A member asked:

I am on amoxicillin (875 mgs) for a sinus infection and after taking it, i can't help but feel really tired. can the medication cause this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Fatigue : Any medications may have very mild or significant side effects. Serious side effects such as anemia, liver or kidney toxicity may in turn cause significant fatigue. Infection by itself can make you feel tired also. See your doctor for screening blood work if your fatigue symptoms persist or worsen dramatically
