Hi,

I can understand your concern for the red boils on body. Ampiclox is an antibiotic which is basically taken orally for the boils and skin infections.

It contains ampicillin in it which is a very good antibiotic to treatment of the skin infections. It can not cause any type of red boils on your body.

Regarding the red boils - after unprotected intercourse red boils can not occur as a part of any sexually transmitted disease. SO do not correlate your boils with the unprotected sexual intercourse.

Do take a full course of antibiotic to treat it better. Always use protection during any sexual intercourse to get rid of any untoward happening.

Take care.

Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic,
There are a lot of sexually transmitted infections. Causative organisms can be bacteria, virus or insects. Ampiclox is an antibiotic and therefore acts against only bacteria causing STI. I can only say that they may help prevent bacterial STI but the catch is most of these bacteria may be resistant to it. It would not help in preventing scabies, pubic louse and viral STI's like HIV, Herpes, Molluscum, Warts etc

Ampiclox may cause allergic rash or hives, but not boils( furuncle). It is a treatment for boils.
Hope this helped,
Take care.
