    Had to go to the dentist today because of my lower gums rather sore.Also I had a toothache on and off over the last few weeks. He checked on my teeth. Said they were structurally sound but needed to be cleaned. He gave them a light cleaning today with the intention of doing a full cleaning in a months time.I was prescribed 2 different antibiotics. One called Mefac 500mg.The other antibiotic is called Pinamox 500.One is for pain relief...the other is to fight infection.One of the side effects of these antibiotics are dizziness .As I already suffer from vertigo is this going to be a problem for me?Also am I supposed to take both antibiotics together over the 5 day dosage period?

    No advice on medication can be given online.
    Your pharmacist & dentist can issue instructions if you phone them first thing tomorrow.
