I caught a bug last week, still recovering, flu-like, hot&cold sweats, week , lethargic. but now left with a pain in my mouth, around gums, is there an over the counter anti-biotic i can get for it? due to see hospital doc on nov 25 regarding the removal of an infected tooth.
thanx in avdance
While you are waiting for Sqad. I was at the pharmacy yesterday when another customer asked the same question as you.He was told all antibiotics have to be prescribed and they could not help.
piggy.....if there anything to see on your gums, if not, as i suspect, then antibiotics are not the answer.
Spain was easy as far as over the counter antibiotics, but recently they have tightened up.
Hit the Ibuprofen ( at least you can get the 600mg strength in Spain) and monitor the situation.
If you have ulcers on the gums then Corlan pellets will help.
sorry sqad, and other abers, but only saw this now, been busy working and saw the dentist for a clean & polish. Pain became unbearable, so after posting this, went to work, ate lunch, then found the pain unbearable, so went back to the dentist, and he recommended amoxicillan ratopharm. If its an infection, surely ibrofen wouldn´t help?
