Dear thanks for the question.

You are unnecessarily concerned. Amocacillin doesn't have any effect on sperm count. You can continue taking it as per your doctor's advise. General decline in health may have some impact on sperm count and amocacillin is a commonly used antibiotic for varieties of infections (health issues) which may have led to this perception about amocacillin.

I hope i have clarified your queries. Do write me for follow up queries. Please rate my reply. I wish you good health. Thank you.
