When to Consult a Healthcare Professional

Contact your doctor immediately if you experience a severe allergic reaction, including difficulty breathing, swelling of your face, lips, or tongue, or hives. Seek immediate medical attention; this is a life-threatening emergency.

Also, contact your doctor if your symptoms don’t improve after 7 days of taking Amoxicillin-pot clavulanate, or if they worsen. This indicates the antibiotic may not be effective against your infection. Persistent or recurring symptoms require further evaluation.

Other Reasons to Seek Medical Advice

Report any new or worsening symptoms, such as severe diarrhea (possibly indicating Clostridium difficile infection), severe stomach pain, unusual bleeding or bruising, or yellowing of your skin or eyes (jaundice). These could be signs of serious complications. Regular monitoring is important for high-risk patients.

If you experience any unusual side effects, don’t hesitate to contact your doctor. Detailed reporting helps medical professionals understand the drug’s effects and ensures appropriate care.
