Amoxicillin Mixed With Amox Tr-k Clv

I was prescribed 1000 mg amoxicillin for a badly infected finger. The pharmacist didn't have the exact drug so gave me amox tr-k clv 500 mg plus amoxicillin 500 mg to take together. The bottle for amoxicillin also says augmentin 500 mg. Within an hour of taking the first dosage, I became violently ill. I immediately discontinued both products but remained violently ill for over 18 hours, vomiting at intervals of no more than 30 minutes for the entire time. 15 days later, I still feel weak and listless. Any idea what caused this?

Hello, Greg! How are you?

Have you ever taken Amoxicillin before? It seems like either it, or the clavulanic acid in the Augmentin disagrees with you. I experienced similar issues several years ago, just before the rash and hives broke out 9 days into my course of treatment with Bactrim and we realized it was all various manifestations of an allergic reaction. And yes, it did take several weeks for all the symptoms to go away and for me to finally feel normal, again.

As reported by the FDA, nausea and vomiting can be normal side effects of this medication, but it's not usually that severe.

Have you informed your doctor? You may need to refrain from taking this in the future.
