Can I Use Amox Clav 875 125 For Ear Infection

My doctor told me I had an ear infection and prescribed Amox-Clav 875-125 since I work in the UAE ( I think she thinks I may have brought it over). I developed sinus drainage, extreme sore throat, coughing, and sinus infection symptoms about three days after getting to the states. Since taking the medicine, I have developed pains in my entire left foot. I have gout, and this feels like an expanded case of gout. My throat pain is gone, but now my eyes are blood-shot and matty, and my foot hurts. ## Hello, Marc! How are you doing? Has there been any change? Gout is not something that the FDA lists as a typical side effect of this medication, they usually include nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.

Three days into taking amox-clav for a sinus infection my ears started itching and being hot. The next day they were itchy again. I also had some episodes of lightheadedness. Felt like I could pass out. Are these side effects of the medicine? ## Dizziness/feeling lightheaded can be a normal side effect, according to FDA reports, you may also experience nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea. The reports also list skin itching and irritation as being normal. Has anything changed? How much longer will you be taking it? ## I have four more days. The itching on my ears has stopped.

Will this for medicine b effective for a thoat infection? ## This is the generic version of the antibiotic Augmentin, which is used to treat various types of infections.

That coupled with the fact that the presence of an infection hasn't been confirmed by a doctor creates the risk of your developing antibiotic resistant bacteria, which is something you've already put yourself at risk of, if you didn't finish the full co...
