lalame 56 Posted December 10, 2016 Sleeved 09/06/16. 1st cold and sinus infection. Was prescribed 875mg of Augmentin by urgent care doctor who I told about surgery. Can anyone tell me if they have used Augmentin (Amoxicillin)? And what happened? Left a message for surgery staff. They were closed today.

Bufflehead 6,358 Posted December 10, 2016 As far as I know there are no contraindications for any antibiotics with sleeve gastrectomy. They were not on the list of "problem" meds I was given with my pre-surgery boot camp. I haven't actually taken any since surgery though so I can't give any personal experience.

happyaslarry 42 Posted December 10, 2016 Hi sweet I was on that antibiotic 7 days after surgery. I ended up very nauseous and heart palpitations and oral thrush. Keep in mind that it was only 7 days after my surgery and was through a complication post op. As far as having the surgery antibiotics for anyone should be fine. Just read the leaflet in the packet about side effects. Everyone is different and I gather my situation was a little different. Hope your feeling better soon!
