I accidently found this web site by putting the name of the medication that has helped me with the symptoms that I have been experiencing. I had put in the word impetago on your web site previously but it did not list ecthyma as a possible answer when I did. When I put in amox clav the site lists impetigo - impetigo contagiosa - then it lists Ecthyma, if impetigo had listed various stages of this disease , I may have been able to get the doctor to prescribe this medication. It would have saved me taking useless medication. I believe it should also be listed under impetato for individuals like me that is looking for answers. I just started taking this medication and in two days I am finally feeling better. I don't have to sleep for twelve hours a day which is one of the main symptoms this disease has caused me. I don't know why my doctors haven't been able to figure this out? The medication they had been prescribing me Cephalexin 500mg with altabax ointment. They have given me five refills of each but neither has helped. I do have one question- how long can I take amox/clav before I have any negative side affects? Thank you for such a great web site that helps individuals like me looking for answers when doctors haven't been able to give them.
