Follow instructions

By Anonymous - 30/10/2009 15:36 - United States

Today, I found out that when they put "Take with food" on the side of antibiotics, what they really mean is "Take with food because this stuff is gonna liquefy everything in your G.I. tract, and make you have to run out of the middle of calculus for the worst diarrhea ever." FML

Don't blame the anitbiotic. Calculus can give you the *****. Especially if you have a bad teacher.

My Geodon medication also says "Take With Food," but sometimes I took it straight, and nothing happened to me. No behavioral changes happen to me either. I think Geodon amounts to nothing more than a sugar pill. FML ------------------ www.BigYesBomb.com

Umm... I strongly disagree. It all depends on the med. You should KNOW what you are taking, and what it does, and possible side effects.

The thing is he didn't KNOW what he was taking. If he knew what he was taking, chances are he would've eating food with it to avoid such a situation. If he thought "I'll be fine" after following the directions for the last coupld of days of taking the medication, then that's a FML. If he thought "pfft, I'll be fine" on his first dose, he's an idiot for making assumptions about what the medicine would do to him.

The only times you get a reaction like that, from what I can tell, are if you are allergic or if you get C. Diff from the antibiotics. Usually if a patient is on antibiotics and starts having diarrhea, they immediately check for C. Diff. You may want to go see a doctor IF this is true.

uh. no? antibiotics clean out your system and often make you feel nauseous or give you diarrhea- it's in the side effects

It's not necessarily C. diff. You can get loose stools simply from killing the normal flora. C. diff doesn't automatically take over every time this happens. If it's like a foul, greenish diarrhea, then it's probably C. diff.

at least you made it out of class in time!! and i guess you (& anyone who read this one) will probably ALWAYS follow directions on medication, lol. which you should do anyway.... (unless it says "don't drink", where's the fun in that?)

Don't you mean "Liquify" instead of "Liquefy"? Oh, and YDI...they wouldn't put that stuff on the side of the bottle if they didn't want you to do it.

Actually according to Merriam Webster and the Oxford dictionary you can say either, liquify or liquefy
