Common Questions and Answers about Amoxicillin for mouth infection

amoxil

Avatar n tn The doctor told me it was most likely an abscess and wrote me a prescription for 250 mg of Amoxicillin (3x a day) and told me to get to a dentist the next day because she assumed they were going to want to lance/drain the infection. I was able to see a dentist today and after an x-ray he determined extraction would be the best option for me since the decay extends under the bone.
Avatar n tn A tooth infection should be treated appropriately to prevent spread of infection. The usually preferred antibiotics are amoxicillin, clindamycin, penicillins and metrogyl.Azithromycin may raise serum methadone levels and/or increase the effects of methadone. It is advisable to contact a local health care provider. Do write to us again. Best luck and regards!
Avatar f tn Fungal problems in the mouth are treated with antifungal gels for oral use like Dartarin. Eating natural yogurt will also help. Make sure that you drink plenty of fluids and warm drinks, use pain relief medication as prescribed to relieve any pain. Gargling with salty water will also help. You can also purchase sprays from the pharmacist to numb the soreness in the throat.
Avatar f tn m fine with, but to add to dealing with the pain, the amoxicillin gave me a yeast infection! So here I am, 30 weeks pregnant, mouth still aching, and a yeast infection to top it all off. This has not been my week at all!
Avatar n tn m concerned this could be STD related, or a super strain of strep. is it possible to have a throat infection for months?
Avatar n tn My doctor just perscribed Amoxicillin to me for a bacterial infection in my leg. About a day later ( after taking 2 pills the previous day) my mouth feels dry and i have diahrea. I dont have trouble eating and no visible changes with my tongue. I've been taking the medication for about 5 days now and the symptoms are still continuing. Other than the dry mouth and diahrea, i feel fine.
Avatar n tn The dentist first prescribed amoxicillin for the infection. It has been over ten days, and I have pain and swelling in my lower cheek. Upon calling my dentist, I asked for a stronger antibotic (hence I have a tolerence of amoxicillin due to years of usage) he denied and let me know I needed to have tooth immediately extracted or the infection would spread. I do not have the funds currently this week to get it extracted. I have a prescription for amoxicillin that I have not used.

