Teva Amoxicillin What Does It Treat

Updated

I have a brand new prescription of teva-amoxicillin. I had a gum infection - within two pills the pain was gone and I have this bottle full.. I now have a temperature with which I believe is due to a chest infection. Will this medication help?

Amoxicillin is an antibiotic, which can be used to treat many different type of infections.

However, you should finish the full course of the medication, as prescribed, even if you start to feel better, before you have finished. The pain may have went away, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the infection cleared up. Thus, you could be sick now, because it was never fully treated and has now spread to other parts of your body.

In addition, only taking part of the prescription for an antibiotic creates the very real risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria.

This will also only treat infections, so it your fever is caused by something else, such as a cold or flu, it will not help with that.

Have you consulted your doctor?

Hey people. Amoxicillin is an antibiotic. It 'works' for INFECTIONS. It is not a pain medicine. It is not an anti-histamine. It is an ANTIBIOTIC.

It's hard to imagine how people can be so very uninformed, or just misinformed.

Nothing else. Infections only. It fights bacteria -- not pain, or allergic reactions.

It appears (by the comments here) that some doctors don't even know what the hell it is that they're doing. Please, if you've been prescribed Amoxicillin for anything but an infection, find a new doctor, for your own sake. Have a wonderful life. :)

Amoxicillin is only for an infection. Caused by cold/flu, a tooth surgery/toothache, healing of a surgical incision made during surgery taken to prevent bacteria from infecting to open incision the doctors made. Taken 1 or 2 x's daily take w/ water not w/ meals.

Amoxicillin is an antibiotic. PAIN treatment requires PAIN receptor intervention. NO, Amoxicillin WILL NOT RELIEVE your neck pain.

Depends on the STI, however, most are untreatable. You need to contact a doctor and discuss a treatment plan if there is one.
