I'm experiencing nausea with a generic form of Biaxin. This surprises me because I used to take Biaxin with no problems in past years. I'm wondering if it might be the generic I'm reacting to. The mfr is Teva USA. Would I do better on the original Biaxin? Or am I going to have to change antibiotic? thanks

I had biaxin and couldn't handle it. I had this unreal nausea it was very very overwhelming. Had to switch drugs, worst nausea and anxiety I've had on any drug

i had to stop generic biaxin because of nausea too.
I'm not 100% sure that was the drug that cause it because i was on a few others.

I had a problem with Teva too, there are other mfrs (Sandoz, Watson, etc)..switched to Sandoz and haven't had a problem. Usually the big pharms purchase the cheapest generics. Smaller pharms usually have better quality generics.

I had issues with the TEVA generic, too, and have since asked my pharmacist to order me another brand. He did so without hesitation and so far, so good.
