Reviews

Catherine
I treat antibiotics with fear and try not to drink them. But this year she started a cough and had to treat bronchitis. A district pediatrician prescribed the drug Lincomycin. I was terrified to read how many side effects he had: diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. But it is necessary to be treated and I bought.
I was also prescribed Linei probiotic, well, cough syrup. I began to drink it all. Lincomycin should be drunk 3 times a day. I drank it before meals. The medicine is produced in capsules. Fortunately, I had no side effects. Saw the drug for 7 days. At the reception, the doctor then canceled it, as my condition improved. My temperature had already passed by the evening of the first day of taking the medicine. Lincomycin was pleased. I liked its effect, the price is affordable.
