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.    (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

 2  Bacterial infection I just took my first dose of amoxicillin around 12:00m today. I have the worst anxiety I have ever experienced, which says a lot bc I have an anxiety disorder already. But, I haven't felt this way in YEARS. I know that is has to be the amoxicillin. I have taken both of my anti-anxiety meds to try and combat the symptoms, but they aren't putting a dent in it. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience with amoxicillin before, but I do know that people can develop an allergy over time. I'm supposed to take this for 10 days. I don't know if I can.

 1  Sinus Infection Anxious, panicky, insomnia, feeling of dread after one hour of taking this med. I couldn't understand what was wrong with me until reading other people experiencing these same symptoms. These are not "rare" side effects if so many people are experiencing them. This medication needs to be reevaluated by the FDA. If you tell your doctor you get bad anxiety from Amoxicillin they brush it off. Ugh. Take a different antibiotic than Amoxicillin Clavulanate and Amoxicillin. F 61 4 days

 1  Tooth infection The amoxicillin didn't seem to help much with my toothache, but on day three I started to feel very agitated and depressed. So I stopped taking it, and after 12 hours or so I began to feel ok again. I will never take it again. It was not a pleasant experience. F 66 3 days

 1  Ear infection I had crazy anxiety and no sleep immediately after I took my first pill. Unknowingly I took them for 7 days not knowing it caused my panic attacks. First day after I was off them I felt better immediately. Still having some crazy anxiety but I am taking medicine for it which seems to be helping but definitely a crazy ride I'd not recommend to anyone who has anxiety disorder. Be kind to yourself and let your body heal. You're not alone! F 25 7 days

 1  Infection behind tooth I feel like the wrote every review of Amoxicillin on this and so grateful to come across this and not feel crazy/alone. Day 1 and 2 was fine. Day 3 I had a lot of anxiety and felt worried for no reason. Day 4 (today) was the worst. From the moment I woke up I had extreme anxiety, heart palpitations, I felt like I couldn't breathe for 3 hours, dizzy and felt like I could pass out, diarrhea, extreme abdominal cramping, nausea. Please don't listen to doctors and instead listen to your body! Also increase your probiotic intake for the next little while to restore the damage this medication has created. Good luck and you're not alone! F 38 7 days

 1  Tooth abscess First 2 days I took it I was fine, morning of day 3 I had anxiety and heart palpitations. Through that day they got worse and worse. Next day I took one more dose and it got out of control. I legit was freaking out. Most of my side effects have subsided but the anxiety, racing heart, and short of breath I still have 4 days after taking last dose. I have always done well with amoxicillin. I will NEVER touch it again. F 38 3 days

 1  Broken molar caused infection Anxiety so bad, panic attacks, feeling as if i am choking whenever i try to swallow, couldn't talk kept feeli out of breath , pacing back and forth, jittery, fast heart pace , diarrhea, stomach muscles movements, fearful thoughts. I hate taking this pill, i do not feel like myself when taking it. Each time i took this pill literally within 3 minutes i felt the effects, i had no control of my body at all and that scares me. I'd rather have pain than be scared and nearly call for emergency help. F 30 2 days

 1  Wisdom tooth extraction The first pill I took I felt pretty okay though I didn't sleep that well. The next day I felt like not getting up at all. I finally got out of bed and took the second dose and within an hour started to feel backache like I was getting sick. Then turned into body aches, chills, fever and heart palpitations. I stopped and didn't take anymore doses. By the time I was ready to go bed my fever finally broke and my body aches almost subsided. By the third day I now feel back to normal, other than the heart palpitations. I called the oral surgeon and he said my symptoms "couldn't possibly" be from the meds and was probably covid " I read the pamphlet and fever chills was definitely on there as a symptom! I've also had covid before - I hate that that is the fall back. He said however I can stop taking the meds and be fine. Well, all I can gather is my body felt like it was tanking just 2 doses in and after stopping I feel better and normal again. F 31 7 days

 2  UTI Anxiety, depression, heart palpitations, fatigue, nausea, stomach upset. Severe anxiety and fearful thoughts happened on day 5 and escalated on day 6. I have felt tired and unwell since the first pill. I started on SULFAMETHOXAZOLE/TRIMETHOPRIM, but only lasted three days due to severe tachycardia and horrible anxiety. At this point I believe the cure is worse than the disease. Im going to research a more holistic route at this point. F 56 6 days
