| 4 | | 2/27/2005 | 4 | Infection on hand | Really bad fatigue. Had trouble putting one foot in front of the other. It started on the 4th day and didnt know what had hit me!! Also had tummy pains, had to take buscopan. Have taken this anti-biotic before with no problems so cant understand why this has happened now. Has anybody else had these problems?? | F | 7 days 500 | 7/26/2018 | 3 | Extremely swollen lymph nodes | Extreme paranoia,I've had numerous panic attacks, I'm shaky, and have rage. | F | 2 days 500MG 3X day | 4/22/2016 | 3 | throat infection | Extreme tiredness and agitation | 10 days 827 | 9/22/2014 | 3 | Ear infection | I am wondering if these people experiencing these symptoms are actually experiencing a herxeimer reaction from Lyme bacteria die off and not a reaction to amoxicillin. If you normally dont feel 100%, have neuro problems, aches pains or other unexplainable symptoms normally you might want to look into possibly carrying lyme disease.

It provokes hysperia (tantrums) and sleepness in babies and the company forgets to mention such "tiny" side effect! | F | 2 | 3 days for 12kg 2X day | 1/14/2014 | 3 | strep throat | My first time taking it... 500MG 2 times a day 2 at a time. Some minor anxiety but sever dizziness for about 10-20 minutes at a time then goes away for a little while. Some shaking in my hands every once in a while. Finding it a little hard to concentrate every so often. Sometimes a slight fever. Feeling extremely drained all day while taking it... just overall exhausted while taking it. Ended up having to only take 2 a day instead of 4 and not finishing the prescription. | F | 14 | 10 days 500 MG | 7/19/2014 | 1 | Blood in stool | It have been a week that i have stop taking that medicine i have anxiety disorder so much and i am over thinking and i have some irritation in my tongue | Don't take this seriously shit | M | 14 | 1 weeks 500mg 3TAD | 6/15/2020 | 1 | infection | I've had mild panic attacks in the past but never this severe. Only until taking amoxicillin, I've never hyperventilated in my life. Until recently and my hands would lock up and everything and it was scary! I was on amoxicillin for 21 days to treat an infection. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I had to detox the antibiotics out of my body and start replenishing my good bacteria again and that's when when the panic attacks completely stopped for some weeks now and it's been extremely relieving. I've felt a lot of difference and I feel so much better now. Do not recommend this drug | F | 14 | 7 3X day | 11/27/2022 | 2 | One wisdom tooth removed | Yes I am really 15! I'm guessing this is the reason why I cannot fall asleep. I get sleepy I tell you, but as I shut my eyes I can't fall asleep and it's bothering me so much. | F | 15 | 2 days 500MG | 1/27/2015 | 1 | Suspected Kidney Infection | This is one of the worst drugs. I'm 15 and was getting extreme gas and nausea, pain. Me and my mum went to the hospital to find a diagnosis because I would constantly be belching/feeling sick for 4 weeks. I had a urine test done and it came back as a suspected kidney infection because i had blood in my urine... but i was also on my period that day... they didn't even tell me to go back home and come back when i'm off my period. they prescribed me with antibiotics anyway because they thought it would be a kidney infection and i had to take it because i had no other option. nothing really changed when i started taking it then after i stopped taking it that's when the side effects kicked in... i had diarrhoea at one point while taking it. then shortly after with a yeast infection/vaginal discharge... my stools started turning black. my hands were slightly tingling for the whole day and then it triggered my whole body would go numb and my hands would be paralyzed and severe pins and needles | F | 15 | 7 days 250/125 3X day | 9/10/2022 | 3 | Tonstilitis | I've been taking amoxicillin for around 4 days. I have been feeling depressed and not motivated to do anything. | M | 16 | 10 days | 7/16/2015 | 2 | Wisdom teeth removal recovery | EXTREMELY emotional | Everything someone said or did to me I took personally and I'd go off and cry. Or, I'd snap at my family and then go off and cry because of the guilt. It made my emotions turn into a roller coaster of basically anger and crying. I was a wreck. | F | 16 | 10 days 500 | 8/13/2016 |
AMOXICILLIN (AMOXICILLIN): Amoxicillin is used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. This medication is a penicillin-type antibiotic. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria. This antibiotic treats only bacterial infections. It will not work for viral infections (such as common cold, flu). Using any antibiotic when it is not needed can cause it to not work for future infections. Amoxicillin is also used with other medications to treat stomach/intestinal ulcers caused by the bacteria H. pylori and to prevent the ulcers from returning.
