Nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, hearing loss, abnormal heart beats (arrhythmias),disturbances of liver function, inflammation of the liver (hepatitis), yellowing of the skin and eyes (jaundice), and allergic skin reactions

These are just some of the side effects of Erythrocin. Drugs are rarely the best answer due to the side effects and potential for extreme damage to the body, especially the liver and kidneys as these organs are the filtering system for the body and are forced to filter out the chemicals.

For Rheumatic Fever, there are many herbal solutions that are much more effective than a chemical drug.

These herbal treatments include Olive Leaf Extract, Silver, Oregano extract, Echinacea, Goldenseal, and Bilberry. Drinking several glassed of green tea, hot or iced, will have a healing effect. Chamomile tea will also be helpful if taken before bed.

To reduce any pain, your daughter can take White Willow Bark, which is a natural form of aspirin. It is important that your daughter keep as healthy as she can while fighting this. Following a healthy diet, drinking plenty of water, and getting exercise will make a huge difference. Keeping her stress level to a minimum will help reduce flare ups as well.
