A member asked:
Will amoxicillin prevent me from getting pregnant?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Amoxicillin which is an antibiotic will not prevent pregnancy. However, if one takes Amoxicillin while on birth control pills (bcp), one might become pregnant, as the antibiotic may make the bcp less effective . Use back-up barrier protection during this time.
