Amoxil Generic

There are various infections that can be treated by Amoxil like ear infections, pneumonia, bladder infections, E. coli or salmonella infections and gonorrhoea. Amoxil is also used to treat children with sinusitis, strep throat and common colds and flu. Furthermore, it can be used in cases like skin infections, when they have been caused by bacterial strains. Sometimes, this drug is combined with clarithromycin, another antibiotic used to treat stomach ulcers successfully.

The brand name Amoxil tends to taste more like bubble game compared to the generic form. If you have infants or newborns under the age of three months, you must get a lower dosage of Amoxil prescribed compared to older children. Amoxil is considered to be the first choice by experts to treat common Paediatric infections that include sinusitis and ear infections.

If you feel rashes, fevers, itching, joint pain or swollen lymph nodes coming on – you will need to stop this medication.
