Pertussis Prophylaxis
"So my 10 year old daughter has tested positive for whooping cough therfore the whole family needs to be treated , I have 3 daughters 10, 9, and 5 we are all taking the  clarithromycin this is the 2nd day and we all feel very dizzy , nauseous, have a horrible taste in our mouths and diarrhea.  I feel like we are being poisoned not treated. Is it worth all this pain and discomfort for 7 days ,  our other option is not to take the antibiotics and  to stay isolated for 21 days ....... I don&#039;t know what to do ."
