Post Body

Im getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed and was prescribed amoxicillin 500mg taking 1 pill 4 times a day for a week. I read a lot of peoples stories of being on antibiotics and how it ruined their gut health and now I’m kinda wary of taking them, can anyone give me some advice on taking antibiotics and what I should and shouldn’t do please. I’m also on birth control for my periods so I don’t know if that would affect it or not.

Take amoxicillin as prescribed, stay hydrated, consider probiotics, monitor for side effects, and finish the full course. Check with your doctor about birth control interactions.
