A member asked:
Is it possible that amoxicillin is constipating my 9mnth old? she hasnt had a bowel movement since the night we started the antibiotic.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: It would be very very unusual for Amoxicillin to produce constipation. Far more likely to cause diarrhea. This may be due to dietary issues, but if it continues would have her see a pediatrician and be evaluated. Hope she is better soon.
