Just prescribed Amoxicillin 200mg/5ml Susp 100ml for my kid's ear infection. Has anyone else given this to their children?
I've just been prescribed Amoxicillin 200mg/5ml Susp 100ml for my kid's ear infection. I've never given them an antibiotic before, and I'm a bit nervous about potential side effects. The doctor said it's a common and safe penicillin-type antibiotic, but I want to hear about other people's experiences. How did your kids react to this medication? Did you notice any side effects? Any tips on making it easier to administer? I'm also curious about storage and dosage instructions—anything I should know? Thanks in advance for your help!

Honestly, just make sure to administer the correct dosage. Some people give too much or too little, which can affect how well the medication works. It's easier to give with food. There are also flavors available to make it taste better.
My pediatrician always prescribes this for ear infections. Just make sure to finish the whole course, even if symptoms improve. Keep it refrigerated and shake it well before each dose. My kid had a bit of an upset stomach, but it was minor.
Sounds like a nightmare. I'm going to give my daughter the medicine out of the syringe, maybe that'll help.
My daughter had a severe reaction to Amoxicillin—she broke out in red, blotchy skin and had trouble breathing. We rushed her to the ER and it turned out she was allergic. Make sure to monitor for any severe side effects and contact your doctor right away if you notice any.
I gave my daughter the first dose and she threw up 15 minutes later. I had to call the doctor and they told me it was a common side effect, but to monitor her for any other symptoms. She was fine after that.
