"A lot of you seem to have stomach issues with this, me myself having inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and taking this didn't hurt my stomach at all. I saw one guy post he took 4 tabs in one day and complained on here of stomach pain. Please don't take more than 2 a day (depending on strength), otherwise, of course, your stomach will hurt. Antibiotics kill all bacteria, including good ones in your stomach. The max dose is about 875 mg twice a day, which I'm on, and no stomach issues, and I got Crohn's disease."

Amoxicillin / clavulanate "The pharmacist, physician, and nurse told me Augmentin could or may give me diarrhea. So I started eating the BRAT diet, yogurt, and drinking a lot of water. Mild, dull stomach discomfort with mild cramping on days 1 and 2. Day 3 is when diarrhea started. On the 7-day order."

Amoxicillin / clavulanate "This drug is awful. I have 3 days left, and I physically cannot handle it anymore. I'm intensely nauseous every day, but I never vomit. I just drool at the mouth and dry heave until it wears away. But by the time the nausea settles, it's time to take another pill! It makes going to work almost impossible. I also get unusual headaches and generally feel terrible. Unfortunately, it's a holiday, so I am unable to contact my doctor for something new. Considering risking it and quitting - never again."

Amoxicillin / clavulanate "Augmentin, worst experience of my life. I was pre-diabetic at the time, and after one dose, I started throwing up and had diarrhea so badly and for so long that I ended up in the ER with a glucose reading of 47!!! They were worried I had C. diff, i.e., Clostridium difficile infection (despite taking probiotics), and quarantined me in the one hospital wing. I was in there for days, and it finally stopped after multiple bags of fluid. I could barely eat anything for 2 weeks and was a mess. Luckily, I didn't have C. diff, but it was one of the few times in my life that I was genuinely worried."

Amoxicillin / clavulanate "This medication, Augmentin, is absolutely horrible on me. I’ve been prescribed this twice. I’ve taken it with and without food, and both times I vomited violently to the point I was hospitalized. I became so dehydrated they couldn’t even get a urine sample by catheter. I sweated so badly my jeans and t-shirt took two days to air dry. I became so delirious from vomiting that I stripped naked in front of my mother and children, then passed out. She called the ambulance. I couldn’t handle a day's dosage either time."

"Contracted COVID 2 weeks ago, mild to moderate, lots of dry coughing, fever, sweating. Really uncomfortable and symptoms just would not get better. Could not shake it, my GP prescribed Amclavox Duo Forte 875/125. Started to improve dramatically after 24 hours or so."

Amoxicillin / clavulanate "This caused major bleeding issues for me. After taking for a few days, I started bruising really bad and had problems eating anything because my stomach felt like a fire (I took it after eating to try and prevent that, but it didn't work). I was stuck with water, bread, and tiny-cut plain spaghetti. A week into the treatment, I developed a spontaneous LARGE hematoma on my backside that put me in the ER for a night. I may need to have it surgically removed in the next few days."

"This antibiotic is very good for me. I have suffered from oral infection, left chest pain, urinary infection for over 2 years. I went for a CBC test, UA test, but there were no signs of infection. A specialized doctor prescribed Amo-clavulanate, and in less than 3 days, it was like everything was good with me. I feel very good thanks to that experienced doctor."

"I have been on this Amovin for days now, the doctor said that I have to take it for 10 days, but I'm on my 7th day and nothing has changed. I still feel the sore and dryness in my throat. It makes me depressed most of the time."

"I took amoxicillin/clavulanate for 5 days, and I got severe diarrhea, and I still have my upper respiratory infection. I stopped because the pills started looking really weird, like the internal ingredients started expanding, breaking the outer coating. It's weird looking. I'm going to go back to the pharmacy where I got it and see if other pills are doing that too, that's why I quit taking it."

"After taking my first pill, I got very ill and threw up. That was two weeks ago, and there’s no proof that it caused the illness; the doctor thought it could have been, so she gave me another antibiotic: Doxycycline. Hoping it works."
