to give spotting. I think you may be suffering a hormone disbalance in this moment or are at the beginning of menstrual cycle.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka,
