Marijuana use is not recommended while on antibiotics. Marijuana use with antibiotics can interfere with the absorption and metabolism of the antibiotics in the gastrontestinal tract by affecting the enzymes needed to absorb the antibiotics. It can slow down the amount of time it takes for the meds to begin working to fight infection. Marijuana use can also slow down the healing process of th body, so a longer time to recover may occur. THC is fat soluble so it gets absorbed by white blood cells which are the ones used to kill bad bacteria by eating it. So when THC is absorbed, the white blood cells can’t function properly. So recovery is slowed.
Antibiotics only work for bacteria, which can cause infections. The swine flu (or H1N1) is caused by a Virus, which antibiotics will not help with.
Maybe you meant antiviral meds? if you have the flu, that is
I have in the past. Usually because I have a UTI and it dulls the pain.

Normally i wud smoke my balls off wen im sick, But i wana get better so ppl dnt smoke wen on anti-boitics its simple. no point taking dem if ur going slow it down by smoking weed den da course doesnt work.
So does this mean ill live if i smoke and take flu medicine??....
I was once on some strong antibiotics, I forgot the name now, and I had smoked some skunk.. It wasn’t a good mix at all. I started hallucinating and I had no control on my body.
Before you take the pills, make sure to find out how strong your dosage is and really consider if it’s worth that high.
