What Causes Tingling Sensation On The Lips And Tongue While On Amoxicillin?

Am I allergic to Amoxicillian or not? I don t want to be limited in the antibiotics I can be prescribed. It gave me tingling lips/tongue as well as itchy skin and eyes but I was able to take a 7 day oral dose without the need of medical help - I just took Benadryl.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Yes, based on your description, you are allergic to it and it would be best to avoid using it in the future because the allergic response will intensify with continued use.

You should see let your doctor know about your reaction.

I hope this helps
