Contact her dr: she may have a problem tolerating the amoxicillin--or it may be a viral infection with vomiting as a symptom.throwing up is not ok--call her doctor.

Nope: She is sensitive to this antibiotic and although stomach upset and vomiting is common with amoxicillin, this is not a good choice for her. Call her doctor for a change and stop giving her the amoxicillin.
