i have a 4 year old daughter, has has furunculosis twice in a span of one month. was prescribed for ampiclox. I have several articles on boils treatments and came across one that outline NASEPTINS. I just want to find out if ampiclox is one of the Naseptins or is Naseptins and antiobiotic on its own. I am scared the boils might come back. Please help. Millicent, Nairobi Kenya
Hi.recurrent boils suggest recurrent staphylococcal or recurrent streptococcal infection. This might be a telltale sign of underlying immunodeficiency. I suggest you get your child evaluated for immunodeficiency. Regards -
