I am taking Amox-clav 875 mg and also taking Omeprazole 20 mg.is there any interaction between these two drugs? Does omeprazole decreases the effectiness of antibiotic? Also taking prednisone 10mg.pls let me know. ## Hello, Mary! How are you? There are no interactions or problems listed, it's usually with the calcium containing antacids, since they can coat your stomach and prevent absorption of the antibiotics. However, if you wish to be sure, you should take them about 2 hours apart, unless your doctor instructs otherwise. This antibiotic may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

Also taking prednisone 10mg.pls let me know. ## Hello, Mary! How are you? No, I didn't find any interactions listed between them, but it's always best to double check this information to be certain. It's usually the antacids that contain calcium, such as Tums that can affect the absorption of some antibiotics. This antibiotic may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Are there any other comments or questions?

Does Teva make amoxicillin 500 without red or yellow dye or Titanium Dioxide in it? I have allergies to all these plus aspirin. ## Hello, Trish! How are you? There are several companies that manufactured Amoxicillin, so you may want to look beyond Teva. Several make it in tablets, without any dyes or TD in them. You should just inform your pharmacist of your allergies and they'll be able to help you find an appropriate one to take. This medication may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have a bad cold and I've been taking a left over script with 2 pills missing from a whole cycle. Amoxicillin 500mg. Is this helping me or hurting me?? ## Hello, Barbara! How are you? You should not be taking an antibiotic for a cold. Antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections and a cold is caused by a virus, thus antibiotics will do nothing to help. Additionally yes, you could be hurting yourself. Taking antibiotics when unnecessary creates the risk of developing antibiotic resistant bacteria, as does not completing the full course of antibiotic treatment, when they are prescribed to eradicate an infection. Is there anything else I can help with?

I got poked by a safety pin in my knuckle and it went into my finger pretty deep. I took it out and it immediately was swollen and blackish blue color. It looks like it punctured my vein or something or popped a blood vessel. I have a brand new prescription of amoxicillin, would this help or do you think this will just go away on its own? Also I'm 7 months pregnant, is amoxicillin safe to take with the baby? ## Amoxicillin is a class B drug which means it has been studied in animals to 10x what we give to people and no birth defects have been found. If you were breastfeeding, there would be some crossover as it is present in small amounts in breast milk, but it is one of the safest antibiotics for pregnant women on the market. ## However, it will not help with this type of issue.

What are the side effects or problems when using alcohol and dairy products with Amox Tr-K Clv 500-125 mg tabs? ## Hi Robert, Based on my research, there are no drug interactions listed between amoxicillin clavulanate potassium and the use of alcohol or dairy products. So in that regard you should be fine taking the two together in moderation. However, it is equally important to know that these types of drugs can effect each person differently, whereas potential side effects may still arise just from using the medication in and of itself. If you don't know how your body reacts to the combination alcohol and antibiotics, it may be wise to lessen your consumption of it for the duration of your treatment. Sometimes the use of alcohol can increase the drowsiness that is often associated...

I am a 63 year old woman. I had a torn cuticle on my 4th toe and did get a small leech, (from a local lake) at that site on my toe. About 2 weeks later that toe became infected and there was a red line going from my toe up to my ankle. After going to an emergency clinic, I was prescribed 10 days of Amoxicillin. The infected toe began to look better and the red line was going away until around the 8th day of treatment. It became very itchy and I did scratch it quite a bit. Now the red line is very wide, goes up past my ankle and I have blotches on my shin---it is all raised, swollen, patchy and very itchy. Today I went to a local clinic and the doctor prescribed ciprofloxacn, and has given me a strong cortisone cream to apply topically. I am very concerned that he is just grabbing at str...

Is it safe to use in pregnancy 8 month and one week ## Hi Anup, Based on my research, Moxclav (amoxicillin + clavulanic acid) is classified as a pregnancy category B drug by the FDA. This means that there have been "no proven risks associated with human use". The US National Library of Medicine also verifies its safety in one of their controlled studies, stating that "exposure to amoxicillin + clavulanic acid during pregnancy is unlikely to result in an increased risk of fetal malformations." Ref: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1884575 I hope this helps to answer your question!

I have a prescription for amoxicillin 875 mg twice a day for uti.. It upsets my stomach a bit so I wondered if I can break them in half and take them 4 times a day. Maybe it will help with my stomach irritation. ## Hello, Sixcharm! How are you? No, it would be best to take them as prescribed, but you can try taking them with a meal, rather than on an empty stomach. Just avoid dairy foods, which can sometimes affect the absorption of some medications. Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.
