What Is Amox Clav 875mg Tablets

isamox-clav 875 mg suitable for treating abcessed tooth? ## This is a generic for the antibiotic Augmentin, it can be used to treat various types of infections. It may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Augmentin details here. However, you shouldn't take it, unless your doctor or dentist has confirmed the presence of an infection and prescribed it to treat it. Doing otherwise creates the risk of your developing antibiotic resistant bacteria. Additionally, there has to be some underlying cause for a tooth to abscess, such as a deep cary and that must be corrected by your dentist, or the infection will just keep recurring. Is there anything else I can help with?

I was prescribed this for 8 days for cat bites on my hand. Twice a day. When should the swelling go down? ## Hello, Judy! How are you? The general rule for antibiotics is that if they're working for you, you should see no worsening of your condition, after taking them for a full 24 hours and improvement should be seen after a full 3 days. If it doesn't improve after that time, you should contact your doctor as you might require a different one.

My husband took his 1st dose of amox clav 875mg today at 2pm. He has been experiencing tightening of the chest on and off since then. Is this a reaction to the medication ## Hello, Kristine!

So, it could be due to an allergic reaction to it, or some other health issue. Has he contacted his doctor? ## Thank you for responding...

Hi, what if my dog took a piece of a tablet that fell to the floor? Is it poison to dogs? Thanks ## Based on my research, drug companies do actually make Amoxicillin for both cats and dogs. So in my opinion your dog should probably be ok in the long run without any worries. However if your dog doesn't seem to be handling it well, I would still encourage you to bring the dog to your local vet and have it checked out. I hope this helps offer at least some relief knowing that Amoxicillin is often prescribed by vets. ## Thank you! ## I was seeking information on amox clav 875 mg tabs, as they related to ingestion by my dog.

Hello, I (adult) was prescribed 875MG tablets of AMOX/CLAV - 1 tablet 2x a day for strep throat over a month ago but I am now better. My daughter who is 7 weighs 45 pounds has strep now and I have about 18 Augmenton pills left over. What is the dosage for her age? She has had to take pills in the past and I was going to break them up for the correct dosage but i'm not sure what that is. Her insurance does not kick in until the 1st of the month so if it possible just to give her my leftover meds it would save me a ton of money that I don't really have. If it is not possible then I would of course take her into the Dr. ## Hello, Beth! How is your daughter?
