Is a side effect of amoxicillin, tinnitis?

No, I suffer with tinnitis & have never taken antibiotics & wouldn't make a connection if I had. Have you been exposed to any extra loud noises recently? Because that would be a major factor.

The worst problem is allergic reaction. This can be from developing hives to anaphylactic Shock. Any reaction should be reported to the doctor or hospital right away. If hives or breathing difficulties start an ambulance should be called immediately because it can get worse and can kill.\n-----------------------\nBrand Name(s):\nAmoxil, Larotid, Moxlin, Polymox, Trimox, Wymox \n\nDrug Class:\nPenicillin antibiotic\n\nSIDE EFFECTS: Side effects due to amoxicillin include diarrhea, dizziness, heartburn, insomnia, nausea, itching, vomiting, confusion, abdominal pain, easy bruising, bleeding, rash and allergic reactions. \n\nSpecial Concerns\n\nAmoxicillin can cause false results on some urine sugar tests for diabetics. \n\nThose who are prone to asthma, hay fever, hives, or allergies may be more likely to have an allergic reaction to a penicillin antibiotic. \n\nOral contraceptives may not be effective while you are taking amoxicillin; use other methods of contraception to avoid unplanned pregnancy.

The goal of treatment is to cure the infection. The ear canal should be cleaned of drainage to allow topical medications to work effectively. Depending on how severe the infection is, it may be necessary for a doctor to aspirate the ear as many times as twice a week for the first two or three weeks of treatment.\n\nEffective medications include eardrops containing antibiotics to fight infection, and corticosteroids to reduce itching and inflammation. Use of antibiotics to treat ear infections may result in treatment of the wrong cause of the infection because not all ear infections are bacterial; some are fungal, and it is possible to have both a bacterial and fungal ear infection.\n\nEar drops should be used abundantly (four or five drops at a time) in order to penetrate the end of the ear canal. If the ear canal is very swollen, a wick may be applied in the ear to allow the drops to travel to the end of the canal. Occasionally, pills may be used in addition to the topical medications. Analgesics may be used if pain is severe. Putting something warm against the ears may reduce pain.\n\nDo note that it is imperative that there is visualization of an intact tympanic membrane before any curretage or drops are used. This often requires a health professional, as the inflammation can obscure the view. Use of certain medications with a ruptured tympanic membrane can cause tinnitus, vertigo, dizziness and hearing loss in some cases.\n\nProtect ears from further damage. Do not scratch the ears or insert cotton swabs or other objects in the ears. Keep ears clean and dry, and do not let water enter the ears when showering, shampooing, or bathing.

Usually it is from water sitting in the ear canal. She should go back to the doctor now. I got one frm not draing my ears well after a shower one night. I usualy shower in the AM, but showered before i went to bed. From sleeping on one side, the water was able to leak further into my ear & sit there most of the night. I am a side sleeper. I had to go onto antibiotics too, but it went away fairly quickly.

Yes, it does for some.  Most often is ears being clogged and/or popping.  It's much worse when you have a cold and/or sinus infection.

ton - Treatment consists of painkillers and fluids; if caused by bacteria then antibiotics are also prescribed. Usually penicillin, or erythromycin if the patient is allergic to penicillin. Amoxicillin should not be used because if mononucleosis is mistaken as tonsillitis and amoxicillin is given, a rash might develop.\n\nWhen tonsillitis is caused by a virus, the length of illness depends on which virus is involved. Usually, a complete recovery is made within one week, however with some rare infections they may last to over 1 week to 2 weeks.\n\nstep throat - Antibiotic treatment will reduce symptoms slightly, minimize transmission, and reduce the likelihood of complications. Treatment consists of penicillin (orally for 10 days; or a single intramuscular injection of penicillin G). Erythromycin is recommended for penicillin-allergic patients. Second-line antibiotics include amoxicillin, clindamycin, and oral cephalosporins. Although symptoms subside within 4 days even without treatment, it is very important to start treatment within 10 days of onset of symptoms, and to complete the full course of antibiotics to prevent rheumatic fever, a rare but serious complication.\n\nAmoxicillin should be avoided for treatment of a sore throat if bacterial (swab) confirmation has not been obtained since it causes a distinctive rash if the true illness proves to be glandular fever, better known as mononucleosis. This rash is harmless but alarming. Mononucleosis itself, however, can be extremely dangerous if left untreated.\n\nsinusitis - Therapeutic measures include simple painkillers (aspirin, paracetamol (acetaminophen) or similar), inhaling steam, nasal irrigation or jala neti using a warm saline solution, hot drinks including tea and chicken soup, over-the-counter decongestants, and getting plenty of rest. If sinusitis doesn't improve within 48 hours, or is causing significant pain, one should see a doctor, who may prescribe antibiotics or nasal steroids. If the recommended doses and duration of antibiotic treatment(s) are ineffective, one should consult a doctor; who may suggest further treatment by a qualified specialist.\n\nIf left untreated, sinusitis can lead to bronchitis and pneumonia.\n\nFor chronic or recurring sinusitis, referral to an otolaryngologist is indicated for more specialist assessment and treatment, which may include nasal surgery.\n\nA recent advance in the treatment of sinusitis is a type of surgery called FESS - functional endoscopic sinus surgery, whereby normal clearance from the sinuses is restored by removing the anatomical and pathological obstructive variations that predispose to sinusitis. This replaces the less effective Caldwell-Luc surgery. Another recently developed treatment is balloon sinuplasty.\n\nimpossible follow these treatments

I suffer from various allergies to almost all antibiotics including ciprofloxacin ("Ciproxin"). I got dizzy, drowsy, and eventually throw up what feels like bricks on that stuff. Afterwards I felt nauseous for about an hour.\n\nSure, most antibiotics can cause drowsiness. They usually talk about heavy machinery and driving. If you do suffer an unusally bad reaction then you should reconsult with your doctor to find a less reactive medication.\n\nWhenever you start any new antibiotic medicine you should wait 1-2 hours before doing anything potentially dangerous. It could save your life. Some people may be fine until they reach a certain age and then *BAM* they're allergic. So, even if you've taken penicillin all your life you may find one day that it makes you really ill. Of course, drinking alcohol and taking antibiotics is also a no-no because it not only reduces the effectiveness but again it can cause seriously bad reactions. If you're taking anything else along with it you should always mention that to the doctor because they can look up known drug interactions and change your medication accordingly.

I deal a lot with people with gallstones and to be honest with you I've never heard of the connection.  If you are on antibiotics they might be making you itch and whatnot.
