Is it okay to take amoxicillin 500mg 3 times day with metronidazole 400mg 3 times a day for a dental abscess?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No problem: This drug combination is commonly used for certain infections. Your doctor or dentist would not have prescribed these antibiotics unless s/he felt the benefits outweigh any possible harms. Take them as directed. Good luck!
