Hi all i have got a nasty uti at the moment and gp has given me antibiotics Amoxicillan, i did check about taking them with iron which he suggested 2 hours away from one another but not my carbimazole 2.5mgs which i take around 8.30am, would you leave antibiotic 2hr after carbi or just one hour? 🌟🌟

Rmichelle,

I'm surprised your GP didn't tell you to stop taking Carbimazole until the infection cleared.

Just rang pharmacist he said it is ok to take with carbi as it is only a 7 day course and only 2.5mgs.
