Can someone please help me find an 500mg amoxicillin that does not have blue or green dye in the capsule? I would also prefer any amoxicillin capsule that is not red or pink or yellow. I have problems with dyes. It was suggested to me that I call Poison Control and they told me that Duramed makes an amoxicillin that is clear and buff in color - this would be acceptable although, no dye is preferred. Can you get me 500 mg amoxicillin that has no dye or is clear and buff in color? I have a refillable Rx for 200 capsules. Thank you, *S* ## Teva pharmaceuticals makes some 500 mg amoxicillin caps & tabs that do not appear to have the dyes in them: ## Thanks a lot! *S* ## Are there any pictures of amoxicillin from the U.K?

What is this pill for and what is the adult prescription? ## I'm guessing that the "Amox" is for Amoxicillin - with that in mind, the other parts of your description could indicate the compound Clavulanic Acid. A brand name of this combination is Augmentin. Can you provide any specific markings, color, and shape of the pills? This would allow me to give you the exact drug name. As for what I guessed above, you can read more about that medicine, and you will see that it is an antibiotic (for killing infection)... Hope this helps!

My almost 10 month old was on amoxicillin for 6 days and began to develop an allergic reaction - bad diarrhea and a red rash on her cheeks; I stopped giving it to her-her last dose was 2 days ago and she still has the diarrhea and rash-how long before it goes away? My doctor prescribed her a different antibiotic but we have not started it yet, I'm almost afraid to. ## talk to your doctor about it and really talk about, make him explain the new drug to you before you use it. ## Yes, definitely speak to your doctor, he should make sure from now on to prescribe a totally different class of antibiotic to prevent that from happening to your daughter again. If you aren't sure, ask the pharmacist when you go in to get the scrip filled. Tell then she is allergic to it, then if your doc ...

My dermatologist currently has me taking 500mg capsules of Amoxicillin twice daily as part of my acne treatment. I have been on it for about a year. We've tried other medications before this but i've always had problems with side effects. I've read that some antibiotics and medications can be harmful to the ears (otoxic). Can long-term Amoxicillin use be otoxic or harmful to my ears in any way. ## I don't think it can but, I'm not sure talk to your doctor about it. don't worry about it though! ## There can be many problems caused from taking an antibiotic for such a long period of time, including developing antibiotic resistant illnesses.

Our grandson has been on amoxicillen since Wednesday afternoon for a sore throat. His fever is still 100º and his throat is still sore and swollen. I think he should be feeling better by now. The step test was negative. His Dr is not open on Saturdays. Should we discontinue the Amoxicillin on the possibility that he is allergic to it? His Dad (our son) and our other two children were allergic to penicillin drugs. ## keep taking it till you see your doctor and if he still has a fever take him to the hospital since the doctor is not open but I'm not sure. tell your doctor about it first. I hope he feels better!

why dose amoxicillin cause difficulty breathing ## Because you are allergic to it. Stop taking it immediately and see your doctor. Do you not read the patient information you receive with your meds at the pharmacy? It says if you suffer these types of symptoms, stop taking it and call your doctor as it IS AN ALLERGIC REACTION!

white capsule, numbers 93 and 3109 on each end of capsule. This was dispensed as Amoxicillin, but does not look like the Amoxicillin I have had in the past. I am afraid I may have been given the wrong med. Taking it for sore throat. Have weakness and ringing in ears, maybe a side effect? Please help I am worried. ## Please remember that there are no guidelines in the Pharmaceutical industry that says all pills with the same ingredients have to look the same. There are many, many generic and name brand pill manufacturers and the way a pill looks, its color, size, and shape will vary for all of them.
