Hi, I had Titus about six months ago and they gave me a Z pack so it didn't work in my lungs. I have been messed up for a while now. And I just stopped smoking. I was wondering if I could use my old bottle as it still has the 20 in it and has been opened but there is a little thing in there to make them last longer and stay fresh. It's says discard after 9/4/2016. I was really hoping to use these due to financial reasons. I read they will lose potency after 18 months. Am I ok? Thank you very much.

Okay I just started this today at 3:30pm 06-06-2014. The first dose gave me really bad stomach pains that went away after awhile. Then 8 hours later I take it again as instructed at 11:30pm. It went down fine, no stomach pains, so I drank a glass of water after I laid down and fell asleep then I found myself wide awake at 12:50 throwing up.

Can Using Amox K Clav 500 Mg 2 tablets 2 x a day for 5 days all of a sudden give you a fever of 101 on the 5th day of using it? ## A fever can be a side effect of this antibiotic in some people that take it, or it could also be from the infection you're being treated for, with the medication. It generally does take several days for side effects to show up, as the medication accumulates in your body. Has it improved any? If not, please contact your doctor, as it may not be working and the infection may be worsening.
