No and no.

Amoxicillin is an antibiotic and, as such, it can actually cause a yeast infection, it will not clear one up. It is only effective for bacterial infections and a yeast infection is caused by fungal growth.

Learn more Augmentin information here.

And once expired, it begins to lose effectiveness and should not be used, because it increases the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria.

If you have a yeast infection, you should see your doctor for confirmation and/or look into a medication that's formulated to eradicate them, such as Monistat.

Is there anything else I can help with?
