Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you: if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding; if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement; if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances; if you have diarrhea, a stomach infection, or kidney problems. Sumycin may cause dizziness or blurred vision. These effects may be worse if you take it with alcohol or certain medicines. Use Sumycin with caution. Do not drive or perform other possibly unsafe tasks until you know how you react to it. Contact your doctor right away if stomach pain or cramps, severe diarrhea, or bloody stools occur. Do not treat diarrhea without first checking with your doctor. Be sure to use Sumycin for the full course of treatment. If you do not, the medicine may not clear up your infection completely. The bacteria could also become less sensitive to this or other medicines. This could make the infection harder to treat in the future. Sumycin may cause you to become sunburned more easily. Avoid the sun, sunlamps, or tanning booths until you know how you react to Sumycin. Use a sunscreen or wear protective clothing if you must be outside for more than a short time. Do not use after expiration date. Outdated medicine is highly toxic to the kidneys. Long-term or repeated use of Sumycin may cause a second infection. Tell your doctor if signs of a second infection occur. Your medicine may need to be changed to treat this.
