A member asked:

I just took my second dose of ampicillin is it normal to still feel nauseous?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Common side effect: In general anytime you take antibiotics it is fairly common to have GI side effect from the medicine. Take probiotics (such as yogurt that has live and active cultures on the label.)
