Amoxicillin Taken With Liquids Other Than Water (Top voted first)
UpdatedI would appreciate any information about taking amoxicillin capsules with liquids such as fruit juices (especially citric), carbonated beverages, and other liquids like Gatorade. I was told that such liquids, which contain acids, can actually destroy the drug. This is an important question for me. Thanks.

You can take it with pretty much whatever you want, they just suggest water because that provides the fasted and easiest method of absorption.
Other beverages, such as Milk, Juice and etc. may delay the absorption.
Best to take with full glass of water there is delayed absorption if taken with food.
No. You CANNOT take amoxicillin with alcohol AT ALL. I repeat DO NOT
