Top Questions and Answers
Since it's the weekend, will this Amoxicillin work for my uti? I have a pill bottle about a few months old, that is still good until next year, full of amoxicillin pills from my past ear infection. Since it's Saturday should I go ahead and take this for the urinary tract infection? I read online that amoxicillin treats them, so wouldn't this work?

rejectedsoul replied: "why didnt you take the amoxicillin for your ear infection no do not take it its the wrong type of antibiotic go see a doctor tonight at your local er and flush those pills"

I am currently taking amoxicillin for a UTI and I'm breast feeding? Doctors said that it was safe, and that it was okay to take whlie breastfeeding. My question, with all of the MRSA scares, and since amoxicillin is passed throught the breastmilk, can it cause a drug resistance to my child later on in life? What are the chances of that happening? Thanks.

Josephine replied: "amoxicillin is one of the most common antibiotics. I've known plenty of moms who've taken it while nursing. I'm sure it's fine."

Grace H replied: "There is no need to worry about that it cannot harm your baby at all or give it drug resistance as long as you dr said it was safe it is ok to continue! No need to worry about MRSA no one is resistant you cannot be more likely to catch from having amoxicillin the only way to prevent getting it is to not come into contact with it!"

mystic_eye_cda replied: "Amoxicillin is commonly given directly to babies, from birth, and has a long history of safety in babies and nursing moms. I can't comment on the risk of antibiotic resistance, but I can tell you that whether your baby has ever had antibiotics they can still CONTRACT a resistant strain. So while you shouldn't abuse antibiotics avoiding them will not prevent you from contracting a resistant strain -just creating more resistant strains to be passed around. That being said the baby would receive 0.25-0.5% of a normal baby dosage so I would suspect that's far too low to cause resistance. ?./temp/~vWnIiW:1 Maternal Levels. After a single 1 gram oral dose of amoxicillin in 6 women, peak milk amoxicillin levels occurred 4 to 5 hours after the dose. Average milk levels were 0.69 mg/L (range 0.46 to 0.88 mg/L) at 4 hours and 0.81 mg/L (range 0.39 to 1.3 mg/L) at 5 hours after the dose.[1] Using these data, an exclusively breastfed infant would be expected to receive a maximum of about 0.1 mg/kg daily of amoxicillin with a maternal dose of 500 mg 3 times daily. This amounts to 0.25 to 0.5% of a typical infant amoxicillin dosage"

How many mgs of Amoxicillin for a UTI? How many mgs of amoxicillin should i take if i have a urinary tract infection? i am 17 and weigh 115 lbs and female.

Robert F replied: "Being a prescribed medication , it would be what the doctor says."

Will the antibiotics I am taking for my wisdom teeth (Amoxicillin) do anything for my UTI? And if no, will I have to wait for my pre ion to run out before I get the right ones for the UTI?

Alabama replied: "It should work."

k-t replied: "MAYBE..... its hard to say. I really think you should see your GP to make sure you get the right antibiotic for your UTI."

Mike replied: "In theory, the answer is MAYBE. But it depends upon whether you have a bacterial UTI and, if so, what microorganism ("germ") is the cause. It's usually e.coli. Until recently, the standard treatment for a UTI was 10 days of amoxicillin, a penicillin antibiotic, but it is now ineffective against E. coli bacteria in up to 25% of cases. A combination of amoxicillin-clavulanate (Augmentin) is sometimes given for drug-resistant infections. Amoxicillin or Augmentin may be useful for UTIs caused by gram-positive organisms, including Enterococcus species and S. saprophyticus.....If you're not allergic to sulfa meds, Bactrim or Septra (both the same) are used more nowadays.....In short, the amoxicillin MAY treat your UTI and ALSO treat your dental issue."

FLEX replied: "It's possible that the Amoxicillin will help with your UTI, but you might want to ask your doctor to prescribe Bactrim-DS 160mg for your UTI. And make sure that you finish your previous antibiotics before you start anything new. Hope this helps you."

Is amoxicillin good for UTI's? It will be a week Saturday and im still n pain!!!

gemini rules replied: "Cipro is the best!"

piepiepie replied: "How long were you prescribed the meds for? Antibiotics stay in your system for a few days after treatment. I was taking amoxicillin for a UTI just awhile ago. I was given 2 weeks worth. I had mild pain, but it went away about a week or a week in a half in. If you're still feeling very bad and the home remedies for pain don't help, contact your doctor. I find that drinking lots of water while suffering from a UTI actually helps with the pain. You have to go a lot, but I'm sure you feel that way anyways, but when you go it's not as painful. Good luck!"

skip22h replied: "This is broad spectrum so it kills most things"

evi replied: "i don't think so. many physicians use the combination of trimetoprim and sulphamethoxazol."

know it some replied: "UTI ouch girl I hear ya!! There is hope! While the antibiotics do their job you don't have to suffer, there is a great over the counter product that helps so much its called "CYSTEX" its an antibacterial & analgesic(pain reliver) it works great and fast results in the first hour!!! Not expensive & works good with or without the antibiotics!! And the best news is you can get it at almost any pharmacy-type store (walgreens, walmart, rite-aid, longs almost anywhere!) Good luck & take care, drink plenty of water & lay-off the sugar intake! "

i have a uti will amoxicillin help? i have a uti and i dont have health insurance or money to go see a doctor. my mother has a bottle of amoxicillin and i want to know if it will help.

algal replied: "flush your system with cranberry juice and water.."

