Common Questions and Answers about Amoxicillin and reaction

amoxil

Avatar f tn This sounds like it has 100% to do with the Amoxicillin, and not Mono combined with Amoxicillin and so forth. Amoxicillin can cause joint pain although this is not a common side effect, but can occur and should NOT be permanent, but temporary. If this hasn't subsided, this definitely needs to be further investigated by your physician.
Avatar n tn I'm taking amoxicillin and my cheeks are very red, like i'm sunburnt, and very hot. It's only on my cheeks no where else on my face or body. I've been givien this same medicine many times and have never had this reaction, The only other thing I can think about is I was given a corticosteroid shot and nasal spray called Fluticasone. It's not shown as a side effect of the nasal spray, but could it be from one of these other medicines. Should I call my pharmacist or doctor?
Avatar f tn There is no connection between amoxicillin and Hepatitis C. Sorry you relapsed. What treatment were you on?
Avatar f tn What was the medication , it does sound like hives and may indeed have been a reaction to the meds or you maybe allergic to something else , new underwear , new creams ,if it continues its would be best to have it checked out with the Doctor .
Avatar n tn My mom did tell me I used to take amoxicillin when I was a kid and never had any reactions (although I did develop a skin reaction to a Sulpha drug in the past) My last dose was at 3 this afternoon and I started noticing this feeling in my mouth around 8pm. It's not midnight and I still feel it. I'm due for another dose this evening (should have taken it already) but I'm a little worried in case it's a reaction..
Avatar f tn Is this because I did not take the entire RX or is it a possible reaction? Showering seems to make them worse, they become dark red and seem to mulitply in seconds, then hours later they are pink and seem to have less of them. Dr only seems to give meds for itching when they don't itch! How do I get rid of this?!?!?!
Avatar f tn I took her to the doctor again today (1 week later) and they told me that she has erytherma multiforme caused from the amoxicillin. Can anyone tell me if the amoxicillin was the cause to this and how long it will last? Do you think it could be something else?
Avatar m tn An allergic reaction to amoxicillin (and then all penicillin based meds would be included) is sudden and intense and can quickly become life threatening. Rash is listed as a side effect to this antibiotic. Call the doctor but it is highly unlikely that it is an allergic reaction but a side effect. And it doesn't mean your child will get it every time they take amoxicillin or drugs of the penicillin class. good luck!!
Avatar m tn I had difficulty figuring out that I was having an allergic reaction to the amoxicillin because many of the symptoms (abdominal pain and swollen glands) were similar to the original infection and the more classis symptoms (tching and hives) didn't appear until after I had finished my third prescription. My question? Is amoxicillin less effective in fighting an infection if you are allergic to the antibiotic? If so, would it be completely useless or still have some of the desired effect?
Avatar n tn I gave my cat amoxicillin and she started drooling instantly. I was foamy and clear and lasted for about 2 minutes. Is this normal or is it an allergic reaction?
Avatar n tn Discussion of your concerns with your physician is recommended, including whether or not to continue the antibiotic and whether or not you are having signs of allergy to amoxicillin. Thank you for this opportunity to answer your questions, I hope you find the information I have provided useful, good luck.
Avatar f tn Even tho its on the outside im just cautious on what i do/take cuz we tried so long to have this bby
666921 tn?1254990618 I just started my amoxicillin so I can't say anything about all symptoms yet. I do know that the LLMD prescribed me Kapidex and it may one of the reasons I am not having heartburn. Usually these medicines give me bad gastric problems, but so far it's been not great, but not painful either. You may want to ask if you can get Kapidex.
Avatar f tn My dentist prescribed antibiotics for the tooth extraction. I told him I am on interferon and he called my GI and checked with him first. I don't think there should be any issues. Both your dentist and doctor should know all your current medications and any invasive dental procedure you are planning.
1470662 tn?1287789856 Hi Geminigirl1963, Thank you much for the prompt feedback. I had fever about a week ago, that's why I went to see my doctor. He told me I didn't have a sore throat or ear infection but diagnosed me with acute sinusitis (after looking into my nose with a medical instrument). I noticed that amoxicillin makes my skin itch just a tab bit...not sure it that's an allergic reaction or just a side effect of the antibiotic. Thanks again!
