Too Close For Me
UpdatedI was given a script for zomax in 1983, for bursitis. It worked wonders with no side effects. A few months later my bursitis flared up. I still had my zomax, so I took one. Within a minute I new I was in trouble. I was alone with my 2 small children and my sisters 2 children. I called my parents and could barely speak. They got me to the hospital in less than 10 minutes from the time I called them. I was in anaphylactic shock, they had to give me a shot in my chest. I don't remember what else they did to me. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Just because you take something and have no problem, doesn't mean you won't develope an allergy to it later on. I didn't find out they took it off the market until sometime in the 90's. That's the closest to death I've ever been.

Hello, Dolores! How are you? Thank you for sharing this and I am so very glad that you got to the hospital in time.
Which Zomax did you have the reaction to? There have actually been two medications on the market under this brand name, an antibiotic and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory. Bursitis could go either way, since some of it can be infectious.
