Hello, Shelondra! How are you? I'm sorry that you are all ill.
The FDA lists Ampicillin as an antibiotic that is used to treat various types of bacterial infections, so it may help with strep, but you shouldn't take it, unless your doctor approves and confirms the presence of an infection.
Typical side effects are listed as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.
Is there anything else I can help with?
