Can I Take Augmentin on an Empty Stomach?

Published in Health & Medicine 1 min read

It's generally recommended to take Augmentin with food. Taking it on an empty stomach can increase the risk of stomach upset.

Here are some reasons why:

  • Stomach irritation: Augmentin can irritate the stomach lining, and taking it on an empty stomach can worsen this effect.
  • Absorption: Food can sometimes help with the absorption of certain medications, including Augmentin.

If you have any concerns about taking Augmentin, it's best to talk to your doctor or pharmacist.
