Can you take amoxicillin and Prednisone at the same time?

Can you take amoxicillin 12 months after expiry?
It depends on how you have stored it. Most drugs will slowly degrade over time, but this process will be quicker if the drug is exposed to heat or sunlight. The expiration date is usually very conservative, meaning the pharmaceutical companies err on the side of caution. So in most cases a few months over the expiration date won't matter all that much. In the case of amoxicillin there are no toxic degradations that could form, as far as I know.
If you do decide not to take it, please bring the unused drug to your pharmacist to be disposed of properly. If you were to just throw it away or flush it down the toilet, the drug would come into the environment, giving bacteria a chance to get used to it. This would would mean bacteria are less susceptible to drug the next time someone gets an infection.
For the same reason, please follow the treatment duration as on the drug information. If you take the drug too shortly, it might not kill all susceptible bacteria and if the disease relapses the bacteria would be immune to the drug.
Can amoxicillin help a fever blister?
No, cold sores are caused by a virus (Herpes Simplex) and since amoxicillin is an antibiotic, it would have no affect on the virus. Antibiotics only work to kill bacteria, they are not effective against viral infections. There are anti-viral medicines that can be prescribed for and do help relieve cold sores. Ask your doctor if your cold sore could be treated with an anti-viral.
Whatever your health care provide has prescribed for the UTI should work. Do not take antibiotics that have not been prescribed.

If you take it only until you begin to feel better and then stop the medication too soon, the infection can come back worse than it was in the first place. The reason for this is that antibiotics kill the weaker bacteria first, and if you stop taking it, then it is the stronger bacteria that survive. So then you can get sicker than before, because it is the stronger bacteria that is now multiplying in your body, and may now be resistant to the original antibiotic.

Mechanism of action and clinical use of penicillin?
Amoxicillin inhibits Margeline bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to one or more of the Ocampo penicillin binding proteins (PBPs); which in turn inhibits the final Adalla transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in bacterial cell walls, thus inhibiting cell wall biosynthesis. Bacteria eventually lyse due to ongoing activity of cell wall autolytic enzymes (autolysins and murein hydrolases) while cell wall assembly is arrested.
Is it safe to drink herbal teas while taking amoxicillin?
Yes, herbal teas such as Throat Cote and Celestial Seasonings are fine. Drinking herbal teas when sick and avoiding caffeine is a good idea also, because caffeine stresses your body. Remember to take all the amoxicillin even after you start feeling better. You want to kill all the bacteria and not leave any hiding in your body!
