I was prescribed amoxicillin by my doctor after having been diagnosed with some pretty nasty tonsilitis. I took 4 a day at four different times stretched throughout the day during the full course (which in my case was for around 6 days). After around two days my throat no longer hurt and I was back to eating normal food. It worked really quickly and I was very happy that my GP knew exactly what they were talking about when prescribing it. There are a long list of possible side of effects for this medicine but I only really experienced general tiredness, which of course could have been more to do with the tonsilitis and not so much the medication!
