User Reviews for Augmentin oral

Over the past four yearsm and after an initial VERY BAD outbreak of cellulitis (entire lower leg blistered and skin sloughed off) I have had recurrent outbreaks. For these Augmentin has been prescribed and it works every time and quite quickly. No side effects except the usual tiredness I associate with ANY antibiotic prescription. I will continue to use this medication as long as it works.

Within 5 minutes of taking this medication my son turned cherry red, broke out in hives, started coughing so vigorously that he vomitted, shaking, itching... We ended up in the ER. He has never had a problem with amoxicillin but this totally was a severe allergic reaction.

I had stomach cramps, bloating, and some diarhhea while taking this. Had to switch to another drug. I will NEVER again let any Dr. prescribe this drug!!

In New Zealand Augmentin is prescribed for many infections as an anti-biotic. I don't know how effective it was for me in the past for my infection - it gave me thrush. I refuse to take it now and doctors won't prescribe it to me. It is a common side-effect in many women I know.

I'm still on the medication, and I'm not sure. Has there been a case where someone would break out into really bad red looking welts, almost borderline purplish, or even really deep crimson.

Seemed to work well but typical diarreha as with any anti-biotic and also did experience headache and general fatigue and alomost a dizzyness after taking and my legs were sore like I had ran or exercised.

i took the liquid form after eating a teaspoon of something and never had any problems

I have been taking this medication for a sinus infection, and I am still having all my symptoms and have ear aches and white nodules in my throat.

I had a chest cold. The doc perscribed this awful medicine. 2x a day for ten days. Day 9 really bad runs ans horrible stomach cramps. day 15 still BAD cramps. Another review was right about having to wear a diaper!!

I have taken this a few time's. The last time i am taken it i feel tired and out of it. Only reason i use it because it does work but I wouldn't use it again after this. I keep getting bronchitis to. Anyone else have that problem?

Extremely satisfied with how this drug is able to make me feel. Sinus discomfort was eliminated and overall general health improved significantly.

After two days bowel upset

I'm on day 6ish. The med did seem to start clearing up the infection relatively quickly, though not entirely. Almost immediately a constant headache set in that I had to keep on top of with tylenol or I couldn't function. I never had a fever (sometimes I thought I did), but I did have occasional diarrhea (some pretty interesting abdominal noises), and this morning I found the upper arm/upper leg rash (which is why I started researching side effects). It's working, but I'd forgotten all the joys of antibiotics.Read More Read Less

I took this drug for a sinus infection. I would NEVER take it again. 1 month after taking it I'm still seeing the side-effects (diarrea). I took it with food and as like the other people that wrote comments wanted to stick it out to get rid of my infection. I should have changed drugs earlier. If your Dr. prescribes this, I would ask him to change.

This med was my 2nd antibiotic and it was working for I had been suffering for 3 weeks already but you need to eat alot of food with it and drink plenty of water. The diarrhea started on the 3rd day. I felt really tired and run down while on it. I probably should have gotten another med but I toughed it out I don't want to end up resistance to antibiotics. I will not take this med again that's for sure.

I had 2 very deep cat bite wounds on my hand, took this drug and got no better after 2 and a half days of 2 times a day dose. Had to go back to doctor, got a shot of another drug and was suggested to have surgery but chose not to. After the first 10 days, 2 times a day of Augment. I waited 5 days and the infection started to flair up again. Got another 14 days worth and am on my 7th day. It upsets my whole digestive system with some nausea and abdominal cramps. Not so much on the first 10 days, but quite a bit on this 2nd round. The hand is healing with a large bump the size of a pea at the deepest bite site. At its worst, the 2nd day, I had a fever, extremely swollen hand and redness going up towards my elbow. I have only taken antibiotics twice in 30 years.Read More Read Less

I was advised to give my 18 year old Dog this medicine, and I was also advised to give Gelusil and Sporilac along with it. I never realised that the loose motion that she ahs was on account of this and when I did tell her Doctoe after 4 days, he asked me stop it, but on the 6th day I lost my dog. I do think that this medicine is too strong.

Always ate half meal first and then took pill, then ate rest of food and had not one bit of stomach upset. My only problems were completely tired-worn out feeling, muscle soreness, confusion and headaches.

diarhea stomach problems frequent bowel movemant frequent urinal movement

Within 5 hours after taking this with food I was vomitting. Then for 12 hours I couldn't even get water to stay down. Was not worth the time spent in bed.
