Hi, I am taking 1000-62.5 amox-clav er. 2 pills in am and 2 pills in the pm. Is this too much to take? ## Hello, Carrie! How are you? Was that the dosage prescribed for you? Doctor's will sometimes prescribe higher amounts of an antibiotic, if an infection is particularly severe or hasn't responded to prior treatment. However, you may experience more severe side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Are you experiencing any side effects from it? Has the infection improved? ## Can you take amoxicillin 875mg for a sinus infection? I filled this prescription for tooth pain but never used it because I had a root canal.

I have a bad stye on my lower eyelid and it is causing my eye to become red. Can I use Amoxicillin-Clavulanic acid 875mg for my eye? Last time I had this I had periocular cellulitis and I have the same symptoms. I was given Keflex, but I have a prescription for this medication. ## It may help, but you should not take it, unless your medical provider approves, because antibiotics should not be overused. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, and diarrhea. Has any testing been done to see what's causing them? I used to get them, while married to my ex-husband, but I haven't gotten one in years. (I said this, so I will likely develop one soon. LOL) Anyway, I never thought to speak to my doctor and have them checked out.
