how long should antbiotics take to kill strep throat?

ohheyboo · 3 months

OK so i am currently taking antibiotics for strep throat. I have been told to get the following to help bring back my immune system, what are your thoughts?

Vitamin C with bioflavonoids 5,000 to 20,000 mg daily To fight infection and boost the immune response

Zinc lozenges 1 15-mg lozenge every 2 to 3 waking hours for 3 days then reduce to 1 lozenge 4 times daily until healed An immuno-stimulant that aids healing

Acidophilus Absolutely necessary if antibiotics are prescribed. Replaces good bacteria. Use a non dairy formula and DO NOT take at the same time as the antibiotics.

Vitamin A with mixed carotenoids including beta-carotene 10,000 IU daily for 3 days then reduce to 5,000 IU daily Needed for repair of tissue. Aids healing. Emulsion form is recommended for easier assimilation

Vitamin B Complex 50 mg of each major B vitamin daily plus extra B5 (pantothenic acid) and B6 (pyridoxine) of 50 mg per day

Vitamin E 200 IU daily

back of a 1991 suburban, wintertime, 2am. former girlfriend. 69ing. she has had her clit pierced since we dated. im going to town on this thing and it falls out... and i swallowed it! I decided to keep going until i realised how much more the jewelery would hurt coming out the other end. so i jump outside in the snow, ass naked, put my fingers down my throat (pulled trigger( till i threw it up... got back in, she gave me some gum... and picked up where we left off! brilliant!

I want to stress that i believe this person needs to be put in jail for all this. I am reading alot of violent statements on here and I don't believe in violent retaliation. This post was created to raise awareness to help locate a suspect in a serious crime involving people I care about. I believe in our justice system, even though I recognize it's flaws.

Let's stop with the violent rants please, and thank you again for all your upvotes

I don't believe that posting a link to a news article by the globe and mail is invading someone's privacy, simply bringing attention to a very serious crime.

I work 12 hours on an oil rig then drive 15 hours home. My key points are: 1. closing your eyes for even 5 minutes will help a tonne. set an alarm on your phone and take short naps, half an hour tops. 2. spitz. lots of spitz. I eat a 1kg bag each way. your tongue is raw but your alive! 3. take energy drinks in moderation. i usually drink two for the 15 hours. over do it and you will crash from the sugar, which will defeat the purpose.

A good friend of mine has wicked dental hygiene, brush twice a day, floss, mouth wash, the works. Went to a dentist and got told he had 18 cavities and needed a root canal, $4000 bill.

I told him about a dentist i used to have as a kid that we later found out was lying about the need to have cavities drilled out.

Second opinion, all the way!

how can i be expected to be friendly to someone who entered my house on more than one occasion and took shit?! just talk to him you say...

i work with kids and consider myself a very sympathetic and reasonable person, but I will not tolerate theft.

its winter here in canada and the skates arnt beign used much, hence why we didnt know it was missing.

what were we to do, change where we keep all our skateboards because one randomly ended up in a bush outside our house? could have easily been used during a party and left outside, lots of possibilities.

when i find out who this is i plan on calling the cops and letting them deal with it. If its this same kid who was breaking into cars a few months ago this will be another botch on his record.

London Elektricity, liquid-fun drum and bass. Not nearly as abrasive as most d and b, very mellow with an amazing ability to make you move. Check out "just one second" from the syncopated city album.

Also, Passenger action. The new project from canadian greats choke and thefullblast. Its an amazing mix of alternative and prog-punk with big breakdowns and deep lyrics.

Check out absent minds from the self titled album.
