I am getting diarrhea from amoxiclav , can i take pepto or immodium to help stop it or could that make it worse ?

Possibly: Ingesting apples, bananas and breads may also help naturally. Taking some probiotics can also replenish safe gut germs killed off by the drug. If nothing slows the process check back with your doc.
