DESCRIPTION: - Amoxicillin is semi-synthetic
amino penicillin, an analogue of ampicillin, with
a Good spectrum of bactericidal activity against
many gram-Positive and gram-negative microorganisms.
Amoxycillin is stable in gastric acid and may
be given without regard to meals. It acts through
inhibition of biosynthesis of cell wall mucopeptide
and bacterial cell explodes due to internal pressure.
Its oral absorption is better and has higher and
more sustained blood levels. It has low incidences
of diarrhoea. It is active against shigella and
H.Influenza.It is also more active against those
microbes which are sensitive to PenicillinG; in
addition many gram-negative bacilli like E.Colli,
proteus, Salmonella are inhibited. Cloxacillin
has an Isoxazolyl side chain and is highly penicillinase
as well as acid resistant. It is more active than
methicillin against penicillinase producing Staph.
It is absobed from gut. A combination of Amoxicillin
and Cloxacillin is clinically effective against
a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative
organisms including penicilinase-producing bacteria.
. It also contains Lactobacillus, which is a useful
bacteria, which produces lactic acid in our body,
when it is given with antibiotics it prevents
the untoward effects of antibiotics use in prolonged
treatment .In addition to that, it maintains normal
G.I.T flora & improves Vitamin B. Factor.
It is quite soothing for the G.I.T system i.e.
why it is mostly recommended with ant bactericides
and antifungal remedies.
Indications:
. Respiratory track infections including bronchitis,
sinusitis, otitis media.
. Genito urinary, skin, soft tissues infections.
. ENT infections due to susceptible strain of
gram negative organism like
. Influenzae, E. Coli, P Mirabilis, N Gonorrhoea,
G –ve organisms like Streptococci, D. Pnuemoniae,
Non Penicillin producing staphylococci