14987752 tn?1437741703 I had an abcessed tooth removed on Monday July 20. I am taking Amoxicillin 875 - 125. It is now Friday July 24. I can still hardly open my mouth. What should I do to help the process of allowing me to open my mouth and redice swelling? This discussion is related to <a href="/posts/Dental-Health/tooth-abscess/show/1085359">tooth abscess</a>.
Avatar f tn Four days after extraction I started feeling a salty taste in mouth. I went back to the dentist who diagnosed a gum infection to the side of the extraction site. Amoxicillin was prescribed as well as Peridex. The gum infection subsided and following a second visit, the dentist said the infection was now controlled. I have however, when I press the gum on the side of the extraction site a very bad pus smell coming up from the right nostril, other than that I do not have any other symptoms.
Avatar n tn I took him to the emergency room and they said it may be a reaction to a viral infection and prescribed amoxicillian for 10 days...It has been 6 days and still they are bleeding...What is wrong? He is too young for gum disease, right?
2095738 tn?1339825243 I'll be 33 weeks tomorrow and have had a double ear infection for over 2 weeks. I had them several times last year starting this time of year and always needed the super strength prescription with steroids. Because I'm pregnant, my doc is afraid to prescribe anything other than amoxicillin, but my ears have gotten so much worse. Has anyone been able to take anything different?
Avatar f tn My dentist prescribed me 500 mg of amoxicillin every 6 hours for a gum infection. It's been a few days now and Ifeel better and I want to resume my workout schedule. Is strenuous exercise contraindicated when taking amoxicillin?Also, is sun exposure a factor, and if so, how long after you complete the round of antibiotics should you wait before you are able to go back out in the sun?
Avatar f tn I am on amoxicillin for a sinuse infection and am experiencing jaw pain and can hardly open my mouth. It' hurts to eat and the pain is also in my ear and runs down my neck. What does this mean?
1418362 tn?1282203044 I am allergic to several molds, and have recently been prescribed Amoxicillin for a sinus infection caused by allergies. The mucus has cleared up from green to white, but my allergy symptoms are also worse and I am having severe diarhea which has left me weak, faint and exhausted. Because of sinus blockage, my CPAP machine used for severe sleep apnea has trouble delivering the air to my lungs, so I am haing difficuly sleeping.
Avatar m tn So I had Strep Throat over the weekend. Seen my doctor and he put me on Amoxicillin. My strep cleared up for the most part (the white crap all over my throat). Throat is still sore and have ulcers in a few places around my mouth. Not to worried about that, what does worry me is now my gums are killing me. I cannot even tough them with a brush. No blood as of yet from them. Is this the last of the infection retreating?
Avatar n tn I have an infected tooth which has to be extracted in the next few days but as of now I was prescribed 250 mg of Amoxicillin and have to take it 3 times a day. Since Wednesday I have taken seven doses and for the last few hours I've been experiencing and odd feeling in my mouth/on my tongue. I guess I'd say there's a slightly warm and numb feeling on my tongue. I wouldnt say it feels like a film is on my tongue, but maybe dry mouth? It's hard to describe.
Avatar m tn Considering the proximity to my wedding day on that Saturday, 3/11 and subsequent trip to Ireland on Sunday (and with the area too inflamed for immediate action) the endodontist put me on a giant prescription of amoxicillin and scheduled me for a root canal re-treatment 2 weeks from today on March 28th (when I'm back in Boston). Luckily, I'm in very little pain with this round of the infection.
Avatar m tn A week ago I had a severe pain on that tooth and I started taking Amoxicillin 500mg as my dentist prescribed in case of infection when he opened it to clean the roots.The next day the part next to my nose got swollen but the pain has gone.After 5 days on Amoxicillin the swell is not visible but I can feel it when I open my mouth. The thing that get me worried is that slight pressure feeling on my cheek and the upper eyelid.
Avatar m tn About a month ago I cracked a tooth. A week or so after the crack is swelled up pretty bad. I went to urgent care and the doctor games me 500mg of penicillin 4 times a day. The penicillin knocked out the swelling in a couple days and everything pretty much went back to normal. Last night the area swelled up again and even my law line started swelling. I could feel a large bump in my gum line which I'm guessing was the infection.
Avatar n tn I've been taking amoxicillin for chlamydia for 5 days now with no relief. It's still very painfull everytime I urinate. On day 5 now, I have an odd taste in my mouth all day. Is that normal when taking amoxicillin?
Avatar m tn The antibiotics do take a little while to remove/clean the infection. It would probably take about 3 or more days for the infection to start clearing up. But the main cause of the pain is probably the nerve which needs to be removed. The treatment of a root canal takes care of that. Hope that helps some and hope you both feel better.
Avatar n tn Sometimes, when an infection is occuring, and a medication is started for it, it is difficult to tell what is from the medication and what is from the infection itself. On the other hand, as you mention, some antibiotic allergies can be fatal. 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.
Avatar m tn She gave me a massage and afterwards put my penis in her mouth for about 15 -20 seconds. I had her remove it and then just touched her breasts and hand with my penis until I ejaculated. Afterwards I washed with a wash cloth and went home and showered. I also took 250mg of amoxicillin I had from a previous case of bronchitis hoping maybe that would do something if there was an exposure. Since then I've had loose stool that has been green / yellow and tingling throughout my penis.
Avatar f tn Which I am sceptical because when I took Amoxicillin it was 1 a day pill for a week and as soon as i took it the bacteria was going away. Now I've taken Clindamycin like 5 times, because it's 1 pill ever 6 hours. There is 28 pills in total. But I don't see the bacteria fading, like the Amoxicillin.
Avatar f tn And yesterday I had to have a tooth pulled, (My teeth seem to be falling apart.) And the dentist gave me amoxicillin for the infection and tramadol for the pain. Both say should not be taken in cases of liver problems. I am taking only half the dose he prescribed of the pain medication, and will stop it as soon as the pain stops. But the amoxicillin should be completely taken, to clear up the infection. What should I do? I don't want to cause any more damage to my liver!
