Omeprazole 2017-07-04 Person 3 5 0

I was prescribed this antibiotic post-operatively as a result of 'widespread infection' around the site of the operation, hence it being a necessary preventive measure, which I understood. The dosage was for one tablet of 400mg three times a day for 7 days and though the known gastric side effects were mild, I was left feeling very drained and promptly fell victim to an obstinate Urinary Tract Infection, necessitating 2 further courses of the relevant antibiotic (Nitrofurantoin)
