Was prescribed Amoxicillin last night for chest infection....I feel so very tired/fuzzy headed with it. Does anyone have experience of this?

    Hi Iris, I've been on it for 11 days but no side effects. Maybe your infection causing side effects?

    The chest infection is likely the culprit here.  You are probably breathing more shallow than normal which can cause fuzzy headedness.  Your body is doing everything it can to fight the infection and that can lead to being very tired.  Hopefully, you will be fine once you are well again.
