Amoxil (active ingredient: amoxicillin) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Infections of the Ear, Nose, and Throat: Amoxil is used to treat infections such as otitis media, sinusitis, and pharyngitis/tonsillitis.
  2. Lower Respiratory Tract Infections: It is indicated for the treatment of infections like bronchitis and pneumonia.
  3. Genitourinary Tract Infections: Amoxil is used to treat infections of the urinary tract, including cystitis and pyelonephritis.
  4. Skin and Skin Structure Infections: It is used for the treatment of skin infections like cellulitis and impetigo.
  5. Helicobacter pylori Infection: In combination with other medications, Amoxil is indicated for the eradication of H. pylori to reduce the risk of duodenal ulcer recurrence.

Amoxil belongs to a class of drugs known as penicillin antibiotics, which work by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, leading to the destruction of bacteria.

You should take an Amoxicillin capsule every 12 hours (twice a day) or every 8 hours (three times a day) with or without food, depending on the type of infection that you have. Swallow the capsules whole with a full glass of water; do not chew or crush them. Drink plenty of fluids while using the capsules unless your doctor tells you otherwise.

Take it at the same time every day as prescribed by your doctor. Be sure to follow the directions on your prescription label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part you do not understand. Do not take more or less your prescribed dose of Amoxicillin or take it more often than prescribed by your doctor.

The recommended dosages of Amoxicillin capsules depend on the severity of the infection, the patient’s age, and weight. For adults, the usual dose is 250mg to 500mg, taken 3 times a day, every 8 hours or every 12 hours, depending on the severity of the infection. The dose may be lower for children, typically at 25 mg per kilogram of body weight per day, divided and given every 8 hours. However, the exact dose prescribed by a doctor may vary, so consult with your doctor or pharmacist to determine the appropriate dosage for your individual case.
