"And even that bit of info about tetracycline causing renal failure if it was taken past expiration has never been studied. There was one case where a person died of renal failure and they found that he had taken expired tetracycline, but that is not a determinative cause/effect relationship."

I've read that the worst effect was stomach cramps and diarrea. Stop taking the tetracycline and both problems went away by themselves.

I took a course of tetracycline many years ago and had non-stop diarrhea the entire time, and for 5 weeks after. I mean like 10 times a day.

Finally had to go to an acupuncturist to cure it.

I have bad to extremely bad reactions to most pharm meds I’ve taken. That’s one reason I became an herbalist.
