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.

Have chronic sinusitis so when I developed my annual fall sinus infection, the doctor put me on this. I don't recall taking it with previous infections, but I figured it's generic Augmentin, so it should be fine. I was wrong! In all the years I've dealt with sinus infections and antibiotics, I have never experienced an allergic reaction to any medication, until now. Aside from the stomach upset, I developed a mild burning sensation/funny taste in my mouth after the second day of use, and my face broke out in a horrible rash. Read More Read Less

I took the medicine for a day, no problem, still feeling sick. I awaken at 2 am to find out that there was BM all on me and by bed--now i'm weaker with diarrhea running like water. I called my doctor, I won't take any more unless the doctor sees the benefit--I thought I was going back to work today--quess again!

Although this medicine seemed to help my sinus condition, I had side effects that were scary. After taking it for 3 days, I began having flu-like symptoms. My body ached and my stomach & my head hurt. I was weak & had difficulty breathing. This lasted for about 30 hours. I stopped taking the medication and my condition improved.

Suffered from a stubborn, chronic, reddened, sore throat for a long time. Used natural, over-the counter measures and antibiotis in past which helped some, but not completely effective. After taking AMOX TR-K CLV 875-125 MG for 10 days my throat is finally normal and all soreness, soreness, swelling, and discomfort is gone. I praise and thank God that this medication was effective. Yet another prayer answered. AMEN! (EX 15:26; PS 103:3)

I have had a persistent cough for over 6 months and they have done so many CT scans on me it is not even funny. So they have no idea at this and they have put me on the other antibiotics that this is the only one they haven't tried, so I have to take 2 tabs a day for 30 days. Seems like over kill, but you can't argue with the VA.

after just a few short days of taking this medication the side effects were more painful than the original infection in my stomac. i have never been allergic to any drugs or foods but this one was so large it was nearly immpossible to take it broke me out in small red rashes that iched and made my ankles swell up so bad that i couldnt even walk without assistance and that feels pathetic im only 20 years old i would definatly not recomend anyone to take this medication due to severe side effects and ultimately more pain than the original illness.Read More Read Less

I got an infection in my tooth/gums. I have no health insurance so I did the research and decided to take some amoxicilin prescribed for my dad. Swelling and pain reduced significantly in tooth and lymph node within 3 days. Day 7 is here an it's still infected and a little swollen but it's going away.

On the medication 8 days and the morning of the 8th day a rash developed spreading all over my body by the end of the day and was worse the next morning. It got rid of my strep, so i'm thankful, but i've stopped the medicine so hopefully this rash will start to go away.
