What Causes Nausea And Dizziness While On Amox TR-K CLV?

I had surgery on Thursday and was given amok tr-k clv 875-125 mg tab to tak 2 times daily. Each time I take it I get nausea and feel dizzy. I make sure I take it when I eat but still feel very blah pretty much anxious. I have taken amoxicillin before and never had a problem however this medicine seems to be causing some side effects. What is your recommendation on continuing to take this medicine?

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.

As per your complain it seems that you have nausea and dizziness as the side effect of the medication and as you never had the symptoms after taking amoxicillin there is a possibility that you are getting side effect with this medicine as it is a combination of amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid..
I would suggest you to consult your treating surgeon and get evaluated and he can advise you to take any other antibiotic or reduce the dose of the one you are taking..
You should also take proper rest and drink plenty of water..
In case if there is excessive nausea and vomiting like feeling you can take anti emetic like Domperidone..

Hope this informations helps..

Thanks and regards.
