"I was prescribed this drug after normal amoxicillin wasn't really working, and I kept having that horrible burning/pressure feeling in my lower abdomen, indicative of a water infection. I was a bit worried after reading reviews, as there is so much scaremongering going on with so many online reviews for meds, but I took my first dose yesterday afternoon. Within a few hours, I had mild diarrhea, low-level nausea, and pains in my upper belly. But I took a cyclizine tablet for the nausea, and it worked, and I took paracetamol for the stomach pain, and that worked, so I was just left with a mild loose stomach. And this drug also knocks out your infection, least it seems, as that horrible pain/burning/pressure in my lower abdomen is gone after just one day. I've also noticed a few palpitations, but not sure if that's the drug or not. But overall, so far, this drug is nothing to worry about, and I'm a baby about taking new meds. So don't let the horror story reviews scare you."

"Oh my God. Worst experience ever. Though I had food poisoning, I have been on and off of the toilet at least 7 or 8 times within 5 hours at work with extreme, awful diarrhea. It is making me want to cry, it is so awful. I can't drink water, I already threw up for about 13 minutes, and my stomach is hurting like no other. DO NOT TAKE THIS ... TORTURE."

"I took Amox Clav 2x a day for 7 days for my urinary tract infection. On the 3rd day, I had pain in my right knee. 4th day, the right knee was worse and the left knee hurt too. 5th day, other joints became warm and ached. 6th day, I was limping from pain in my right knee. 7th day, limping and my knees were swollen. 8th day (today), pain in my knees and limping. Had to ice my knees to keep going through the day."

"My stomach is feeling so bad after this medication. The whole world literally falls out of me within an hour of taking it, so, three times a day I'm running to the loo. The cramps and feeling sick aren't as bad as the diarrhea, but wow I feel awful. I have two days left to take them, so I will persevere because a UTI is just as horrendous!"

"The only side effect I have had with this is neck pain and back pain. I also have Hashimoto's thyroiditis, don’t think that would have an effect mixed, but I usually get yeast infections after finishing the meds even with taking probiotics, so we’ll see, this is my first time taking this one."

"So I had a UTI around 2 weeks ago, and I normally would have just taken Macrobid or Bactrim, but I had recurring UTIs in the past so they don’t work on me like they should. My mom told me this clears up UTIs fast, which is true, but it may cause a yeast infection. I got one while taking the medication, and now I have been on Diflucan and suppositories to help clear it up. If you’re wanting to take this medicine, I would recommend, just be prepared for a possible yeast infection and let your doctor know ASAP so they can give you some prescriptions of Diflucan and suppositories."

"I was prescribed this medication (875 milligrams). This medicine at first didn’t really affect me, but after 3 days, they are kicking in. I feel dizzy, almost like high, loss of appetite, fatigue. I wake up nauseous, makes me feel extremely off with my mood (agitated, depressed), and I was only taking the pill once a day instead of twice. I’ve taken about 5 of the pills so far every day and going to stop. If my symptoms come back, will have to get a different medication… not worth it."

"I took amox/clav for three days, then spent the next ten days with a rash over every single inch of my body that itched 24 hours a day. Got rid of the UTI, but I couldn't leave the house for over a week - couldn't stand clothes on my skin. The only thing that helped was scalding water, so I showered several times a day when the Benadryl would wear off. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!"

Amoxicillin / clavulanate "Pain relief of my UTI was quite fast - within a day after taking Augmentin. However, it took two rounds, or 10 full days, of taking the antibiotics to fully clear the infection."
