A member asked:
Is there a over-the-counter amoxicillin in the usa or a drug over the counter. that does the same thing?

No: Amoxicillin is a penicillin-type of antibiotic. It is by prescription only. There is no similar over-the-counter product in the U.S. If a person has a new illness that might need amoxicillin, then a visit to the doctor's office is typically needed. If a current prescription got lost, or if liquid amoxicillin got spilled, one can call the doctor for a refill, or sometimes HealthTap PRIME can help.
