How Much is a Box of 200 mg Fidaxomicin Tablets?

So, Fidaxomicin’s this antibiotic thing comes in these tablets and they’re 200 mg each. For treating a Clostridioides difficile infection, you’re supposed to take 200 mg of this stuff, twice a day for 10 days, okay? You’ll usually find these tablets in bottles, and a bottle has 20 of them. It’s a big deal to finish all the tablets in a bottle to make sure you get the full 10 days of treatment.

You might get some stuff like belly pain, an upset stomach,, gas, diarhea, a tough tush, or throwing up—nothing too serious usually. Even if things seem to get better fast, you have to finish all of the antibiotic to make sure you’re completely better. If you take more than you’re supposed to, or longer than you’re supposed to, it can mess you up or make you resistant to treatments later on.
