Answers:
Occasionally there will be a formulation that is coupled with a sugar, like lactose.. However, most antibiotics are formulated NOT to breakdown and are excreted in the urine or bile unchanged or possibly slightly oxidized in the liver.. Since there is no breakdown, your body absorbs no energy from it and there are no calories.. Therefore burning the pill would not be an accurate measure of calorie content..Health Question & Answer

Technically, everything has calories; calories are measured by burning the material, and everything will burn if you get it hot enough......Health Question & Answer

Pills, no..
Liquid, (like the pink amoxicillin) would have just a few, since it is flavored and sweetened.. In the whole course of treatment, you'd probable get like maybe 50 or something..Health Question & Answer
