[QUOTE="tRidiot, post: 2352811, member: 9374"] I have been told you can get some antibiotics at the co-op for use on cows and fish and such. Something penicillin-based is usually good for alot of stuff, good broad-spectrum for throats, ears and skin infections. Amoxicillin I have heard is available like I said above. Of course, if ya got a penicillin allergy, first-generation and second-generation cephalosporins like cephalexin fit kinda the same niche. I.e., mostly for gram-positive bacterial infections. For infections usually suspected to be Gram-negative, such as bladder/kiddey and bowel, etc, something like ciprofloxacin or bactrim (trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole) are good starting places. Bactrim is great for most skin infections, and MRSA is usually sensitive to it. Cipro.... eh, not so much, but it IS the treatment of choice for anthrax. :) [B]Keep in mind, this is NOT advice being given to tell people to avoid medical treatment. This is hypothetical TEOTWAWKI stuff only.[/B] ;) Alternatives that cover alot of stuff may be doxyxycline and/or Augmentin, which is amoxicillin + clavulonic acid. Helps it work much better than plain amoxicillin and in high doses is good for MRSA, too. [/QUOTE]
