Amox Tr K Clav

I took one dose, 1 1/2 hrs later, vomiting, diaherra, sweating alot. Ended up in ER with dehydration, and hypothermia, temp @ 93 degrees. I'm guessing the sweating gave my hypothermia, since it's mid summer. Doc tried saying it was probably stomach flu. I got sick taking this med before, just not to this extreme. Apparently if my temp dropped more, I could of been in real trouble.

Sorry about what you've been through, that's very rough.

And I have to say that I am really not surprised. Though it isn't common, some people do react this way to some antibiotics. I had it happen from one that I took last year, though the worst occurred after 9 and half days of dosing, so it took several weeks for everything to clear up…..and yes, I had gone to the ER and the doctor there tried to tell me that what I was experiencing was only due to the infection, not a reaction to the antibiotic! It wasn't until I also broke out in severe hives and a skin rash that someone finally believed me and acknowledged that I was allergic to it.

This is a generic for Augmentin, just so you know what medication you want to tell the doctors and pharmacists you are allergic to and can't take.

Learn more Augmentin details here.

The reason I'm letting you know that is because such reactions are only known to get much worse, they can even end up being life threatening in the future, so you really do need to stay away from this antibiotic.

There are plenty of other options available on the market that will be much safer for you.

How are you feeling now?
