The amoxicillin is an antibiotic and belongs to class of antibiotics called penicillins. It can be used if refrigerated  at 20-30 degree centigrade but can can not be used if frozen because the frozen amoxicillin looses its stability between 0-20 degree centigrade. For your confidence, read this study.

It can be used and stored if frozen to -30 C. I think you missed the last bit of the study you cited, it says at -30 C amoxicillin becomes stable and recommends it to be stored at this temperature if frozen. I'm Not sure how practical this would be for the average consumer as most people's freezers won't go that low.
