Hi, It's been a while... but I remember getting nauseous when I began Rocephin. For some reason eating while infusing seemed to help.

Rocephin, or any new antibiotic can take a few days to have your body adjust to. It can also cause gallbladder sludging so you should be on Actigall to prevent that. Hang in there and give it a chance.
