Told to take 4 -500 MG of Amoxicillin one hour before dental appointment
because of knee replacement surgery. I noticed during
my visit a week ago that the day after my dental appointment I got a
pen tip size hole in my small finger. It started to bleed. It took me
over 1 1/2 hours to get it to stop! just would not clot. The next day it
started bleeding again after trying to peel an orange. Bleed another
hour with out clotting. Since this type of bleeding never happened
before, I do believe that the pills cause blood thinning. And I'm told
to take this dose the rest of my life because of the knee surgery.
