Amox Clav For An Ear Infection

Updated November 19, 2018

I was prescribed this 4 days ago for a horrible ear infection brought on by a sinus infection, and no relief. I am wondering if it's not bacterial and maybe should be prescribed something different to relieve the pressure and pain?

Amoxicillin with Clavulanic Acid, the active ingredients in Augmentin, is an antibiotic that is used to treat certain types of infections.

However, it can take 5 to 7 days to reach its full effect and will not work as a pain reliever.

And, as with any medication, it doesn't always work for everyone that tries it, so if your pain, or infection have not improved, you should contact your doctor.

Are there any other questions or comments?
