The diarrhea is a classic component result and the guy on medicine might desire to take B12 nutrition to top off the intestinal commonly used plant existence.

It depends on the type of antibiotic and the dose, I would call the pharmacy--a pharmacist will tell you. Also unless you have some type of heart problem, I would increase your fluids today to help secrete it out.

it depends on how strong the dose is. I take amoxicillin 500 mg everyday for acne and i've taken double doses accidently a couple times and it does nothing. i would just call your doctor.

You increase your risk of side effects, and more will not make you better faster in most cases.
