The Online Clinic is now prepared to prescribe antibiotics on an emergency basis to patients with a tooth or gum infection, prior to them seeing their dentist. Many people find it difficult to get an emergency appointment with either their dentist or GP to get the necessary antibiotics to deal with an infection. We will prescribe either Metronidazole or Amoxicillin to patients for next day delivery. If the patient has an allergy to both of these medications, then we will consider an alternative.
It is essential that patients make an appointment with their dentist to ascertain the cause of the infection, as surgery may be required. Patients can access our emergency treatment by clicking here.
