2. What you need to know before starting to take Amoxicilina Sandoz
Do not takeAmoxicilina Sandoz:
- if you are allergic to amoxicillin, penicillins, or any of the other components of this medication (listedin Section 6).
- if you have ever had an allergic reaction to any other antibiotic. This could include a skin rash or swelling of the face or throat.
Do not take amoxicillin if any of the above applies to you. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking amoxicillin.
Warnings and precautions
Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to takeamoxicillin if:
- you have infectious mononucleosis (fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and extreme fatigue),
- you have kidney problems,
- you do not urinate regularly.
If you are unsure whether any of the above situations apply to you, inform your doctor or pharmacist before taking amoxicillin.
Blood and urine tests
If you are having:
- urine tests (glucose in urine) or blood tests for liver function,
- blood tests for estriol (used during pregnancy to check if the baby is developing normally).
Inform your doctor or pharmacist that you are taking amoxicillin. This is because amoxicillin may affect the results of these types of tests.
Other medications and Amoxicilina Sandoz
Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have used recently, or may need to use any other medication.
- If you are taking allopurinol (used for gout) with amoxicillin, you may be more likely to have a skin allergic reaction.
- If you are taking probenecid (used for gout), the concurrent use of probenecid may reduce the excretion of amoxicillin and is not recommended.
- If you are taking anticoagulants (such as warfarin) with amoxicillin, you may need more blood tests.
- If you are taking other antibiotics (such as tetracycline), amoxicillin may be less effective.
- If you are taking methotrexate (used for cancer and severe psoriasis treatment), penicillins may reduce the excretion of methotrexate and cause a potential increase in adverse effects.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or think you may be pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.
Driving and operating machinery
Amoxicillin may have adverse effects and symptoms (such as allergic reactions, dizziness, and convulsions) that may make it unsafe to drive.
Do not drive or operate machinery unless you are feeling well.
Amoxicilina Sandoz 1000 mg contains aspartame, benzyl alcohol, benzoate, sodium, sorbitol, and sulfur dioxide.
This medication contains 5.2 mg of aspartame in each dispersible tablet.
Aspartame contains a source of phenylalanine that may be harmful in cases of phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare genetic disorder in which phenylalanine accumulates because the body is unable to eliminate it correctly.
This medication contains up to 0.60 mg of benzyl alcohol in each dispersible tablet.
Benzyl alcohol may cause allergic reactions. Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are pregnant or breastfeeding and have liver or kidney diseases. This is because large amounts of benzyl alcohol may accumulate in your body and cause adverse effects (metabolic acidosis). This medication should not be used for more than one week in children under 3 years of age unless instructed by your doctor or pharmacist.
This medication contains up to 0.29 mg of benzoate in each dispersible tablet. Benzoate may increase the risk of jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes) in newborns (up to 4 weeks old).
This medication contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per dispersible tablet; it is essentially “sodium-free”.
This medication contains 0.064 mg of sorbitol in each dispersible tablet.
This medication contains 48 ng of sulfur dioxide. Rarely, it may cause severe hypersensitivity reactions and bronchospasm.

How long should you take Amoxicilina
- Continue taking amoxicillin for the time your doctor told you, even if you feel better. You need to take all the doses to overcome the infection. If some bacteria survive, they may cause the infection to recur.
- Once you finish the treatment, if you continue to feel unwell, you should go back to see your doctor.
You may develop candidiasis (a fungal infection of the moist parts of the body that can cause pain, itching, and white discharge) if you take amoxicillin for a prolonged period. If this happens, consult your doctor.
If you take amoxicillin for a prolonged period, your doctor may perform additional tests to check that your kidneys, liver, and blood are functioning normally.
If you have any other doubts about the use of this medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
