Thanks for the reminder, I need to be more consistent about this.

When I worked in the pharmacy, I would see scripts come in often for people who had heart disease that were going to the dentist, the standard was 4 amoxicillin before the trip to the dentist, to protect the heart. There's definitely a link between the two.
