Can Double Dose Of Augmentum Cause Any Side Effects?
Question: HI I am on Augmentum for sinus infection and I took my regular dose in the 12 hours, but after 6 hours I took it again by mistake. What should I do?
Brief Answer:
don't worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic .
Augmentin is a antibiotic. If by mistake it is taken before scheduled time then it won't cause any major harm to your body.
You may feel some acidity or one or 2 episodes of loose motion. Nothing more than that. I would advice you to skip your regular dose which will be in night. And from tomorrow take your dose regularly.
Hope I have answered your query . If any further queries are there I would love to help.
Regards
