A member asked:

I have a fever while taking my amoxicillin at the 7th day. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Talk to your doctor.: If you are still having fever it means that amoxicillin is not working because the germs causing infection have become resistant to amoxicillin. You need to let your doctor about this. He will have to decide what other antibiotic to prescribe.
