It is my Doctor made my take this antibiotic before surgery I guest to prevent infection. With only taking in Clear liquids its making me feel sick

Neomycin, like most antibiotics, have a high likliehood of nausea. Especially on an empty stomach. I'm guessing it is a prophylactic treatment to prevent infection prior to surgery. If it is more than a one time dose, just make sure you take it with food or milk. But even then, it can still cause nausea. So sorry you're feeling yucky before your surgery!

That's the thing. I'm on the clear liquid diet and I can't have food nor milk. I have nothing to coat my stomach with. I'm excited for my surgery tomorrow but I feel miserable too. Ugh!

Call your MD's office. They may change antibiotics or give you a medicine to help with the nausea. It's a side effect, not an allergic reaction. But if it is really limiting your intake it's an issue. They likely have a MD oncall for tonight if it's after business hours. I would call. It will at least put your mind at ease.

Call. May be something common, but don't take a chance. Can you have broth? Ifso, something hot may help.