Avatar m tn Around 23yr old, developed small reaction to red wine and some beer (specifically Hefeweizen). Reaction has become severe over the years and now includes nearly all wines and beers (even bud light) and the reaction is more severe. I have no other food reactions that I know of. Reaction description: difficulty swallowing, breathing, shortness of breath, Benadryl clears it up completely and quickly. Tried a sip of wine during my honeymoon in Greece last month to test the reaction.
Avatar f tn My 8 month old was given a 10 days course of amoxicillin for an ear infection. We finished the antibiotic and 2 days later, my son started breaking out in hives. He has been doing this for 36 hours now. They come and go, they will appear in one area, disappear, then appear in another. The on-call nurse (it's the weekend) told us he probably has a virus, treat it with benadryl every 6 hours and the hives should go away in 2-3 days.
Business woman2 My Niece broke out in a rash all over looked like chicken pox we took her to the dr she had been on Amoxicillian for an ear infection for 6 days and had taken it before the dr said it was an allergic reaction to the amoxicillin or a virius to stop giving the amoxicillin to her and give her benyadell we did the rash got a little better but broke out in other places and now she has pain in her joints all over and swelling in her joints Is this part of the allergic reaction or is something els
Avatar m tn I received unprotected oral sex and protected intercourse from a woman. I've read numerous sites and the more you read, more confusing it is. I'm not sure if I have received a STD/STI from fellatio or if it is a reaction to the condom lubricant. The day after I received oral sex from her, the tip of my penis had a full feeling. Wasn't sure what to thing at first, it had only been one day. On about the 4th day, the feeling is still there so I'm starting to panic a little.
Avatar m tn Hello dear and welcome to the medhelp forum. You have most probably suffered from an acute allergic reaction to the consumption of the penicillin antibiotic. Your doctor is right in saying that you need not become paranoid about it. My only concern is that your physician should rule out steven johnsons syndrome which is due to an immune system disorder mostly secondary to drugs like penicillin and sulphonamides. Clinical features are fever, sore throat, skin and mucosal lesions.
Avatar n tn Sorry to hear about this! Does your MD know you are taking the sleep meds? If he doesn't, then he wouldn't know if the itching is caused by conflicting meds. You could ask your pharmacist, but s/he might just tell you to ask your MD anyway. It's worth finding out to avoid an unwanted drug interaction.
Avatar m tn One of my sons had take amoxicillin for 7 years and then developed hives. He no longer can take penicillin. I took a blood pressure med. lisonoprol for ten years and then developed a rare side effect, horrible coughing.
Avatar n tn As you you have been given cephalexin which is a Cephalosporin and can also cause such allergic reaction (cross reactivity or allergy). The allergic reaction keeps on worsening unless the offending drug is discontinued.
Avatar f tn Was diagnosed aged 20 with mitral valve prolapse and mild regurgitation..25 years later most echos show no sign of regurgitation though..Can I take amoxicillin afterwards??
Avatar n tn Hi good people, My niece has a problem for the past one week of waking up when the lips and eye lids (similar to eye bags) are swollen and when she takes cetrizine and diclofenac,the inflammation goes away. She is 29 years and tells me she had the same problem about 10 years ago and cleared .
Avatar n tn t be a reaction the first time, and each subsequent exposure increases the risk of reaction and severity. It sounds like an allergic response, so it would be wise to avoid the penicillins, and I would also ask for an allergy referral, because if she has a true allergy to an antibiotic, she should have a medic alert bracelet. If you are seeing swelling in the lips, it is possible that she could have an anaphylactic reaction in the future.
Avatar f tn but my hands are still itching like crazy took a benydryl but all that did was make me sleepy and stopped taking the amoxicillin but its barely the first day that i stopped taking it. i will see how it is tomorrow. dont know what to put on my hands to stop the itching its crazy.!!
Avatar f tn It does sound as if she is still having a reaction to the amoxicillin including the vomiting, it may be best and for peace of mind to speak to your pediatrician again, I am assuming that you discontinued the med.
