A member asked:
I took 2 nitetime equate cold and flu gel capsules with 2 500mg amoxicillin that i believe were expired 20 minutes later i felt really stoned & weird?

Antihistine: You felt that way because night time cold medications contain sedating antihistamines, not because the Amoxicillin was expired. But remember that for colds and flu, Amoxicillin is just a placebo, and should be avoided.
