"My son was first given Amoxicillin 400 mg/5 mL SUSP for his strep throat, but that was not effective in treating his bacteria. He continued to have a high fever, so the doctor prescribed Augmentin ES-600 SUSP. My son, who is 11 years old, would LOVE to go back to the Amoxicillin. The taste of the Augmentin is 'like swallowing chalk,' as my son describes. It also seems to be affecting his taste buds. Everything tastes terrible this week. He is only on day 4 of a 10-day supply, twice a day."
