Will my gut flora recover after a 10 day antibiotic treatment? I have taken antibiotics only once in my life 10 years ago. And I hate western idiots that take them for common colds. They should all die.

Yes. Unless you have some serious complication or condition, 10 days of antibiotics should not cause any sort of permanent damage to your gut flora.

Probiotics also don't help, btw. You get a small, short term benefit from taking them, and that's it. Long term there's no measurable difference between someone who took probiotics with antibiotics, so just save your money.

Sure but your risk of complications varies depending on the antibiotic. Tell us the indication and the antibiotic they chose

You're fine then amoxicillin is pretty well tolerated with little collateral damage.

Its fluoroquinolones I would advise to never take unless you absolutely have to, which is probably never because there are always alternatives

Of there has been a negative effect, how can one restore their gut to health?
I had a severe staph infection in one of my joints after surgery, I had to take intravenous antibiotics for a month. Iv never been able to eat the same since. I cannot put on weight anymore and remain at an unhealthy 70kg

Nigger, that shit is for gram postives, almost all of gut flora is gram negative.

Besides, you should only be worried if you're getting diarrhea after intravenous treatment, and in that case your kidneys and liver, maybe hearing, would be your bigger concerns.

Nigger, doctors tell people that because quinolones are broad spectrum and you'd like to save those in case shit hits the fan, otherwise you'll get those fucker UTIs with Ciprofloxacin resistance that are sensible to fucking nitrofurantoine (some petty shit).

70kg is good, you nigger. In fact that's still overweight. Besides, who the fuck even thinks about gut flora? You're worried for nothing, your doctor would already have changed the regime if he had noticed something wrong with your blood tests. If you're having chronic diarrhea you may want to check for immunosupression.
