Ok this is my second day on generic IV rocephin, although the bag says Rocephin not some generic name(which is very confusing to me)it is generic(the dr. said).

Anyway it feels like it is hitting the spot, but I doubled up my IV meds yesterday. I did 2 instead of 1.

I am trying to regain my footing after having Oxford cut of my supplies for the last 3 weeks..

So I did 2 bags yesterday and 1 today..

Anyway , now I have an itchy rash on my breasts..On the top part above the nipples(forgive me). Anyone have this?

Allergic reaction? Please input is appreciated.

Hi Daniella,

You might want to run this by your doctor. I was on oral antibiotics for 14 months without any yeast problems. However, on the third month of Rocephin it was like all -ell broke out and quickly too.

It is possible it might be a yeast infection. This was the case for me as well as other areas of my body. My doctor prescribed diflucan and an antifungal/cortisone cream for the skin areas affected.

I now pulse in diflucan and use the cream when I notice an outbreak. The key is to catch it as soon as is possible if it is yeast. In this way, it can be better contained and controlled. I also use probiotics and eat a low carb diet.

I hope you are feeling better soon.

Best wishes, Debbie/RI
