A member asked:
I am taking amoxicillin and my boyfriend is allergic, will i be able to kiss him? i am taking the capsule version
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be safe: I've heard answers to this that say it should be fine to kiss - perhaps wait a few minutes and drink an extra glass of water after the capsule to clear your mouth. It's nice that you both care and that you like to kiss. Be well and happy!
