Try taking with milk? Empty stomach thing is usually the first thing the drs tell you to ignore if they are having this effect. It's only optimum conditions for them to work, not essential

I am only taking antibiotics as I've got an infection in my finger!! It was agony, and getting very fat - I just ignored it, until nurse friend told me to panic, and even the doctor's receptionist said I needed to see doc quickly (must be the first time I've got an immediate appointment without crying). Is is definitely ok to take on a non-empty stomach? I thought it prevented the antibiotics from working appropriately? Will have to start googling ...

I'm a real non-complier with pills, hate them, always imagining side effects even if there aren't any.
