Best Answer

There are no particular side effects to drinking alcohol with amoxicillin, which is a penicillin based antibiotic. Like all antibiotics, it is best taken on an empty stomach and Doctors normally suggest that it is taken some time before drinking alcohol so that there is plenty of time for the antibiotic to get absorbed from the stomach.

The main side effects of penicillin-based antibiotics are nausea and diarrhoea and as these can also be the side effects of an overdose of alcohol, it can sometimes be difficult to tell which side effects are which! For this reason, Doctors usually suggest that people keep their alcohol to the minimum when on medication.

No, the alcohol would affect the amoxicillin, and stop it from working properly.

You shouldn't, it won't kill you or do any damage, but you will not get the full effects of the Amoxicillian because it will fight off the affects of the alchol.

Can you drink alcohol while taking amox clav 875 mg tablets?

Yes! There is a common myth that alcohol mixed with antibiotics, such as Amoxicillin, causes interactions. This is not the case. While medical professionals will advise an individual taking an antibiotic to avoid alcohol it does not cause any interactions or pose a risk to the individuals health. The idea is that if you are sick enough to take antibiotics that you should not be drinking alcohol until you are well. There are no known drug interactions associated with Amoxicillin. There is also a belief that Amoxicillin is less effective when taken in combination of drinking alcohol, this too is untrue.
