Infection damn it!

jetty said:
i'm considering ordering some antibiotics just to have "in case". Last time my skin infection was cleared up with Levaquin 500mg/ED for 5 days. I hear allot of peeps on here talking about Cephalexin (not sure how to spell it) and was curious to know what you guys suggest.


Research what kinds to get though. Amoxycillin and regular old every day anti biotics will not really work and if you do have MRSA then it will only make it worse.

I do not know what you should stock up on and I am no doctor BUT I was prescribed Clindamycin. Bruce410 was prescribed cephalexin aka Keflex (Gen Brnd) when he had one.

Walmart bro! I had it in 5 minutes. If I were to wait for the canucks I might be dead before I got it! kidding. I love our brother country too, just not as much as the U.S.!
 
For over 10 yrs now Pet Smart has been my only source of Antibiotics without an RX. Fish meds are the exact same thing as human grade-they are imperfect and broken pills re-tabbed and packaged for pet use-so no FDA approval is needed and they cost about 70% less than RX ones. Amoxycillin, Cephlexin, Pennicillin-all are readily available in the aquarium section of most pet stores. Of course they are labled "not for human use" but then again, so does a bottle of Equipoise. And don't expect your Dr to give you the green light on this. Every year Drs receive $$$ kickbacks from RX cos for pushing their products. Imagine how much $$$ the RX industry would lose if everybody bought pet meds instead of human grade? Last time I checked 1 500 mg Amoxycillin tab costed about $2.00 $2.50. The same 500 mg pills cost $4.00 for 8 of them for the fish tabs making them about .50 each. And before anyone accuses me of bullshitting, I'm not. I'm serious.

I know you are telling the truth! I looked into that after Taoiron mentioned it once. I am wondering though how you can be sure it is still 500 mg in a cap is it because it dissipates throughout the water because if I need 500mg it just seems that amount could kill a fish! but I believe you!

My guess is the fish doesn't assimilate all 500 mgs through it's gills as some must get lost in the aquarium filter?

I dunno fersure cuz my 37 lb female pit had a lesion on her nose and the Dr prescribed her 500 mgs of cephalexin 3x/day-which is the same dose a 200lb human would use to fight infection.

Obviously exessive amounts of anti b's aren't that toxic in animals-or certain ones anyway?

And FYI-I 1st heard of using pet meds from a guy that was in Desert Storm. Apparently the army was having a tough time getting human grade anti-b's so they ordered anti-b fish meds for the troops cuz they were easier/cheaper to get.

Could be the gear, could be the way I transferred it to the vial. I am not sure but none-the-less its painful whether it gets infected or not so I am pretty much done with it whether it were me or not.

Stealth is painless to me and I have also done a lot of injects using it with no infections or abcesses so far. Does all gear hurt you or is stealth the only one? just asking because I'm no steroid guru but I consider stealth to be pretty much painless.
