"I was really worried about taking this antibiotic after reading all of the negative reviews! However, I had to do it. I ate a PBJ and banana before taking every morning and have had ZERO side effects so far. In the afternoon I just take it after dinner. Everyone can react differently to any medication, but don't get too caught up in all the negative reviews. People who have negative experiences are much more likely to submit a review (for anything) than positive experiences. The antibiotic worked as expected. I am so glad I was able to take this over cipro."

Augmentin (amoxicillin / clavulanate) "Was prescribed this Augmentin (875/125) 2 doses a day for 7 days after being misdiagnosed with a UTI and on Keflex for a week before that did nothing for my fever or pain or infection. When I was finally diagnosed with a Kidney infection, I started taking Augmentin. I’m on day 3 and feeling SO much better without my fever and kidney pain. However I am having mild side affects. I get a decent headache within hours of taking each dose, and there is some diarrhea. However taking it with food lessens those side effects and the main thing I know is helping is taking good probiotics daily as well that has helped keep my flora balanced and prevent the thrush a lot of people experience after this medication. Very effective, just be sure to replenish the good bacteria in your system as you are taking it."

Augmentin (amoxicillin / clavulanate) "I was prescribed Augmentin for a severe double kidney infection. Although , I took a second dose way before I was due to have it, in fact about 2 hours after the first dose , due to the fact and my reasoning to get on top of this infection. The first dose was no problems I couldn't even tell that I had taken it . The second dose , within ten minutes I had the worst anxiety I have ever experienced as well as , a panic attack with heart palpitations, chest pain and tightness and the general feeling I was suddenly at the end of my life. I had the phone in one hand getting ready to call 911 with the reasoning to myself that I could have mere moments left to be able to even make the call and the other hand trying to keep my balance as I had Severe shaking and muscle twitching and the sense I had little control over my own body’s . Never again , I would rather take my chances against the double kidney infection ."

"I went and seen my doctor for a kidney infection but she prescribed me medicine I didn't want to take after reading some of the horrifying side effects from the medication. Thank God I had a bottle of Amox-clav I started taking it and so far I'm feeling a lot better and don't have to worry about the scary side effects some people have trouble with taking Amox-clav but I'm so far I'm not having any issues its helped me in so many ways for once I'm not hurting when I have to go to the bathroom. These antibiotics are a real life saver"

Augmentin (amoxicillin / clavulanate) "Augmentin makes me completely sick! I must be like the 1% who is allergic to it! I always have to list it as an allergy and make sure something else is prescribed instead of this!"

"Pain of pyelonephritis was less than pain in stomach on antibiotics, and I felt like I was drowning in stomach acid which burned my throat raw."

"Works fine, takes 1-3 days to work. Can be taken with food or without food. Amoxicillin with Calvulanate is better than just Amoxicllin on its own."
