  1. You'll most likely be fine but if you're very concerned and depending on what you were taking them for, you should speak with your doctor.


  2. It depends, in how many days time did you take 17, and how long are you supposed to be on them? If it is before the time you are supposed to be through than by law you are not supposed to get anymore until time. Some drs. might risk getting there license took if they gave them to you. Also your body is only supposed to be on antibiotics for so long, so that also plays a factor.  

  3. umm......nothing will happened but you should see ur doctor

  4. the bacteria that didn't die will mutate into super-bacteria and consume your body.  You should be fine..

  5. You need to always finish all your antibiotics. The problem with antibiotics is that when you do not use all of the pills subscribed the reason you took the pills in the first place may not go away entirely and come back. Our bodies can adjust to antibiotics and that is why we need to limit our intake of the drug. You do not want to get something one day and there be nothing you can do the next. You could become immune and antibiotics will not work anymore. I would call your doctor. You probably are ok since you are only missing 3, but you need to check just in case and he or she can call into your pharmacy for the 3 pills.

  6. If you are feeling 100 % better, don;t worry about. Three missed does isn't enough to stress over. However, if you are not feeling better call your Dr and he will write you a RX for the lost doses.  

  7. Call your Doctor, hes the only one who knows exactly what condition your have, what the medicine does for you and all that stuff. Hes the only one who can really answer that question.
