Hello
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
It's not harful if it is taken more once or twice.
If antibiotic course is long then consult your doctor or pharmacist for accurate dose and confirmation.
High antibiotics causes many side effects like decreasing in normal gut bacteria, diarrhea etc.
Please take milk along with and also anti acidity drugs.
Hope this will be helpful to you.
