    just finished a round of amox, and i had the absolute worst headache i have ever had, for the entire time. i ended the treatment 2 days ago, and the headache just went away. i had to call off work for the last 4 days, something i haven't done in 3 years. headaches when they happen, are very real. it was like a pressure that i couldn't relieve. it flared up in waves, and became absolutely debilitating. i lost my balance and fell over numerous times.

      You better now? I experienced similar side effects. Off them now for a day, it's getting a little better. How are you doing now?

      Did you completed the course? I just took my medication for 2 days, but felt sooo lightheaded and I fear I might fall. Still have 5 more days to go.

    These drug reaction videos are excellent! I got "floxed" by cipro last November, that nearly killed me, if I wasn't a doctor, I'd be permenantly disabled or worse. Keep up the good work Dr.Sal. Another dangerous antibx is metronidazole, especially if your vit B1 stores are minimal.

    Dentist prescribed a 5-day treatment with Amoxicillin/Acid Clavulanic 875/125 for an abscess. My chest, back, face and my "private" area got itchy and red, also my face swollen up a little and around my eye. I stopped taking it immediately and called my doctor. I had no nausea or hives or swollen tongue - just red skin with itchiness and a little swelling in the face and around my right eye.

      I'm not a doctor. I can say you maybe got serious thrush,candida....those antibiotics (I unfortunately go on them at least 3 times a year for bronchitis) cos I have COPD and asthma too.
      Please check me! But immediately use yogurt in your mouth (must be plain white,non sweet,no flavours) it's prebiotic and take Vit B co. This combats some negative effects of these antibiotics.

    I’ve taken amoxicillin twice. Don’t remember first time. Second time I remember spazzing on my aunt cuz I got a rash and my throat swelled up. Spent a day in the hospital. I always mention I am allergic to be safe. Would you recommend I get an allergy test? I’m not a doctor and never had an issue with penicillin

    i just finished taking 500mg 3 times daily for 7 days for a tooth issue. during the course of the antibiotic it gave me super bad sewer farts, like i had to sleep in the other room because my wife would gag in bed when i threw down with several dutch ovens. i didnt have diarrhea and somewhat regular poops. i had some anxiety and minor headaches, slept ok for the most part and was able to exercise and function normally. Im about 1.5 days off of it and I feel like Im getting worse side effects now than when i was on it. Like i'm getting Withdrawls. Im SUPER Healthy and don't take drugs or booze. I am a former user and have additions in the past. SO i'm wondering if I am having some sort of physical Withdrawls from not taking it like you would a narcotic. I'm having almost a migraine like pressure in the frontal lobe area above both eye sockets and sort of dry itchy eyes. I feel like i have light sensitivity and motion sensitivity if im watching a video on youtube. I feel anxious and panicky about it and also more fatigued now than when i was on it. anyone have anything similar, where you feel worse shortly after stopping than during???
