I doubt the Vicodin caused the tongue blisters but it could have triggered the virus that is the cause of tongue blisters (canker sores on the tongue).

No, cold sores are caused by a virus (Herpes Simplex) and since amoxicillin is an antibiotic, it would have no affect on the virus.

Ask your doctor if your cold sore could be treated with an anti-viral.
