| 1 | sinus infection | Feel like I have a bad flu when I take it! | Sucks ass | F | 32 | 10 days 875 | 10/31/2014 | 5 | Sinus infection | No side affects | F | 38 | 10 days 875 | 10/27/2014 | 1 | Double Ear Infection | Severe heart palpitations! Increased heart rate, nauseated (even though I took it with food), increased body temperatured, chills, hot flashes, light sensitivity, panic attacks, headache, dizziness, lethargic (extremely tired could not get out of bed or move), malaise (over all sickness) bodyaches, light sensitivity, and I could not walk temporary paralysis etc. | I would NEVER take this medication again, it is to harsh for the body system. Amoxicillin (in my opinion) does more harm than good!!! | F | 32 | 10 days 875 2X day | 10/26/2014 | 4 | strep throat/green tongue | Not a fair review seeing as I only took this starting today. I have 10 days to go. Started off at the hospital through an iv. Since I have been released from hospital, no side effects other than abnormal sweating. Wouldn't call it extreme but I definitely wouldn't say it is normal, I am not even hot. Other than that I feel fine, for now | F | 24 | 1 days 500 mg | 10/25/2014 | 5 | Teeth Extraction | Mild diarrhea | I was pleasantly surprised that I had no side effects whatsoever other than mild diarrhea. Had it not been for the diarrhea, I would not have even known that I had been taking this medication. | M | 52 | 7 days 500 4X day | 10/17/2014 | 1 | Lung infection | Dizzy, confused, extreme tiredness, extreme weakness, sore head | F | 22 | 7 days 500mg 3x | 10/9/2014 | 3 | throat infection | Extreme tiredness and agitation | 10 days 827 | 9/22/2014 | 4 | Infected tooth/gum | Slight headache, slight feeling of brain fog, queasiness, wakeful and not being able to have deep sleep | I tried to evaluate my symptoms and decide which ones were caused by amoxicillin and which ones were caused by a physical malady. I narrowed it down to the ones I listed because I also have sinus problems that make me feel really spaced out and also give me facial pain. Seems many here have an anxiety problem, which I do as well. is my anxiety worse on this large dose? Not really. I think the tiredness I feel from the amoxicillin actually makes me feel calmer. However, I do feel slightly more emotional than usual. Just 1 more day on the drug then I'll see how I feel. It has a very short half life so I won't have to wait long. | M | 66 | 10 days 1000mg 3X day | 9/18/2014 | 3 | Wisdom tooth extraction | Gurgly stomach, nausea (even when taken with food), night sweats, slight fever, headaches and generally feeling 'blah' | F | 21 | 5 days 500mg 3X day | 9/15/2014 | 1 | Sinus issues | Became constipated first 4 days. That broke but then I became very dizzy, stomach pain, extreme nausea and out of it, spacey feeling and severe headache. | F | 35 | 7 days 875mg | 9/11/2014 | 1 | Chest infection | EXTREME SWEATING. FELT RUNDOWN. NO MOTIVATION. | THE DEVIL’S DRUG - AMOXICILLIN! Have never previously used this medication. Chest infection complicated everything. I have asthma and was prescribed both Amoxicillin along with Prednisone. Took me almost eight (8) years to acclimate my body to the heat in the Southwest and ten (10) days to change my entire body chemistry! Taking this was bad, real bad. Sweat while sleeping or while outdoors at temps at just 65 degrees. Constantly waking up in a pool of sweat. Off medication and these same symptoms continue! | M | 60 | 10 days 500mg 3X day | 8/28/2014 | 3 | antibiotics, tooth extraction | This med was helpful for a while prepping for the tooth extraction, but has recently made me anxious, unable to sleep without feeling lightheaded/dizzy post-op | M | 27 | 5 days 500 3X day | 8/26/2014 | 1 | Can't sleep or eat... Worst meds I ever had in my life. Eyes feel they glued to my forehead. Wanna slap my wife cus she said its not that mad. Bs. Seen 5am last 4 days. | M | 43 | 3 weeks 500 | 8/23/2014 | 3 | Strep throat | Sweated through my pajamas first night (2 875mg pills were first dose). Sore throat felt much better after 24 hrs but at abt less than 2 days a weird rash showed up on my breast area. Started feeling "out of it" a few days in and one night couldn't fall asleep. Now at almost day 5 the rash has moved to my upper arms and legs. That dizzy weird feeling still remains. Now I'm connecting it to the side effects I've been reading here. My dermatologist suggested stopping meds and taking Zyrtec. Just not sure if I'm going on a diff antibiotic since I'm only at day 5 of 10... Glad my throat feels better though. | F | 44 | 10 days 875mg | 8/20/2014 | 4 | strep throat | Anxiety, stomach ache, nausea. .. other than that meds are working great after the 2nd day my strep throat has cleared. | F | 31 | 10 days 500 | 8/12/2014 | 2 | acute follicular tonsilitis | Alot of dizziness and lightheadedness and sleepy. | F | 21 | 6 days 2 grams a | 8/11/2014 | 1 | Middle ear infection | This is the worst medication to describe to any human. after taking I had bad nightmares couldn't sleep depress confuse couldn't concentrate vomiting loss of appetite tired headache severe sharp pain ECT ugh!!! | F | 25 | 10 days 500 | 8/10/2014 | 1 | sinus issues | anxiety and feeling like I was going to pass out...... tired and feel like I am coming out of my skin.......stomach pain | F | 49 | 2 days 500 2X day | 8/5/2014 | 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 | 2 | tooth extraction | Sinus headache, extreme tiredness I fell asleep on floor, slight fever, sore throat and pain with swollowing, chronic diarrhea, irritable, anxiety | F | 29 | 10 days 500×3 | 7/15/2014 |
