Ray said positive things about lidocaine for bleeding colitis. You might research on that for a bit.

@laoa Hi, yes thank you, I'm aware of lidocaine, but the sources i've found so far feel a bit sketchy (if you have a trusted source, please share), so I think I'll try other options first. I've seen people have success with niacin, apple pectin, and xylitol (all of these should mainly work by increasing butyrate production in the gut).

Also, acute gastrointestinal problems and fever could also be an allergic reaction to augmentin.

Yes, but I think "allergy" is just an umbrella term for the things mainstream medicine is clueless about. Like in this case it could be that my intestinal permeability was already really bad in the first place and the Augmentin killing the bacteria in the gut and them releasing their endotoxin was the final straw, or something along those lines

die off this strong? more like the genocide effect then

@wrl thanks for the clarification, i expressed myself imprecisely

yes, i've perused the former RP forum and what i found was incomplete/not completely relevant, hence i created this post on here

Hi,

I wanted to try antibiotics because my tongue had been solid white for a month and my digestion, although decent, wasn't perfect. I was especially troubled by frequent diarrhea-like stools, mild milk intolerance, and acne.

Long story short, it seems like that was a big mistake. The day after I started taking small doses of Augmentin (50-100mg), I got fever up to 100F and horrible diarrhea with blood. I stopped the Augmentin on this day. Now after 4 days, the diarrhea seems to be better, but I'm still left with some IBD symptoms.

What do you think could've provoked such a violent reaction and what do you think is the best way forward?
