Stomach Upset
Abdominal pain, which is pain that occurs anywhere in the stomach region, is one of the common side effects of amoxicillin. Sometimes, the pain may be accompanied by vomiting.
Taking an amoxicillin dose with a meal may help to avoid abdominal pain. Eating easily digestible bland foods, such as crackers and soups, may help cope with stomach upsets related to amoxicillin. Severe, prolonged abdominal pain requires immediate medical attention, as another underlying cause may be the problem, and not the antibiotic.
