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  Tooth Infection/ Sinus Infection Head fog, Dizziness, Naseau, Head ache cramps, weakness in arms and legs, fatigue, unable to concentrate, depression, anxiety, anger, unmotivated, sad, hot flashes. This stuff is crazy, it really messes with your emotions and everyday bodily functions. I became depressed about 2-3 days after taking them. Day 4 I felt really good, but day 5 I felt even worse than I did when I had the tooth infection/sinus infection. Lots of head fog, depression, dizziness everyday, very weak, shaking, hot flashes, felt like I was dying, thought I had something worse going on, lots of anxiety, but the worst was the depression, naseau and dizziness in head, as well as loss of concentration, unable to hold a conversation, and sometimes slurry of words. I always woke up feeling like I was getting the flu. They say it takes 4 days after your finished your medication for those symptoms to go away.......this stuff is really bad.. F 30 7 days

 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

 1  Tonsillitis Stomach cramps and diarrhea after only 2 doses. I had taken this medication 4 years earlier for a salivary gland infection and had the exact same reaction and stopped taking it. I thought maybe it would be OK this time around but same result. Never had a problem with any other antibiotic. Have stopped taking it and won't be taking it again. M 42 5 days

 3  Throat infection This medication didn't really do anything the first 2 days. It started to help my throat on Day 3 but that's when the side effects hit me really hard out of nowhere. I started to get heart palpitations, and since it's Saturday I decided I would keep taking it until Monday and then maybe get something else. Well it's Sunday morning and I feel extremely weak. I am getting muscle weakness and exhaustion. Lifting my arms and legs makes my heart beat really fast. I'm still getting heart palpitations. I don't think I'm going to take my 3:30am dose. I just want this to wear off. It's too bad because my infection is finally going away (after weeks of suffering with it) and now I feel like this. It also increased my anxiety a lot. I keep getting panic attacks, and get panic attacks in my sleep and heart palpitations even when I am not having an attack. The heart palpitations are all day long and it doesn't matter if I'm laying down or relaxing. I had to take these anally...because my infection is related to an ulcer. I have never felt so weak in my life. I don't want to know what will happen if I take it for another day. I don't reccommend this med if you have anxiety or if you start feeling muscle weakness. It's very scary. Little things are leaving me exhausted and out of breath. Time to call it quits and hope for the best. F 30 7 days

 5  Acute/Chronic sinusitis I noticed that I'm VERY hungry all the time. Not sleeping as much, but that is listed in the side effects. Trying to do yard work, leaves me very tire, however after resting, am able to finish what I start. I have battled sinus infections for 4 0 years now....THIS time I'm going to finally find a cure! (penicillin gives me red dots, but a doctor told me years ago that amoxicillin is a synthetic form) Just this morning on the 7th day, I had some diarrhea, but not much. I drink water by the bottle full! I have 7 more days to take this. If this does not work, then I go back and will start on a 21 day regime. I don't really care what the side effects are, as long as it isn't a bad reaction. After 40 years, I'm gonna get to the bottom of this! (there are many anti-biotics I can't take, and am not a candidate for sinus surgery) F 65 7 days
