Suggest Treatment For Nausea And Dizziness
I was prescribed amoxicillin to 650mg/5ml suspension with 2 teaspoons to be taken daily. I didn't know that the doses were supposed to be 12 hours apart and I took the 2nd dose 7 hours after the previous dose. Is this a problem and what should I do? I'm feeling a little nauseaus and dizzy.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Amoxicillin sometimes gives stomach pain, dizziness or nausea at the beginning and you may feel a bit more because you have taken in short time.
My advice to you is: Keep taking the other doses with 12 hours apart for all the days doctor have prescribe to you. The symptoms you feel, will leave soon, so don't worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Elona Dashi
