Had a root canal that became infected & wouldn't drain. Needed a lance & drain installed in upper gum, and was put on this RX. It worked well though gave me a flu type feeling.

Mastoiditis is a serious infection that affects the mastoid bone behind the ear which caused me to have a gran-mal seizer which I had never had before and I am 49 years old. Was given this medication for a 14 day period which I just finished today so not sure yet how well it worked but had bad case of diarrhea and nausea. I am wondering why I had the seizer, is this a diagnosis that would cause that? I am just very scared for it to happen again.

Was prescribed this for an infection in my gum after some oral surgery. I have never had issues with other antibiotics or regular amoxicillin but this is simply the worst. I am tired and have diarrhea that is comparable to when you're prepping for a colonoscopy. I've been eating lots of bread and rice to try to keep my poop bound but nothing seems to help. I cannot wait to finish this course of antibiotics. I'll never take this again. It's like every ounce of bacteria, both good and bad, are being wiped out of my body. On the other hand, the swelling in my gum went down after 2 days so I no longer look like a chipmunk. Very much hoping I can get my gut bacteria back in order after I finish the rest of my pills...

I was taking this medicine for a sinus infection. The side effects are giving me flu like symptoms. I feel feverish and nauseous. The worst part is that I’ve had a pounding headache for the entire day today. I’m discontinuing after 3 days.

Needed this medicine for a sinus infection, I read the side effects. It was prepared, but I wasn’t prepared. Every time I took my medication, maybe two hours later I had to go to the bathroom I had severe diarrhea. with that I got a rash, so I stopped taking the medication after four days.

I was on a ten day regime with this medication for an infected tooth. Two days after finishing my stomach started making gurgling noises, severe nausea set in and I had fever like symptoms. It has been a week and I still have these symptoms.

Prescription for an oral infection and a minor foot injury, which got infected. Cramps started the morning after the first dose. Severe diarrhea the afternoon of day 3. Symptoms felt like food poisoning. Taking with both Prebiotic & Prebiotic. Never had this reaction with Amoxicillin alone. After experiencing these side-effects and reading other reviews, I'm discontinuing talking the remainder of this Rx.

I’m a 25 female, not medical conditions. I take antibiotics with ease. I never get on these websites writing reviews ) always the one just reading them. But I HAD TO for this drug. The worst experience by far for me. Struggling with sinusitis, got prescribed these. The first two days just mild low cramps. I thought this would be a peace of cake. By day 3 I had severe headaches to the point I thought I was having a stroke. Literally in tears… I had to stop taking them. The headaches, dizziness & they make your anxiety 10x worse !!! Do not take this drug man. Read More Read Less

Horrid. I was prescribed this medication for bronchitis that turned into a sinus infection that just wouldn’t quit. It cleared up the infection eventually, but I didn’t feel like a real person the whole 10 days I was taking it. It made me so tired, nauseous, dizzy, couldn’t think clearly, felt like my brain was underwater. For me the diarrhea didn’t start until several days after I had stopped taking it, and only continued to get worse until I tried Culturelle meant for antibiotics. Meanwhile, it also caused a yeast infection that has not responded to two rounds of flucozanole. So, 6 weeks after finishing this mediation my digestive system is *nearly* back to normal and I’m still dealing with a yeast infection. Would not recommend. Read More Read Less

All it took was one. About one hour after taking the first pill I felt dizziness and light headed. About two hours later I felt sleepy. I knew that was the last one that I will take. My Dr. wanted me to take this medication for twenty one days! No way. In the garbage they went. Had an experience in the bathroom that night too.

I was prescribed this for a dog bite. It seemed to help ward off infection, but I have had severe diarrhea. Running to the bathroom frequently. It has been 3 months now and the diarrhea keeps coming back. My doctor recommended a certain probiotic, but it is t helping. Back to the doctor on Friday. I wish I had been told about the side effects.

I can say that along with Tustin DM it feels like it is clearing up my sinus infection. But, man what a horrible medicine. Diarrhea so bad, after the 20th time it’s just bile. Worst part is the leg cramps, just horrible. Will never take again

I could not get to a dentist for a toothache. I went to the ER because the pain radiantes . The doctor prescribed this medication for a tooth infection. This antibiotic worked very well for me. Pain subsided within hours. Must take with food to avoid stomach upset.

The pill itself is HUGE! It gave me lower GI issues even though I ate with food. Also made me nauseous. I hated this medication.
