2 | Sinus Infection | I had a really bad sinus infection and it started moving towards my chest. Massive cold and coughing, couldn`t move a muscle from the bed. Spend 3 days in it. Went to see a doc and he gave me this antibiotic 3x a day 500... quite high dose but I was hoping it would help. At first is did `unstuck` my head but since that nothing changed. It`s my last, 7th day, on it and I still have cold and cough. Plus whenever I try to go to the shop or whatever I sweat like mad! Very uncomfortable, and had to avoid ppl cos I was so embarrassed. Will see what happens after I stop. Overall, there has to be something better out there that this med! | Does very little... Plus, I agree with others - not very good for people with depression. It messed me up even more. | F | 27 | 7 days 500 3X day | 12/31/2015 | 1 | Hpilory | Lethargic, anxious, impending doom, fast heart beat. Felt like if my heart was skipping a beat and the my pulse started racing. Read on the internet that this drug can cause heart arrythmia and sudden death so I freaked out and stop taking it. I'm going natural to treat my hpylori and hopes that it works. | F | 32 | 1 days | 11/21/2015 | 3 | sinus infection | Super depressed, anxious, irritable, itchy vag, lethargic. my appetite is ok so no weight loss which adds to my depression . lol jk | huge pill. I will discontinue use. | F | 28 | 4 days | 11/19/2015 | 4 | Tooth infection | Feeling all the above, well described. Wondering if this is an allergic reaction? | F | 31 | 3 days 500mg | 11/17/2015 | 3 | Sinus Infection | Dizzy/light headed, confused, slightly nausiated, low sex drive, exhausted, very emotional, insomnia, vaginal dryness and itchiness | It cleared my sinus infection but the side effects were very extreme, not sure if I would take it or not as the side effects were almost unbearable. | F | 25 | 10 days 500 MG | 11/17/2015 | 3 | Tooth infection | Extremely tired, dizzy, confused, stomach ache, shortness of breath, body aches, no motivation, anxiety, pressure in head, flushed, wonder if I should stop taking this stuff....shaking a bit too. | I too am glad to see that I am not the only one....never had reaction before....most symptoms worse in the PM and evening but not so much in the AM. Gonna hang in there for a day more then reconsider. | M | 45 | 3 days 500 mg 3X day | 11/6/2015 | 1 | cold and cough | i took one amoxicillin 500 mg 8 hours later another one. i was sweaty and i fell asleep and had a hard time waking up. i stopped it. i am on alot of other heart meds, too. | F | 87 | 1 days 500 mg 3X day | 11/4/2015 | 1 | tooth infection | Immediately after taking my first dosage my head feels HOT. I feel extremely nauseous. I feel like space cadet with extreme pressure in my head and dizziness. I feel like i could burst into tears at any moment. Overall I just feel sick and tired. I hope my body adjusts to this because I have 19 more pills to take to kill this tooth infection. I dont know if ill be able to continue if the side effects are this bad already. Im sure there are more to come | I feel terrible! | F | 29 | 1 days 875 mg 2x | 10/16/2015 | 1 | Strep throat | Suicidal thoughts change in behavior hallucinations almost felt like a bipolar/schizophrenic episode | I work with therapists so i know what it looks like when someone is having an episode and i did i was perfectly fine after the first one but im supposed to be drinking two a day so i took another before i went to bed and out of nowhere freaked out on my family came back to my room and was talking to the ceiling in my head i knew i was imagining this but i thought i was completely crazy if you are not emotionally stable dont take this drug or if your running a very high fever speak to your doctor and let them know whats going on before you take it again.. | F | 21 | 1 days 500mg | 10/3/2015 | 1 | Wisdom tooth extraction | Writing this for my brother to share a story that will make you piss your pants it did me. He was taking it for wisdom tooth extraction. And 5 days in.. he went to a mental ward cause it induced Schizophrenia! He has been released out 2 week's later and still thinks people are out there to kill him with medication! And mild hallucinations! But there getting better! It's been 2 months now and he's almost back to normal! | Just do your research before you take any meds! Cause if you already have anxiety or depression it can make them worse. Depression can Leeds to suicidal thoughts anxiety can turn into panic disorder. But not forever! Just induces more problems! I take colloidal silver for my infections/bacterium/fugi problems! I just use 20PM colloidal silver 3 table spoons a day for 5 to 10 days depending on the problem! Good luck and stop using fake healers and switch to