digoxin and amoxicillin?

So I had a pretty crappy cold about a week and a half ago, now being on digoxin I can't take cold meds so I stick it out. Well the cold is now over and my teeth are hurting. I see no signs of abscess' and my mom thinks it might be a sinus infection. No from what I've read online they usually give amoxcillin to treat it. My question is has anyone else on digoxin taken amoxcillin? Is it safe. Being on dig I know there's a lot of stuff we can and can not take. I know my best bet would be to talk to my Dr. But I don't know when or if I n even go and see her. I'm just curious about the dig and amoxicillin. Thanks

Sounds like a lot of self diagnosis going on.. not the best way to be sure.

Still, the Pharmacist may be able to answer the question, but they may wonder why you ask if you don't have a prescription in hand.  

Have you done a search on the web for interactions? You may find some professional information there, here on this blog you get experience from patients, in this case heart patients.

Good luck,

Your pharmacist is a good person to talk to.  He or she should be able to tell you if there is a drug interaction.  Good luck.
