    My doctor was treating me for a sinus infection( I don't know what kind).The first three days were fine. The third night I woke up and my hands and feet were tingling. I took my blood pressure and it was 165/98.Normal for me is about 125/70. I didn't take anymore of the medication and my pressure went back down and the tingling stopped.

    I'm on day 10 taking this medication for a sinus infection. I have an IGg subclass I deficiency so I have chronic sinus infections. For some reason my tongue is very red with little bumps and very sore. I haven't figured out yet if it's from the med or not but everything I eat burns my tongue. Published: October 15, 2007 ::

    Just went to the doctor today and he said I had Bronchitis and placed me on Amox/K Clav 875MG - 1 every 12 hours. About 10 minutes after I took this medicine (eat supper), my stomach started aching (the upper part). Not enough to put me down, but enough to drive me crazy. It has been about 3 hours and it is not as bad, but still irritating. Would or could this be a side effect? if so, can I cut in half and take half in the morning and half at night?

    iam taking the meds for cellulitus. the only thing that I did not like about the meds it that it made me have horriable gas!! It also made my urnine and bowel movements smell like penicillian. I don't think I would want to be on these meds again. I am currently taking them for ten days Published: October 08, 2008 ::

    This is my 2nd round of antibiotics (1st round was with Z-pack) for bronchitis. The tablets are hugh. For whatever reason, it created diarrhea but managed with yogurts prior to taking medication. Published: January 07, 2009 ::

    I was prescribed 1000mg x 4 times a day. The pills are so big that i had to break them apart even though they are not supposed to. So in turn i had a rash and it made my urine smell terrible. Now 10 days later i am still sick and on a different antibiotic and still have pneumonia. Published: November 20, 2008 ::
