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)

 1  Sinus infection Feeling absolutely depleted of all energy. Fatigue like no other. I can sit and watch a show hours at a time without moving or really wanting to. No want to do much of anything. I was given this prescription sometime last week. I stopped taking it because it gave me diarrhea and I didn't need that going on while at school. Sinus's became worse and I started back on them. Have been leathrgic ever since. M 25 2 days

 1  Wisdom Tooth Extraction - Infection On day 3, I noticed that I was becoming very lethargic, had a negative outlook, had diarrhoea, upset tummy, lack of motivation and becoming angry. On day 4, I was very angry and unhappy and felt very tired. My head felt clogged up like there's a fog inside that just won't clear. Day 5 (today) I woke up exhausted and had to call in sick to work. I feel fatigued, lethargic, foggy, have a negative outlook and I am very irrational and angry. I just had a fight with my boyfriend over something ridiculous that would normally never bother me, I got so wound up, my heart was beating really fast and I started sweating. I've only took one dose today and I think it will be my last! It did clear up the infection in my tooth, hopefully I have took enough to eradicate the infection because I'm not putting my body through any more of this antibiotic. F 27 5 days

 1  Strep Throat Heart racing, anxiety, feelings of impending doom, hard time sleeping A few hours after my 3rd dose of Amoxicillin (approx. 28 hrs after first dose) my heart started racing suddenly. Then I had a feeling of impending doom come over me and became totally anxious. I had nothing to feel doom or anxiety about. It took a long time for me to finally fall asleep and then I did not sleep well. The next morning I took my next dose and my heart continued to race, I still felt anxious and impending doom. I called my pharmacy who said anxiety can be a side effect. I've been on Amoxi before with no problem; but I don't believe this high of a dose. They told me to call my doctor and to not take my next dose. My doctor prescribed me another antibiotic and I can say that my heart racing is starting to slow down now. It's been about 16 hours since I took my last Amoxi pill. I have no idea why suddenly it had this effect on me; but I will never take it again. Who wants to feel to like that?? F 46

 1  Epydemidis Started with nausea, hot flashes, night sweats (soaking). By the second day flash depression came on and had twitching in muscles. By the 3rd day felt fine other than slight nausea and sleepiness. The 4th day I took it and felt suddenly weak and extremely tired as well as impending doom/felt like I was phasing out and dying. After I passed out I woke up lethargic and paranoid something else was wrong. Now I have burning in urinary track like a chemical burn. I think I will go back to the doctor and try something else. I can't remember having these kinds of problems from amoxicillin in the past, in fact, I always used to think of it as the perfect antibiotic but something has changed. M 34 4 days
