Hello, Welcome Thanks for consulting HCM,
I have gone through your query, as you have mentioned that you have toothache ,Yes you can take amoxicillin.
You do is Take one capsule amoxicillin 500mg three times a day for three days .
Take one tablet Diclofenac sodium three time daily for 3 days
Take one capsule vitamin B complex once daily for three days
Do warm saline gargle two - three times a day
Consult dentist and go for Root canal treatment as early as possible.
