A member asked:

My 9yr old took amoxicillin without food and he is complaining of pain in his stomach, i gave him gatorade and made him eat, but he still has the pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Amox: What was he taking meds for? Usually antibiotiocs cause children some abdominal pain but be sure he was properly diagnosed and the doc did not miss an abdominal diagnosis such as appendicitis.
