Amoxicillin causing my symptoms? 500 mg 3x/day- on day 4 now. have high bp 140/90 (no history), swelling throat. have taken amox. many times in past.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergic reaction: The more times you take a drug like amoxicillin, the greater chance you will develop a drug allergy. Throat swelling or difficulty breathing need to be evaluated in an ER ASAP. Stop the amox and get this checked out!
