Prescribed 10 days of amoxicillin for bronchitis & ear infection. took 6 days got busy forgot to take been cpl days. should i take rest or be ok wout?

Finish the rest: Even at this point, finish the rest up. Bacteria cqn mutate and develop resistance if full course nor used. Even though your symmay be gone, rhose crafty little bacteria are trying to survive - if not this time, the next time. This can be thwarted by finishing the pills, even at this point. Don't let them have their way - finish those little buggers off!
