i can take amoxycillin... can i take cephalexin 500mg?? ## Hello, Libby! How are you? You can or cannot take Amoxicillin? Has your doctor prescribed the Cephalexin? ## @Libby - do you have any known medication allergies? Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic, whereas Cephalexin is a cephalosporin antibiotic. They are generally prescribed for similar types of bacterial infections (Cephalexin being given to those sensitive to penicillin antibiotics). I think you should be fine, just be sure to pay close attention to listed side effects or signs of an allergic reaction. When in doubt double check with your prescriber as well. Some possible side effects of the Cephalexin are: "Common adverse effects include digestive system upset such as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, indigestion, and abd...

My doctor has perscribed me Amoxycillin for a tooth infection which is caused by my wissdom tooth. How long until it will start to kick in? I have been taking panadol for 3 days now although i only started my dose of antibiotics yesterday and am keen to see an improvement as i am in quite a bit of pain. ## Amox is an antibiotic which treats the infection and not the pain. All though it may feel better once the infection clears it may not stop the pain. You should see your Dentist who can prescribe pain killers and give you guidance on how to treat the problem to permanently stop the pain.

full hip replacement booked for 7th september and i got infection in a rotten tooth, dentist prescribed amoxycillin . on completion of course , went back and asked for another x ray and letter for hospital to confirm the infection has gone. dentist says thats not posslble as infection still there until tooth extracted, The initial infection was around the periphery of the root. I was under the impression the amoxycillin would kill that infection. Now surgeon will not operate until i have letter from someone to say i have no infection .I am wondering if its worth going to another dentist. what would you reccomend in order for my operation to get underway as soon as possible?

Can I take Viagra and Amoxycillin at the same time? ## Hi Steve, How's it going? Based on my research, there are no drug interactions listed between Viagra and Amoxicillin. So in that regard it sounds like there shouldn't be any problem taking the two together. The only thing you may want to stay away from is large amounts of grapefruit while using Viagra, since it could potentially raise the levels of the drug in your body and/or delay the amount of time it takes to work. I hope this info helps!

Does this mean every 8 Hours were possible as someone was told it after breakfast, Lunch & tea being in my case 7.00am, 1.00pm and 7.00pm this gives you 6 hours between Breakfast and Lunch and 6 hours between lunch and Tea(dinner) & then 12 Hours between Tea and Breakfast Does this matter??? ## Hello, Jj! How are you? The dosing doesn't have to be precisely spaced. Every 8 hours when possible would be great, but if you just take them with meals, that would also be fine. This is an antibiotic that may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Amoxicillin details here. Is there anything else I can help with?

Does alcohol diminish the effectiveness of Amox Clav 875? ## Hi Rudy, According to a medical news article I read, "Drinking alcohol while taking these tablets does not usually cause any problems. However, some people who drink alcohol while taking antibiotics similar to amoxycillin and clavulanic acid have experienced adverse effects." Aside from the typical side effects, I would personally suggest taking it easy on the alcohol for the sole reason that alcohol can be hard on your liver. You want your body's immunity to be at full force when attacking the infection. My theory is if your body is working hard at metabolizing fatty foods, alcohol, or any other substances that aren't "clean", then it's not going to be nearly as efficient when it comes to fighting ...

strep throat ## Not sure if this antibiotic is in the 'cillin' family, or has any properties contained in amoxicillin, but my son had a reaction similar to the reaction he had with amoxycillin. BEWARE users. ## The drug name is actually Ceftin. This is a Cephalosporin class antibiotic. So not in the cillin family. However, since almost all antibiotics are distantly related, if you are allergic to one, then there is always a chance of having a reaction to one in another class. ## I have taken the antibiotic Cestin. Now I have a rash over most of my body. How long should it last? I had taken 7 pills of the 20 prescribed. ## My wife claims she was given Cestin for her cronic sinus.. Is that possible?

amoxycillin tablet suffering from cold ## A cold is caused by a virus, not an infection. Amoxicillin is an antibiotic that is used to treat infections, as such, it will not help with a cold. The best thing you can do for a cold is treat the symptoms, if you have congestion or fever and let it runs its course. Have you seen a doctor?

Hi I had a week of amoxycillin which didn't work on the abscess located deep under the root. Was then prescribed 5 days of Metronidazole which I started yesterday. My whole neck and chest had broken out in a rash which bleeds in places and I had such severe diahorrea yesterday evening that I nearly passed out with the tummy pain. This morning I passed a tiny tiny piece of BM followed by a large mucous piece of tissue/blood which I have never experienced in my life. Should I ask for a replacement antibiotic to treat the bacterial abscess or persevere with this treatment. My whole chin is also very red, with the jaw line sore to touch so it's obviously a very deep rooted serious infection. I think I should phone the dentist after the weekend to tell them of my reaction to see if t...

Update--my doctor prescribed azithromycin for my dental exam this month. Everything was fine and happy that I don't have to take amoxycillin since it made me sick. ## Glad your doctor prescribed something that worked better for you. There are actually some findings that show it isn't always necessary to take an antibiotic before a dental procedure, for some conditions. Are there any questions or comments?
