A high percentage of people with infectious mononucleosis have developed rashes during therapy with amoxicillin.

In a study conducted by Japanese researchers, seven Ixodes persulcatus (a microorganism) strains were susceptible to antibiotics, including Amoxil. Additionally, Amoxil in this analysis provided good protection against borreliosis in mice; and higher doses of the drug eliminated Lyme disease from all mice receiving the drug. In children with early Lyme disease, researchers compared amoxicillin with cefuroxime axetil (a broad-spectrum antibiotic) and found that both treatments were safe and effective.
