Amox Clav 875 Mg - Question
UpdatedWhat if I take another pill (875 mg) within six hours of taking my first pill - will that be harmful?

Doubtful, but it probably won't be any more helpful. Why would you want to do this?
Standard dosing protocol for taking this medication notes that you should be taking 875 mg orally every 12 hours for 7 to 10 days. That said I wouldn't suggest taking it sooner than later, as there will be an increased risk of severe side effects and other related symptoms.
Taking more than prescribed at a different time frame could also trigger bacteria to become more resistant to the medication.
Other side notes indicate that the every 12-hour dosage interval is associated with significantly less diarrhea than the every 8-hour dosage interval.
I hope this information helps!
