A member asked:
Is it possible to have an allergic reaction to amoxicillin 5 days after finishing the last dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This usually happens with the initial sensitization which may take about 10 days to manifest. The reaction from subsequent exposure will likely be much faster.
