If I remember right augmentin is a mixture of amoxicillin and an acid so basically the augmentin is stronger and in some cases is required but its also more addictive.

There is no way to answer this question without knowing what the medication was perscribed for and what the perscribed dosage amount was. Also, if it was perscribed for ADD, you would need to measure and report the effect of the medication on your ADD symptoms.


Which antibiotic is best foe fighting the common cold?

Depends on how bad of a cold you have and what your symptoms are. Normal colds are affiliated with sinus infections/throat infections, etc. and can usually be treated with Amoxicillin, Cephalexin, Penicillin, etc. Stronger infections need Augmentin (Amoxicillin/Clavulanate), Zithromax (Azithromycin), Levaquin, etc. The common cold is caused by a virus, and antibiotics don't affect viruses- they only combat bacterial infections.

Can you take two percocets at one time?

When I destroyed my ankle I was on Vicodin and Oxycontin at the same time. The answer always depends on the situation, were you perscribed both by a doctor, was it the same doctor that perscribed and were they perscribed at the same time. If you are just wanting to take both of them at the same time for a high either one by itself would suffice. Oxycontin is bad news and very addictive. I will never take them again no matter how much pain. Can't go through those DT'S Again.


Can you take claritin d and amoxicillin together?

Yes Dayquil is fine to take with amoxicillin, in fact a lot of doctors will prescribe decongestants, antihistamines and cough suppressants along with antibiotics just to make you feel better while the antibiotic does its stuff. Make sure to drink lots of water before and after you're finished taking Amoxicillin. Once you finish the Amoxicillin prescription, eat yogurt with live cultures or take acidophilus to restore the healthy bacteria in your digestive tract.
