A member asked:
I was diagnosed with strep throat and prescribed amoxicillin. i 've since developed diarrhea. could this be a side effect of the antibiotic?

Diarrhea side effect: Diarrhea is a side effect of taking antibiotics. The antibiotic changes the bacteria in the gut. Consider taking a probiotic such as yoghurt with active cultures for relief.
