only topical antibiotics come over the counter. Ingested antibiotics are only prescribed by a doctor because overuse can cause bacteria to become resistant to treatment.

Amoxicillin is the most common antibiotic, but you still have to have a prescription to get it. Are you sure you need an antibiotic? You have to be careful when taking these medications particularly if you take them for something that they won't be useful for, such as a virus. Antibiotic resistance is becoming more and more prevalent, and the last thing you want is to someday have to take high dose antibiotics for something as simple as an earache, but you have no choice because you became resistant to more common, low grade drugs....

There is none over the counter, it's a prescribed medication. Go to your doctor or go to Mexico where you can buy them without prescriptions. Sorry...good luck.

Taking over the counter anti-biotics would be STUPID.
When you abuse anti-biotics that makes them less effective later.
Anti-biotics should be used sparingly. You've not hear about superbugs?

DEPENDS FOR WHAT. YOU DID NOT SAY WHY YOU NEED IT. SO HOW CAN ANYONE TELL YOU WHAT TO GET. YOU NEED TO BE MORE CLEAR ON WHAT YOU ARE ASKING.
SORRY, CAN'T HELP BECAUSE DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU.
