A member asked:
Is it possible for amoxicillin to cause diarriea? is it good for curing an ear infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: Common side effect for antibiotics. Taking them with food will help minimize this effect. Taking probiotics and eating yogurt helps replace normal flora that will help in minimizing diarrhea, or getting over it quicker. Ear infections have different causes and categories, some need drops, some need oral antibiotics, and even some need specific antibiotics. See your doctor.
