Pain abdomen associated with nausea can be due to Appendicitis.

i took Amoxicillin/clavulanic acid is a combination penicillin-type antibiotic used to treat a wide variety of bacterial infections. its only been 30 mins and just feels like its only going to do so much. i will go to the emergency room tomorrow. i still feel like they are strong cramps covering my whole stomach.. and i still havent gone number 2.
Brief Answer:
You can stop Amoxicillin
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I usually do not prescribe Amoxicillin for infection in the stomach,even in Appendicitis.Amoxicillin has activity more on Gram positive bacteria.In Appendicitis,you need a broad spectrum Antibiotic which works more on Gram negative bacteria like Cefuroxime, Faropenem etc.
Amoxicillin should be stopped as you are having Abdominal cramps.
Please take Rabeprazole along with Dicyclomine till you consult a doctor.
