Her E.R. doctor prescribed her amoxicillin 400mg/5 ml and she is supposed to take 10ml by mouth two times a day. Is this too much? She is only 40 lbs.

It should be given to her according to the doctor's instructions. At her age, it is prescribed by weight and severity of the infection being treated.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.
Is there anything else I can help with?
