| Add Amoxicillin review My dentist prescribed 1500 mgs daily to clear up an abcessed tooth so it could be pulled. My only problems were that it has made me very tired, but it did reduce the swelling in the abcessed tooth; and also gave me a headache each day. Prrescribed Amoxicillin QID 500mg post root canal surgery. Besides the normal intestinal distress, developed dry eye syndrome and severe tinnitus. Will not take again. This medication causes anxiety issues Ive been prescribed Amoxicillin along with other medications to treat my H. Pylori infection. i don't know if it was the infection or the medication, but i do have frequent bowl movements and i usually feel really nauseous. my trips to the bathroom were long and very frequent, frequent enough to occur at least twice or three times during school. for anyone who is taking this medication or taking t ... I developed constipation and passed a hard stool giving me hemmorrhoids, leaving me with a bloated abdomen and queasy feeling and flu like symtoms. I call the local pharmacist and he said no it couldn't be the medication, ODD I was ok right before taking it.

I had a relatively minor corrective operation on a toe and was given this presumably as a prophylactic to prevent post-op infection. 1st dose, 1 hour after food, within 30 minutes starting itching all over, hives, rapid heartbeat, tried to get up and passed out momentarily. Symptoms subsided within 30 minutes. There are too many other antibiotics out there to risk this ... Extremely sleepy, Already had a seizure disorder just started this for an abcess. I have read some reviews and they are scary. Z-pak worked for 3 days then I switched to this. Used Clindamycin for the same tooth 5 weeks ago from the ER and that was super. Hope this works ok. Took Amoxicillin before that for a root canal and that worked for 3 days. Z-pak at that time worked well. I guess its how bad the infection is. Tooth getting pulled next wee ... Keflex is the ONLY medication, so far that I have ever had a reaction to-- and it was severe and pretty immediate. I broke out in a SEVERE and BURNING (I mean ON FIRE) rash on my entire body-- so bad I could barely wear clothes-- especially underwear-- because the rash was especially bad in that area. I have an infection under my thumb nail (discolored, sore) which has lasted for 3 -4 weeks. This antibiotic doesn't seem to be working. | |||
