It won't hurt you, but most antibiotics don't affect the birth control pill, and the few that do would also affect the levonorgestrel morning after pill.

Can you take a birth control pill in the morning and an antibiotic at night and the birth control still work?

No. That won't decrease the effects of the antibiotic on the birth control's efficiency. The only safe way is to use alternative forms of birth control while taking the antibiotic and for at least two weeks after finishing the antibiotics. Don't have unprotected sex during that time because you are at an increased risk of pregnancy. What time you take the pills won't help that - sorry :)

Does amoxicillin stop your period after 2days?

an antibiotic should not stop your menses, unless you are allergic to it. Antibiotics DO alter the effectiveness of birth control pills- i.e., makes them LESS effective. So while taking an antibiotic, and for about two weeks after completing the prescription, one should also use an additional method of birth control
