What Causes Left-sided Pressure And Pain On The Face While On Clarithromycin?
I ve been taking clarithromycin for 3 days for my left side of my face because i ve been having pressure and pain. The pressure and pain has been mostly around my left eye and eye. Today the 3rd day of taking these meds I woke up with my left feeling dry and with pain, I also had a little bit of blurry vision. Should I stop taking these meds and just go to the ER?
As per your history is concerned you are taking medication Clarithromycin for 3 days.It is an antibiotics used for various infection.So no reaction happens with this drug so far and it is a safe drug.So compleate the course of the drug first 500mg 2 times a day upto 7 days. Your eye pain and blurry vision may be due to some other causes like GLUCOMA ,so need a physical exam thoroughly and check your sugar level also.
