Question 1

i had 5 teeth pulled they gave me amoxicillin. since taking it i now have 12 mouth ulcers. could this be an allergic reaction?

Accepted Answer

Doesn't : sound like it. Penicillin allergy is usually a rash and swelling. Just to be sure,  see your dentist and have it checked.

Question 2

could a lip blister be an allergic  reaction to amoxicillin?

Accepted Answer

Probably not: If you had an allergic reaction to something it would probably be more than a single blister.  Allergic reactions create all kinds of signs...Like overall bumps on your body, tongue swelling or worst of all...Anaphylactic reaction which could be deadly.  If you think you are allergic to amoxicillin...Put it down on your health history for the doctor.  And if you wish go to an allergist for testing.

Question 3

i had an abscess over a molar and got tooth extracted + 10 days of amoxicillin.  abscess better but still there..how long to heal completely?

Accepted Answer

long time healing: The removal of the tooth
and the ab's should have 
eliminated the problem
go back to the dentist who pulled the tooth
it may be from another tooth in the same area that was not as bad as the pulled tooth.

Question 4

29 yr. old male with history of hypothyroid & has severe head cold and chest congestion since dec. muscle weakness and fatigue. is amoxil (amoxicillin) best route?

Accepted Answer

See doctor: Your head and chest cold should have nothing to do with your hypothyroidism.  If you have had symptoms for over a month, you need to see a doctor to find out why.

Question 5

can amoxiciilin cause redness and burning in back of mouth/ mouth?

Accepted Answer

Yes: May be an allergic reaction.  Why are you taking it?  Would call the doctor who prescribed it and discuss it be fore taking more.

Question 6

does amoxicillin make the infection in your tooth release a dishcharge in your mouth?

Accepted Answer

No : No it is a broad spectrum antibiotic effective against most gram positive bacteria in the head and neck area of the body.  It will reduce and kill the bugs causing a tooth infection usually an abscess under the bone and gum tissue.

Question 7

i got a prescription for amoxicillin. what does take two capsules by mouth twice a day mean? only twice a day or two at one time and two later in the day?

Accepted Answer

: I would interpret it to mean 2 tablets, 2 x a day. Or 4 pills a day where I come from. 
 Did they give you enough?  Then you should be able to double check.

Question 8

i was prescribed amoxicillin 500mg capsules to take three times a day for an infection in my mouth? i was wondering can i take them all at once???

Accepted Answer

No: Frequency of medications are based on their half life and safety profile. Not a good idea and will not be efficient

Question 9

root canal 5days ago. now bloody taste in mouth. started  amoxicillin before root canal 250mg 3x day for 8 days. possible infection still present?

Accepted Answer

Bloody Taste: There can be many reasons for the coppery "bloody" taste in your mouth, and may or may not be related to your root canal treatment. The only way to determine the cause is to return to the General Dentist or Specialist Endodontist who did your treatment for a reevaluation.

Question 10

i'm on day 4 of amoxicillin for extracted tooth.developed horrible bitter taste in mouth.food tastes bitter.is it from antibiotic?will it go away?

Accepted Answer

IDK: It would be prudent to ask the dentist who is actually treating you and knows your medical and dental history, the exact circumstances of your treatment and who can evaluate it  (rather than dentists on the internet sight unseen). Do you really want us just to venture a guess?
