A member asked:

I've been on amoxicillin 875mg tablets twice a day since wednesday 9/10/14 for an upper respiratory infection. can side effects be vaginal discharge?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes.: Women frequently get yeast infection secondary to antibiotic use. You might try drinking some acidophilus milk or eating some yogurt with a good acidophilus culture. If that is not working you might try some of the over-the-counter use preparations.
