The side effects listed here is mostly copy pasted from the life long use in the normal application , glaucoma. You won´t develop kidney stones over a few days to a week use of Diamox , and you´ll find the list of all possible side effects for antibiotics will come out equally daunting . I see that you mention packing three different antibitics . Listing all possible side effects for quinolones like Cipro for example you would come up with , among others : <br /><br /><br />* Phototoxic reactions <br />* polyneuropathy <br />* liver failure <br />* heart rhytm change <br />* anaphylactic chock (!) <br /><br />and a number of medicines that interact with Cipro. <br /><br />Also I can´t help noticing that your own travel doc doesn´t seem to agree with your view on Diamox : the fine medication mentioned in your Vacccines and Medication post should be Diamox :<br /><br />"We got prescriptions for a bunch of other fine medications as well as something to help with altitude sickness.."vistethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12065214581030875234noreply@blogger.com
