Antibiotics While On?

[balancefighter]

Started my cutting cycle about a week and a half ago. Tren, katanadrol and helladrol. It seems like I have been fighting a cold or allergies since I started. I thought that I had it beat but I guess not. My throat seems like its just about swollen shut and doesn't seem like it is getting any better. I made a doctors appointment tomorrow. My question is what do I do if they give me antibiotics which I am pretty sure they will. Is it ok to take while I am still on? I really don't want to cut the cycle short. I usually recover from colds and stuff pretty quick but this one is being stubborn. Yesterday was my off day in the gym and I had to take off today. So luckily I haven't feel to far behind there. Thanks for the help bros

some will say keep the cycle going. i respectfully disagree. i would halt everything right now. get better.. then resume the cycle. you are only a week in. don't waste your cycle being home sick.. you aren't gonna be able to workout being that sick anyway. docs always give out some kind of drugs so its a good bet you will get anti-biotics.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^GOOD ADVICE RIGHT THERE.

There shouldnt be any interaction between the aas and anti biotics BUT there is no point in cycling when you are not at your best.
i learned this the hard way.

I bet you have strep. Seems to be going around a lot lately. You will get an antiobiotic for sure.

Get better first then hit it hard!

depending the type of antibitoic you are given the side effects could be tendon rupture. dont lift heavy

Ive even been told by some respected folks that antibiotics can render ORAL AAS less effective.

ok so i have been on for over 8 weeks now and on sunday woke up feeling sick. i have now been sick for 5 days with chest congestion and a sore throat. On monday i started tren and masteron. I have 7 more weeks left of my cycle and have been doing everything to avoid going to the dr.s but am cosidering as this cold has kept me outta the gym for two this week already. I really cannot afford to quite this cycle due to a cold. Are anti-biotics really that harmful to a cycle??

anti-biotics won't work as well when taken with other drugs, minerals, supplements.. I know that. if you read the literature that comes with anti-biotics it says it right on there.

also if you are sick you have no business going to the gym and spreading what you have to others.. and being exposed to more stuff while your immune system is in overload.

Great point

Contraindications, antibiotics are hard on the liver, you're not going to get the best results if sick, and antibiotics don't even do anything against a cold, so it's all bad.

Turns out it was Strep. I was given amoxicillan and methylprednisolone. I am already feeling a TON better. so I decided to continue it. So far I have only missed two workouts because one of them was my off day. I think I will be able to get back in the gym tomorrow. Thanks for the advice guys.

I wouldn't. Androgenic drugs suppress immune response, and Tren is androgenic as hell. It's certainly possible that you became susceptible in the first place because of a sudden drop in immune response. AAS like anavar, which is a weak androgen, actually allow immune response to improve because it does not replace the androgenic effect of the natural T production it's suppressing.

Antibiotic therapy works because it eradicates perhaps 90% of the bacterial infection causing the symptoms. They do not rupture all of the infection, ever. No abx is that effective. Antibiotic therapy depends on a health immune response to "mop up" the remaining 10% or so of the remaining infection. If your immune system is suppressed that won't happen. The infection will linger, and can even begin to multiple enough to cause symptoms again.

^^ and it can turn into something more serious like bronchitis which can take 2 months to go away. once that bacteria gets into your chest its over. strep can be caused by allergens, a virus, or bacteria. and it can become acute. so don't screw around with it

happened to me.. was at the end of a cycle. ran an anti-biotic and was miserable for 2 months. this happened last year
