Typically, doctors prescribe 500mg of Amoxicillin every 8 hours for uncomplicated UTIs. This means you take three doses daily, spaced approximately eight hours apart.
The total duration of treatment usually ranges from 7 to 14 days, depending on the severity of your infection and your doctor’s assessment. Always follow your doctor’s specific instructions regarding the dosage and the length of your treatment course.
Take Amoxicillin with a full glass of water. Avoid taking it with dairy products like milk or yogurt as they can interfere with absorption.
Complete the entire course of antibiotics, even if you start feeling better before the prescribed time is up. Stopping early may lead to recurring infections.
Contact your doctor immediately if you experience any allergic reactions (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing), severe stomach pain, or persistent diarrhea. These could be signs of adverse effects.
