My aunt has a lot of hemorrhoids and I accidentally put Ampicillin suppositories in her vagina instead of her anus. Will the Ampicillin still work, and could it cause bacterial vaginosis? Additionally, she hasn't eaten or drunk anything for four days. How long can she continue like this with me giving her liquids with a syringe? Is there a chance the antibiotics could still work with her not eating and drinking this long, and have you seen other elderly patients recover from a UTI without IVs?
