Hello! i took amoxicillin(500mgx2) for 10 days for an ulcer and there are a lot of mucus in my stool. and this mucus thing is worrying me. please help?

Mucus in stool: Amoxicillin by itself is not used to treat stomach ulcers. All antibiotics can lead to diarrhea which may be manifest by mucus. Go back to your prescribing physician if this persists. May need testing for C difficile colitis.
