Staph Infection - Antibiotics for pregnancy?

[FabFiona]

I'm seconding the advice to call Rodney. He is a pharmacist and THE BEST source of information.

Let us know how you go.

I called the number, Rodney is interstate at the moment but there was another man that helped me, he said both types of antibiotics are very safe through pregnancy. Thanks so much for the number!
I am still worrying about having it drained though, it is going to freakin hurt and I will bawl :-(

Staph is one of those things that quickly becomes immune to ABs. Get yourself some 30+ Manuka honey from a health food shop and some guaze. Apply it topically and cover with gauze (because it's very sticky). Manuka honey is one of the few things shown to get rid of staph/MSMR etc. btw - it is expensive.

I have had recurrent staph infection, but not while pregnant, I'm sorry. What finally kicked my last infection was Fucidin topical ointment, an old school staph treatment that isn't often prescribed anymore, in conjunction with my ABs. I also had a daily salt bath and a shower washing with phisohex.
