What Causes Abdominal Discomfort After Taking Dicloxacillin Sodium?

My dr gave me dicloxcillin sodium 500 . I got sick to my stomach last night. I had taken 4 capsules , one every six hours. It says on your website to take this on an empty stomach. My script says after meals. Am I taking this wrong and having the sickness because of this?
