my son who is 3yrs was given amoxicillin on 22nd December 2016 for a chest infection and also was provided with a inhaler and advised to give paracetamol if needed, is it normal for him to look very pale, exhausted more than usual and to have very lose nappies approx 3 nappy changes per hour ? Tia

Loose stool can be a side effect of amoxicillin. If indeed it is 3 nappies per hour that's a lot... (I mean full nappies) It's really how he is otherwise, is he his normal self, drinking well? If not get him checked out.
