I know this is an antibiotic but I don't know the long terrm use effects of it. I understand that I can't drink alcohol while I use it ~ but is it ok long term? Anyone know? What are the side effects for long term use? I took it for 2 weeks at first, it worked after a few days but I went back to watery stools a couple days after I stopped taking it. I took it for a month then stopped the loose stools came back after a day, now I'm thinking I need to try a few months ~ will I be ok?

The main thing to watch for is tingling in the tips of your fingers or toes. If this happens you need to stop using it immediately.

I have been on it very long term....my biggest problem is I wish I had been a strong probiotic the whole time! Other than yeast and its effectiveness going down with time...(I eventually alternated between different antibitiotics)I have been ok.

I have done years.
