okay...this is TMI but I really need some advice. looking for ASAP answers...
I have bacterial vaginutis and was givin metronidizale 500mg to take 2x daily for 7 days. it is "caution recommended" for breastfeeding. pharmacist said if I do take it - look for diarrhea or oral thrush in little. I was supposed to be on this medication back when I had the stomach flu. anyways...now this infection seems to be getting worse and its more of a pain/ irritation.
my friend gave me the cream version of the medication called clindamycin phosphate vaginal cream. it doesnt expire until April 30 2019. ahe just got it in november but she didnt use it cause she used the pills instead.
I have called the Dr. ive talked to two pharmacists. the dr wasnt in the office and hasnt called me back. (I called last week).
how bad is oral thrush ??? also, (ill be calling pharmacy again this morning when they open) my son sleeps for about 11- to 1/2 hrs at night...could I take both of the 2 pills at once at night when he goes to sleep so it can be out of my system by the time he nurses in the morning???
thanks...

@morgan.k I have the cream but it wasnt prescribed to me. so that's my only issue with that.. and yeah I dont have an issue with swallowing tablets thankfully. 😥😥 this is horrible.
@morgan.k it IS early for sure. but I havent started the medicine yet so it could be now that the irritation or whatever since I havent treated it... probably why..
I'm also seeing a little bit of blood? like watered down bloody spots when I went to the bathroom this morning which is weird... I'm on depo and never bleed... soooo this is just weird all around
@morgan.k I guess I might as well take it... 😥😥 it was only the odor for me and the funky discharge. I JUST got this irritation last night. I was supposed to begin taking this pill Dec 9...thats when i got it. and with christmas and all the holiday family crap..its been hard to get ahold of the dr in the meanwhile.
I have horrid anxiety and I'm always cautious of what I take while breastfeeding. so I'm furious and skeptical about this
@morgan.k yikes. this is my first time and my son is hardly sick. ive also never had to deal with thrush so I dont know how to help it besides tylenol. I mean I am debating on taking the pills now since its begun to irritate and its nonstop and my dr wont answer. but like I said..my friend gave me her cream that was prescribed to her but she never used it or opened it.and I can take the cream easily... for why dr didnt give me that instead I have no idea. but she told me i could breastfeed with it...😥😥
@morgan.k my son has never had oral thrush. and im worried for that. the pharamcist said its a low dosage but I don't trust it. and again...the dr isnt calling back. she is only at the office on Monday's and she had that day off.. I'm really nervous about taking this medication with my son and I'm not going to stop nursing. and I dont pump - he doesnt take the bottle.
@morgan.k not reallt besides a pharmacist. my actual dr - I havent even met yet. and the dr I went to see is where I get my birth control.
