Does alcohol diminish the effectiveness of Amox Clav 875? ## Hi Rudy, According to a medical news article I read, "Drinking alcohol while taking these tablets does not usually cause any problems. However, some people who drink alcohol while taking antibiotics similar to amoxycillin and clavulanic acid have experienced adverse effects." Aside from the typical side effects, I would personally suggest taking it easy on the alcohol for the sole reason that alcohol can be hard on your liver. You want your body's immunity to be at full force when attacking the infection. My theory is if your body is working hard at metabolizing fatty foods, alcohol, or any other substances that aren't "clean", then it's not going to be nearly as efficient when it comes to fighting ...

Amox clav was prescribed for the treatment of my sinus and clogged nose. After the second day I got better but it brought out a pimple like boil on my forehead, and it hurts when touched. Is this normal? Can this medication be used for the treatment of sti's? Also, can I drink moderate alcohol while using this medicine? ## Hello, Maxvinz! How are you? No, it is most likely just a pimple, they happen sometimes. As to using it to treat STI's, that depends on which STI is being treated, some require different antibiotics and some cannot be cured. Drinking alcohol, while taking it, may worsen the side effects, according to the FDA, so you may experience more nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness than usual, thus it would be best to avoid it. Is there anything else I can help with?
