I currently have an acute sinus infection and was prescribed 875 mg of amoxicillin. I have hyperthyroidism and graves disease. Taking this twice a day is hard on my stomach. Could I cut them in half and take a 1/2 pill twice a day and it still be effective on my acute sinus infection?

I have been on Amox tr-k clav tabs (875-125) for a little over a week, now my tongue is red and raw. Is this a side effect?

I think I have hidradenitis suppurativa. I have three different diagnoses by three different doctors, all saying I have a different skin disease. Will "amc 875/125" be useful? My last dr. gave me this prescription. What is it used for? I took penicillin for three months and it did not touch it but slowed it down. Thanks for any help.

Can I take both Amox/Clav 875/125 and Amoxicillin 250? I was just prescribed both of these for a sinus infection so I'm wondering if it's safe to take both since Amox/Clav also has Amoxicillin?

Hi, my child was given a prescription of AMOX-CLAV 400-57. She took her first dose around 2:30 since we went mid-day. Can she take another dose around 9 tonight? It's a 2x a day script. She is 7 and weighs 57lbs.

My daughter was prescribed this antibiotic (Amox-clav 875-125 mg) for a sinus infection and was given a 10 day course. She forgot that it causes her to have acid reflux that stays long after the medicine is taken. She has only taken 6 pills. What consequences would be expected if she stops the pills now?

Hi. I have the same symptoms. Would you care to describe how was your dizziness, please. I am going crazy with it. I had a CT and they said I have sinus infection. I am afraid I have something else. Did you get better?

I just got the prescription today - 875/125 Amox-Clav. I went to the doctor for a tender nodule on my upper neck, close to my jaw. He said that it might be an inflamed cyst. Will let you all know how I feel in a few days.

I went to the doctor the other week for pink eye, and I had also had a rough cold for a week or two. I was only there to get eye drops, but the doc insisted that I had a sinus infection as well, and prescribed me 875mg amox-clav tablets to be taken twice a day. I weigh just under 110 lbs. As soon as I started taking the tablets, I was nauseous constantly, throwing up, and was always rushing to the bathroom for diarrhea. Four days later I developed a yeast infection (I have no history of getting them), which I read can be a side effect. Overall, this drug has been an awful experience for me,

With the meds being that old they will not hurt you..they just will not be effective..like a soda being left open and loosing its fizz.

you should not use antibiotics for the common cold, they only work on bactireal infections.

I had the same problem. I was told it was a sinus infection. It ended up being shingles.

After you finish your course of Amox-Clav, start daily nasal saline irrigation (or start it now). My ENT had me do this after my last bad sinus infection and it has made a world of difference. I use the blue bulb syringe from a Murine Ear Wax Removal package instead of a Netti pot. (Hate them). Just be sure you use distilled water to mix the saline. You can use sea-salt or table salt (non-iodized, trust me on this one) or buy the premixed saline packets at the drug store (Walgreens carrys them) with baking soda to buffer the saline. Just be faithful with it. Regular flu vaccinations help and I haven't had a cold or sinus infection for two years.

I am 34 weeks pregnant and was prescribed AMOX/CLAV 875mg. I had a severe cough, could barely breathe and had no voice. Doc diagnosed me with bronchitis. It's been 4 days I still have the cough (yellow mucus) stuffy nose and my voice is not clear. It seems to me like it isn't working but I wasn't sure how long it should take to start helping.

Ahh everyone on here with sinus and ear stuff.I had a anal fissure (a hole in the side of the hole haha).I know ,embarrasing and ridiculess,thanks god,anyway i took this last year and it healed and sealed up the fissure but it made me feel REALLY bad and then halfway in started making my elbows and hands ITCH!I am looking here for it to say somewhere that the itching was an allergic reaction or was it trying to give me nerve damage like the side effects say on this different antibiotic im taking called metronidazole for a reammergence of the chronic infection(externally at least) now.Im doing better with this stuff but i really feel extra weekened when i get home from driving but i got stress problems to go with it.(you might have stress problems too if your heart skipped a lot)Hope this helps someone.