Nikki S replied: "it might help some, but you should be taking bactrim. its a pre ion for bacterial infections. Amox might do some good though . and lots of cranbertry juice, but uti can turn into kidney infection which is worse. U can call a doctor and ask the office or a nurse."

AKA Inverse Mushroom Cloud replied: "If you don't have a medical degree, don't self-prescribe."

Laura replied: "Go buy Cran-Actin it is a cranberry capsule and is better than cranberry juice because one capsule is like drinking 9 cups of juice. The cranberry helps the bacteria not stick to your bladder. If you are just going to drink juice make sure its 100% juice. You should make an appointment with your county health department. If you qulify for a program they offer you could get your medication and dr. visit for free or at a less expensive price. You really should go see a dr b/c a UTI just gets worse and can damage your kidneys."

LINDA R replied: "You should never take any medication that is not prescribed for you by your doctor. In this case, it may not be the correct antibiotic for the bacteria causing your infection. All antibiotics do not kill all bacteria. Some antibiotics kill some bacteria, other antibiotics kill other bacteria. If you don't take the correct medication, your infection will spread and cause more problems. If your mother has an antibiotic that she needs to be taking for an infection at this point, and YOU take the medication instead, your mother will not have it to take as she is supposed to, and her infection will get worse. Also, no one should ever have antibiotics "left over" after treatment for an infection. The antibiotics need to be taken as prescribed, until they are all. If the course of medication is not completed, leftover bacteria will spread and cause more problems. You need to see a doctor. If you don't, your infection will spread and cause kidney damage and other serious problems."

Cefadroxil or Amoxicillin for UTI? Which antibiotic is more effective for a UTI in a 32 year old otherwise healthy (on no other medications) woman - Cefadroxil or Amoxicillin?

jamesemt911 replied: "Either one will work. Amoxicillin is cheaper, but both work effectively."

EL replied: "cefadoxil.but first give urine for culture."

munni replied: "these are effective in respiratory disorders for UTI you can use NORFLOXACIN or NITROFURANTOIN"

Ryan P replied: "Hopefully you are not allergic to either medication! Are you sure that you can take both? I am deathly allergic to Cephlspoarins, but I can take Amoxicillin....Be careful and let your Dr. decide which is best for you"

scott s replied: "I would go with a good sulfur drug .ie...bactrim d/s.its always been the best one if you are tolerant of these type drugs"

emt_me911 replied: "I would recommend Cipro. UTIs can be hard to treat and may require more than one course of antibiotics. Cipro works really well on it (unless you are allergic to it). EMT"

can zoloft and geodon interact with amoxicillin? I am taking it for a uti? I am on geodon and amoxicillin

gotta luv da Li replied: "This is a good drug interaction check site. Bookmark it for future reference if you are on psych meds. It will come in handy. Off hand, I don't think so, but check."

Chinese Angel replied: "dude, are you nuts or what? do you think that we're all doctors? i'm not trying to be mean. it just scares me how you are leaving that decision (SO IMPORTANT!) to someone-- anyone online, behind a screen, and unknown to you. take better care of yourself and go to your doctor."

can i take amoxicillin 500mg for a UTI? i seem to have a uti but i havent gone to the doctor because im away at school and the syptoms keep coming and going like one day they will be there and the next they wont..i have amoxicillin 500mg that my doctor gave me to have here with me incase i needed it...will that work? ..it is a full course of amoxicillin

tippiturtle13 replied: "it may or may not work depending on what type of bacteria is sensitive to that antibiotic. try it and if you still have symptoms after you finish out the antibiotics, go to the dr. and let him know those antibiotics didnt work."

stickywicket36 replied: "in case you needed it for what - do you have a whole packet. if your in the uk i would recommend you go to a walk in centre for treatment especially if you don't have a full course of amoxil with you, they will see you test your urine on the spot and give you appropriate treatment if you actually have a uti. amoxil isn't usually given for uti - its usually ciprofloxacillin or trimethoprim - dependant on local prescribing policies"

dakotamoon1980 replied: "you should give your doctor that prescribed the amoxil a call. also check the bottle to verify the drug hasn't expired. depending on the severity you need to know exactly how much of the drug to take and how long. while your waiting try to drink as much cranbery juice as you can and take an otc drug called Azo"

S P replied: "Well what does your doctor say? You need to see one!"
