Outlawa1 1 Posted March 3, 2016 How long did you have to take prophylactic antibiotics after your surgery? Mine are making me SO sick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted March 3, 2016 I didn't, the hospital loaded me up with IV antibiotics before, during, and for the two days after surgery and that was it. Maybe try calling your PCP and seeing if he or she is willing to switch you to an antibiotic that is less likely to cause nausea? Some are worse than others in that regard.
