A member asked:

Prescribed amoxicillin for strep. rapid test showed very very faint line. took 1st dose @ 2 pm. can i take second dose now a@ 11 pm instead of 2 am?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds fine: People who are taking amoxicillin twice a day can take one capsule in the morning, and one in the evening or at bedtime, without being exactly 12 hours apart... but the goal is to be 10-14 hours apart. A person with strep throat usually takes her amoxicillin for 10 days.
