Needs evaluation...: Depending on the type of infection you are having and if it has been complicated now the decision on an alternative antibiotic treatment. You might be resistant to amoxicillin but depending on your condition and where the infection is located the choice of an alternative treatment in this case. Go to your nearest urgent care center or your doctor for evaluation.
