- Amoxicillin for urinary tract infections (UTI)
When Amoxicillin is used for a UTI, you can expect symptom relief fairly quickly, often within the first 24 to 48 hours after starting the antibiotic. However, it’s important to note that everyone’s body is different. If the UTI is mild, symptoms may improve in a day. If the UTI is more severe or has spread to the kidneys, it might take a couple of days of treatment before you feel a lot better.
- Amoxicillin for pneumonia
The exact dose and duration of amoxicillin for pneumonia depend on your age, weight, how serious the infection is, and your kidney function. It’s important to complete your 10-day course even if your symptoms have improved.

Frequently asked questions
What is Amoxicillin medication?
Amoxicillin is a penicillin antibiotic prescribed to treat a variety of bacterial infections. It stops the bacteria’s growth by breaking down their cell walls, making it easier for your immune system to clear the infection. Here are some common conditions that Amoxicillin treats:
- Respiratory Infections: Pneumonia, bronchitis, sinusitis, and strep throat treatment
- Urinary tract infection
- Skin infection
- Amoxicillin for ear infections
Can I buy Amoxicillin without a prescription?

How long does it take for Amoxicillin 500 mg for a UTI to work?
Amoxicillin 500 mg starts working quickly at the microscopic level, but you might not immediately feel the effects of the treatment. The drug quickly starts inhibiting bacterial growth, but you wouldn’t observe the improvement in symptoms until 48 hours. In fact, for most people, it takes about 72 hours to improve overall health.
Can you take Amoxicillin 500 mg 3 times a day?
Yes, you can take 500 mg three times a day if your doctor tells you to. Many adults are prescribed 500 mg every 8 hours for infections like sinus infections, UTIs, and other bacterial illnesses. But you should never change the dose on your own. Always follow your antibiotic prescription to stay safe.
Is Amoxicillin 250 mg enough for the treatment of a tooth infection?
Usually, 250 mg is not strong enough for an adult with a tooth infection. Most adults need 500 mg, because dental infections can be harder to treat. The 250 mg dose is more commonly used for children or very mild cases, and only if a doctor decides it’s safe. If you think you have a tooth infection, you can talk to one of our doctors from home. If it’s right for you, they can send a prescription in just a few minutes.
Is Amoxicillin better than Azithromycin?
Amoxicillin and Azithromycin fight different bacteria, so the best one depends on what kind of infection you have. Doctors usually use Amoxicillin first to treat strep throat. Whereas, Azithromycin prescription is often taken once a day for only 5 days, which can be easier for some people. It can also be used for people who are allergic to penicillin.
What should I do if I miss a dose of Amoxicillin?
It’s important to take antibiotics according to the specific instructions of your doctor. However, if you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not double up on doses to make up for the missed pill, as it increases the risk of side effects.
What happens if I accidentally take too much Amoxicillin?
Taking amoxicillin exactly as your doctor prescribes helps you stay safe and lowers the chance of side effects. If you take too much, you may notice stomach problems like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or changes in your urine, such as it looking cloudy. Although it is rare, taking more than prescribed can also affect your nervous system. Book an appointment immediately if you notice the signs of a drug overdose.
Does Amoxicillin make you tired?
Fatigue is not a typical side effect of Amoxicillin. If you feel tired while taking Amoxicillin, it might be due to the infection your body is fighting, rather than the medication. If you experience extreme fatigue after taking Amoxicillin capsules or granules, it’s important to talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
Can I drink alcohol while taking an Amoxicillin capsule?
It’s advisable to avoid or limit alcohol while fighting an infection for three reasons:
- Drinking alcohol can worsen side effects
- Alcohol can also dehydrate you, which isn’t ideal when you’re trying to recover
- Alcohol can cause lightheadedness
