How much amoxicillin to prescribe for tooth infections?

Answer 1

You usually take Amoxicillin 500mg as a preventative measure for bacterial growth. Normally, it's one capsule by mouth three times daily for a duration of seven days. However if your tooth is already infected you may want to follow up with a healthcare professional or dentist to reduce your risk of forming an abscess, which is more trouble then what it is worth.

Answer 2

Usually on the third day ,you will see signs of the infection decreasing. By the 7th day it shold be cleared by amoxcillin. Take with ibruprofen for the pain and infammation. Good luck
