Taking other medicines
Please inform your doctor if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including those obtained without a prescription.
In particular, tell your doctor if you are taking:
- anticoagulants (used to thin the blood) such as warfarin or phenindione
- probenecid (used to treat gout).
- allopurinol (used to treat gout).
Amoxicillin Capsules may reduce the effectiveness of the oral contraceptive pill, and you should therefore take extra precautions e.g. use a condom during your amoxicillin treatment.
Taking Amoxicillin Capsules with food and drink
These capsules may be taken before, during or after your meals.
Pregnancy and breast-feeding
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicines if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant. Amoxicillin passes into breast milk, so tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding.
