kamon laa..common cold need no antibiotic..tonsilitis also doctor shouldnt give 3rd generation cephalosporin for ? viral tonsilitis? all money masuk longkanglah virus gelak je dgn cefipime pown
bagi amox atau paling kuat awal2 cephalexin seems fairlah
Malaysian mentality -sikit2 nak antibiotik..bapak aku dokter dari kecik aku demam tiap2 bulan pun aku tak amek antibiotik..3-5 days settle..skang aku dokter kerajaan antibiotik free pun aku x amek..
200+ for tonsilitis is simply atrocious..go report MMA
pehal bagus sangat dokter tu pon tonsilitis bukak mulut suluh je.. bukannye dia ada mata bionik scan culture+sensitivity terus tau bagi ubat pe.
This is very true confession. 1st time already whack you with powerful antibiotic for such minor sickness when you can still post in forum.
It's not going to be good for the patient in a long run because this will just spoil your immunity towards antobiotics treatment from now on. The next subsequent time you get sick it'll just get worser.
A good doctor will try to avoid strong antibiotic treatment for you unless necessary, but in our case a tonsilitis infection is compulsory.
In future try to avoid strong antibiotics if possible but the only thig you need to bare with is slower recovery. If you can build up your immunity without antibiotics, you'll slowly get less sick this bad after that.
