Wound Infection and Flucloxacillin — Can It Make Tinnitus Worse?

[James Foley]

I've been prescribed Flucloxacillin to treat an infected wound, but I know antibiotics play havoc with some people's tinnitus.

Does anyone have any experience with Flucloxacillin at all? From what I can find, it being in the penicillin class should make it reasonably safe...

Hi, was wondering how you got on. I hope it turned out ok?

I have taken Flucloxacillin for an infection on my skin that wouldn't go away and didn't notice any change. I took it for a couple days (max a week), I can't really remember how much the doctor gave me as it was last year but didn't notice anything change in terms of tinnitus for me at least.
