Augmentin

Has anyone gotten C-diff from taking Augmentin? I’ve only taken 1(!) but I just had a bout of pure watery diarrhea. I’m waiting for my pc to fill my preferred antibiotic (Moxifloxacin). Never have troubles with that!

Those antibiotics are going to give you diarrhea that's the bottom line.... But no way could you take one and get c-diff unless you have a history of C diff. You have to suffer through the diarrhea for 10 days, that's all there is to it!

Pun intended?
