Yesterday I started on amoxicillin (the liquid form as I'm not good with tablets) for a lingering sinus infection and I took one dose in the morning, one at about 5:30pm and the last one at 11pm.
today I was reading the sheet it comes with (shouldn't have done that!) and it said not to take at night!? I don't know what to do as I took a dose at 5:30 and now don't know if I should take the last dose of the day at 11pm again :( I'm worried something's going to happen :(

What exactly did it say hun? I've always taken it at night to space doses evenly, I use capsule form.

under 'how to take this medicine' it just says Do not give doses of Amoxicillin at night.
I've had the capsule version before and taken it at night and not had any problems so I don't really understand why it says that. I always have food with my doses.

Don't worry about it. I've taken it at night before I go to bed hasn't been a problem :)
