Should i take amoxicillin for salmonella?

No: It's not likely to help. I would see your doctor to get a proper prescription and confirm the diagnosis of salmonella.

NO: Salmonella can be resistance to amoxycillin also all salmonella does not need to treat.

Unless in blood: Unless the salmonella is in the bloodstream or severe enough to require admission to a hospital, antibiotics will not help. May make the illness last longer.