colloidals! Yes if you use it for 5 months it can make your skin ashy grey.. it's only for short term use! Month at the top! I have lyme disease and I get music in my head that doesn't go away! Colloidal silver for 4 weeks 3 table spoons a day all my symtoms subside for 3 years! | M | 26 | 10 days 500 | 9/18/2015 | 1 | Sinus Infection | Depression, foggy, extremely angry, cant concentrate, no energy at all, stopped taking medicine after 5 days. | M | 49 | 1 days 500 | 9/17/2015 | 2 | For a tooth infection | The drug worked by reducing tooth pain in the first day, but by the second day I noticed itching and soreness on the skin of my inner thighs, groin and buttocks accompanied by a red rash. By the third day my thighs felt very raw and tender and had begun to swell, while the rash was spreading downwards. There was itchy skin and spots all around my lower abdomen and buttocks. I phoned the dentist to let him know and he said I must be allergic to penicillins so he took me off the drug, prescribing erythromycin instead. The rash slowly disappeared over the next few days. I'm not criticising the drug which worked as an antibiotic, but it is obviously no use to me if I am allergic to it. I did not know I was allergic...it's about 15 years since I last had an antibiotic and I've never noticed these symptoms before. | M | 64 | 3 days 250mg 3X day | 9/11/2015 | 1 | wisdom tooth extraction | This drug is awful I have experienced fatigue, anxiety, panic attacks, loss of appetite, mood swings, depressed, vertigo, weakness | F | 32 | 7 days 500 | 9/10/2015 | 4 | UTI | It has helped a lot for UTI i must say. But yes, I'm feeling extremely tired and with a lack of energy, my stomach aches and I'm far too quiet for what i normally am. But it's ok, as long as i no more the UTI! | I do recommend it still. | F | 32 | 7 days | 9/7/2015 | 3 | Cavity | So tired all day...even after I drink an energy drink..no appetite.. Can't taste anything right.. | I'm tired of being so tired...I'm not gonna finish the bottle. | F | 36 | 6 days 500 mg 3x | 8/30/2015 | 3 | Wisdom tooth infection | I'm only on day 4 and going through hell. Panic attacks, anxiety, feeling mixed up. Very dizzy, lethargic, tired. No appetite. I really hope this disappears when I finish the course. | It does work well in fighting infection but I'm really paying for it! | F | 34 | 7 days 500 3X day | 8/23/2015 | 1 | Diverticulitis | Terribly anxious, severe tingling in my face and hands, confusion, headache. Symptoms just started today, 2nd day of treatment. Have never had problems with any antibiotics before. I usually take Cipro for this condition, Dr. decided to give me Augmentin. Feeling depressed too and cannot sleep. I rarely get headaches!!! Will never take again! Not going to take anymore. Will wait for it to get out of my system and ask for Cipro. Have never had such severe side effects to any medication! Used to have severe panic attacks. Very upset that this medication has caused them to return. Perhaps Doctors should ask patients if they have any anxiety/depression before prescribing! | Would not recommend for anyone with anxiety disorders or depression!!! | F | 55 | 2 days 875 2X day | 8/19/2015 | 1 | Sinus infection | I stopped taking the drug because I became very depresses with anxiety and insomnia. Feel horrible! | Does anyone know how long this will last after being off it? | F | 62 | 4 days 500mg 3X day | 8/15/2015 | 1 | Sinus infection | Horrible horrible antibiotic! I will never take again! Extreme head and sinus pressure, anxiety, zombie like feeling, dizziness, felt like I was going to faint, jittery, heart palpitations! Not worth taking because of the side effects! I've taken this 4 years ago, and didn't have these side effects! Not sure what has changed! Can't wait til this is out of my system! Last dose was 7 am this morning because I refuse to take anymore! | I did read that amoxicillin can cause more sensitivity to someone with hay fever allergies; which I do have. Wish I would have known this before hand. | F | 62 | 4 days 500 mg. | 7/25/2015 | 1 | Middle ear infection | HOLY ANXIETY BATMAN! Felt depressed, severe mood changes, felt like I was in a fish bowl looking out, feeling of doom, just felt sick and the anxiety was through the roof! | This drug does work at killing off an infection. I assume it will work well for some people and others, not so much. I began feeling sick after the first dose. I was yelling at my family for no reason. I almost called 911 because of the SEVERE ANXIETY ATTACKS, didn't think I would make it. It was just a major black cloud over my head. If this drug works for you, that's great. It absolutely did not work for me. Do your research before taking it. | M | 52 | 3 days 500mg 3X day | 7/18/2015 |
