What other drugs will affect amoxicillin?


Before taking amoxicillin, tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following drugs:

  • another antibiotic (for the same or for a different infection);
  • methotrexate (Rheumatrex);
  • allopurinol (Zyloprim); or
  • probenecid (Benemid).

You may not be able to take amoxicillin, or you may require a dosage adjustment or special monitoring during treatment if you are taking any of the medicines listed above.

Drugs other than those listed here may also interact with amoxicillin. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any prescription or over-the-counter medicines, including vitamins, minerals, and herbal products.
