This “Dr. Bones” article is the one I used to make a decision about antibiotics some months ago. For me, I’m allergic for sure to penicillin, my whole body was covered with very itchy bumps and I was told never to take it again and it would be even worse. I had to make a paste of baking soda and water and paste myself every night and the paste would break off in the bed - what a mess the next morning to clean up.
My doctor gives me Cipro as that is not in the penicillin family. I finally found a fish place on the net that has Cipro, so I have it in two different strengths.
Then, went to a medical page that gave the right amount of Cipro to take for various problems and I printed that so I have the dosage to use. I’m not worried about its shelf life.
It is very important to read Dr. Bones one caveat about shelf life and POISON of this particular group of antibiotics:
“NOTE: It should be emphasized that FISH-CYCLINE [and other tetracycline antibiotics of various names] can become toxic after its expiration date, unlike most of the other medications listed. So consider acquiring the other ones listed, first.”
I think you don’t like antibiotics very much, so are you going to consider getting some?
