Antibiotic side-effects commonly include nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, diarrhea, photosensitivity, fever, vaginal yeast infection, and discoloration of the tooth. Anaphylactic reactions, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, hypotension, arrhythmia, tendonitis, and seizures, though rare, are the serious adverse effects of an antibiotic.
