Can you eat dairy products while on amoxicillin?

Answer 1

Augmentin should be taken with food, dairy products should have no effect on Augmentin. Some drugs should not be taken within 1-2 hours of dairy products or any calcium, magnesium, or aluminum containing materials because they will interfere with absorption of the drug.

Answer 2

Different antibiotics have different requirements when it comes to whether you take them with or without food, or when you take them.

You will have seen your doctor in order to be prescribed antibiotics. The condition for which they've been prescribed and the dosage instructions dictate any dietary restrictions or requirements while you are unwell, rather than the fact you are breastfeeding.

If your doctor didn't discuss this with you, or you've forgotten what the instructions were, ring and ask; to get the optimum benefit from antibiotics you need to closely observe dosage and other instructions.

Answer 3

Some antibiotics can be taken with milk to help absorbsion like Co-Amoxiclav (Augmentin) etc. and others need to AVOID Milk for 2hrs... before taking and 1 hour after.
