amoxicillin...

I messed up on my dose last week. When I came home from doctor appt. on July 22, I filled my amoxicillin. I was to take 2000 mg. daily. I didn't start it the following week, as it was my week off meds. When I finally started it on Aug. 1, I forgot I was to take 2 pills, twice daily. So, I went for 5 days last week and 2 this week before I remembered I wasn't taking enough pills. I thought I noticed a slight wave of dizziness on occasion with the lesser dose. Since I have started the full dose on Wed. I have been very dizzy the last 2 days. I can feel this dizziness in my forehead and head in general. I am hoping it's the meds and not something new. The drug side effects do list dizziness. I don't know if my weekend off meds will be enough to find out if this is caused my amox. or something else.

With this disease, you just can't seem to win!

Thanks for listening...

Re: amoxicillin...

it may be your body adjusting to the dosage. i quickly built up to 3000mg of amox and it about killed me. throwing up and all... take it easy, rest, and DRINK WATER!

take care and keep us posted, so sorry it's been tough.
