What is Flucloxacillin?

Flucloxacillin is an antibiotic often used to treat bacterial infections. It falls under the penicillin group of antibiotics and is frequently prescribed for different skin and soft tissue infections, such as infected eczema.

Infected eczema, or secondary infected eczema, occurs when bacteria or other microorganisms infect skin affected by eczema. Initially, it will feel itchy and appear red. If you look closely in natural light, you might see a shiny, orange-like sheen on the skin, resembling a dusted shimmer. As the infection progresses, you may notice oozing and crusting with a yellow or golden hue.

How does Flucloxacillin work?

Flucloxacillin is an antibiotic from the penicillin family, designed to attack bacterial cell walls. It works by blocking a protein known as penicillin-binding protein (PBP), which is crucial for building these walls. By disrupting the cell wall creation, Flucloxacillin weakens the bacteria, leading to their death, and helps to clear infections. However, it only affects bacteria that are sensitive to penicillin-based antibiotics, like Staphylococcus aureus, which often causes infected eczema.

What doses of Flucloxacillin are there?

Flucloxacillin is used to treat various infections in your body and comes in several forms: injection, capsules, or oral solution. The capsules are available in two strengths: 250mg and 500mg.

If your eczema is infected, you'll probably be advised to take 500mg of Flucloxacillin four times a day for 5 to 7 days.

How long does Flucloxacillin take to work?

Many people notice their symptoms getting better within 2-3 days of beginning Flucloxacillin. However, the time it takes to work can differ for each individual. It's crucial to continue taking the entire course of medication as your clinician has advised, even if you start feeling better. This ensures the infection is fully cleared and helps stop it from returning.

What should I do if I accidentally take Flucloxacillin incorrectly?

If you or your child have taken an excessive amount of Flucloxacillin, get in touch with your doctor or head to the nearest hospital. If you can, bring the medication pack and any leftover capsules with you. Signs of an overdose might include feeling sick, vomiting, and diarrhoea.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's nearly time for your next dose, just skip the missed one and carry on with your regular schedule.

If you have any more questions about using this medicine, feel free to ask our clinical team. They're available 24/7 to help with any queries or concerns you may have.

Can I drink alcohol while taking Flucloxacillin for infected eczema?

Yes, you can have alcohol while taking flucloxacillin, as it doesn't interact with the medication. However, it's important to drink sensibly and be aware that flucloxacillin can cause liver issues in some individuals.

If you drink too much alcohol, your liver will need to work harder to process it, which adds more strain to the organ.

Can you get any side effects while taking Flucloxacillin for infected eczema?

Flucloxacillin is usually well-tolerated,

but it might cause some side effects. However, not everyone will have them, so there's no need to worry. The most common side effects, which may affect up to 1 in 10 people, are mild stomach issues, such as diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting.

Be aware that taking flucloxacillin and paracetamol together, particularly in high doses, can lead to interactions. There's a slight risk of developing a blood and fluid issue known as high anion gap metabolic acidosis. This is more likely if you have conditions such as severe kidney problems, sepsis, or malnutrition. It's best to avoid using flucloxacillin and paracetamol at the same time.

Typical signs and symptoms of high anion gap metabolic acidosis include:

How is Flucloxacillin different from other treatments for infected eczema?

Flucloxacillin is an oral medication and is often the first choice for treating infected eczema. However, if your eczema isn't due to bacteria or if the infection is only in a small area, you would typically use various topical treatments instead.

If you're allergic to penicillins or have found that flucloxacillin hasn't been effective for you before, clarithromycin 250mg taken twice daily for 5 to 7 days is another option.

If you're pregnant and have a penicillin allergy, you'll probably be given erythromycin at a dose of 250 mg to 500 mg, taken four times a day for 5 to 7 days.

Loooove these shoes!
Size: 7.5 Wide, Color: Chestnut Brown Faux Leather
I have these in several colors, and they’ve become a true staple in my wardrobe. The Amazon Essentials Women's Belice Comfortable Slip-On Ballet Flats are exactly what I look for in an everyday shoe—simple, versatile, and comfortable right out of the box. The slip-on design makes them super convenient for busy days, and they pair effortlessly with everything from jeans to dresses to work outfits. They’re lightweight but still feel supportive enough for all-day wear, and I appreciate that they don’t require a break-in period. The fit is generally true to size, and the variety of colors makes it easy to stock up and rotate depending on the outfit. Overall, these are reliable, easy-to-wear flats that offer great value for the price. Not flashy, just consistently comfortable and practical—which is exactly why I keep coming back to them.

REALLY CUTE SHOE BUT CUT WAY TOO SMALL!
Size: 8, Color: Black Patent
I received the black patent leather shoes today and they are so cute! Sadly I need to return them because they are cut way too small. I normally wear a 7.5 or 8 on dress shoes so I ordered the 8. They are so tight across the top that it's uncomfortable as soon as I put them on. They are smaller than a normal size 8 dress shoe. The big toe area is extremely uncomfortable because it doesn't allow any room for it at all, so my big toe just presses against the side and end of the shoe without even walking in them. I have very narrow feet and these still are too small for me. So I am returning them and I already ordered a 8.5 W and hope that will fit much better. The patent leather is very cute and adds just enough dressy that I can wear them with slacks or my Capri jeans. I like the slip on and the cushion foot bed because it feels soft.
