Patient's question:
Confirmed cellulitis was treated with 0.5 doses of sodium oxacillin intravenously for 1 hour, followed by 0.5 doses of amoxicillin intravenously for another 1 hour. Will there be any adverse reactions?Past medical history and treatment outcomes: No specific history mentioned.
Assistance needed: To see if any further adverse reactions will occur.
Doctor's answer:
What should be done if cellulitis is diagnosed? It is a diffuse suppurative inflammation of subcutaneous tissue, subfascial tissue, intermuscular space, or deep connective tissue caused by Staphylococcus or Streptococcus. It can be treated with sensitive antibiotics. Sodium oxacillin and amoxicillin should be fine as long as there are no allergic symptoms.Advice:
1. As long as you are not allergic to these two antibiotics, there should be no significant side effects.
